The Maxim Defense PDX(TM), developed from the SOCOM PDW solicitation, is purpose-built to meet the rigorous demands of the Tier 1 community. Designed for dominating close-quarter encounters and achieving maximum energy on target, the PDX(TM) sets a new standard for performance. With an overall length of just 18.75 inches and a barrel length of 5.5 inches, the PDX(TM) delivers groundbreaking power and performance in a compact platform. Available in Black, Arid, and Urban Grey colors, it weighs 5 lbs 11 oz. At the heart of the PDX(TM) is the Maxim SCW(TM) system, a patent-pending design that reduces the stock length to just 4 inches. The integrated BCG with interchangeable buffer weights ensures maximum performance and versatility without compromising form or functionality. Utilizing a Direct Impingement system, the PDX(TM) offers reliable operation. Equipped with Maxim's HATEBRAKE(TM) muzzle booster, this patent-pending device significantly reduces recoil, minimizes the flash signature, redirects gases and concussion waves downrange away from the operator, and enhances overall performance. Configured as an SCW Pistol System with an SCW Pistol Brace Housing, the PDX(TM) features an ALG Combat Trigger (ACT), providing enhanced control and responsiveness in high-stakes situations.
