MD:15 OTHER WEAPON
Designed for shooters seeking a compliance-focused AR-style other weapon with uncompromising performance, the Maxim Defense MD:15 OTHER Weapon brings together compact handling, premium components, and proven reliability in one refined platform. Chambered in 5.56 NATO and built off the trusted MD:15 system, this configuration delivers the durability and performance expected from Maxim Defense while incorporating features commonly associated with compliance-focused setups.
This configuration features a 12.3” barrel outfitted with the Maxim Defense Hatebrake™ muzzle device, paired with a Maxim CCS pistol brace, vertical foregrip, and 10-round magazine configuration. An overall length exceeding 26” helps maintain its intended platform classification, while the Hiperfire PDI drop-in trigger provides a clean, responsive trigger pull for enhanced shootability. The 8.5” M-LOK™ compatible handguard and MIL-SPEC lower receiver components offer excellent modularity, control, and reliability in a compact footprint.
At just 6.5 lbs and measuring 26.5” collapsed, the MD:15 OTHER Weapon is lightweight, maneuverable, and purpose-built for serious civilian shooters. Whether on the range or integrated into a compliance-focused firearm setup, this platform delivers the balance, function, and performance expected from a premium Maxim Defense firearm.
