This specific firearm configuration refers to a rifle or pistol built by Andro Corp chambered in the .300 Blackout cartridge. This cartridge is known for its versatility, offering both subsonic and supersonic loads, making it suitable for various applications ranging from suppressed close-quarters engagements to medium-range hunting. The “300 Blackout” designation clearly indicates the cartridge, while “Andro Corp” specifies the manufacturer.
The adoption of this configuration provides several advantages. Its compact size and compatibility with AR-15 platforms allow for easy integration and customization. Ballistically, the .300 Blackout offers improved performance in short-barreled rifles compared to the 5.56 NATO round. Development of the .300 Blackout was largely driven by the need for a cartridge that could deliver greater stopping power from a short-barreled AR-15, particularly when suppressed.
