Description
The CMMG Banshee Mk47 is a 7.62x39mm AR-pattern pistol with a 12.5-inch barrel, a black Cerakote finish and an ambidextrous manual safety (brand part no. 76A1D0AAB). CMMG builds the Mk47 platform on billet receivers sized for the cartridge, and the magwell takes AK-pattern magazines, so a 30-round Magpul PMAG AK/AKM magazine feeds it. A direct-impingement system, an adjustable gas block and the quick-deploying RipBrace make it a compact personal defense or range pistol. Full-length M-LOK slots on the handguard leave room for lights, lasers and grips.
