GQ Armory is well known for building refined, high-quality, and performance-driven rifles. GQ’s philosophy is to push the AR-15 platform to its limits while creating an aesthetically pleasing rifle at the same time. The design and engineering teams at GQ approaches silencers with the same level of passion as they do for their rifles. GQ Armory is proud to introduce its newest silencer to the market—the Onyx K .300 Blackout Silencer.

The new silencer from GQ is optimized for .300 Blackout. GQ teamed up with Otter Creek Labs to design a silencer that delivers amazing sound performance in a compact form factor. The Onyx K is constructed out of titanium, the silencer is only 6” long and weighs a mere 8.4 oz. The Onyx doesn’t feature a cerakote finish, which easily loses its color and collects scratches.
GQ coated the Onyx K in the premium DLC (Diamond Like Coating) finished keeping that rich black color with superior scratch resistance.

The Onyx K is full auto-rated and optimized for .300 Blackout super and subsonic ammunitions. You can run up to .300 Win Mag through this silencer. Each silencer comes with your choice of a titanium 5/8×24 direct thread mount with taper or a titanium Atlas Ti. Allowing the end user the flexibility to find a muzzle device that fits their needs.

Below, are the product description and specs for the Onyx K .300 Blackout silencer.

Product Description

The next gen PDW .300 Blackout K silencer is here! Built true to the GQ Armory design ethos, the Onyx K was developed to be the ultimate lightweight, compact, and QUIETEST PDW silencer for its size. Developed with Otter Creek Labs, this silencer is intended specifically for .300 blackout and delivers amazing sound performance given it’s compact size and weight. Constructed of full grade 5 titanium, this silencer weighs in at a mere 8.4 oz and is only 6″ long. Forget cheap cerakote that scratches easily, each Onyx K comes coated in premium DLC (Diamond Like Coating) for it’s superior scratch and temperature resistance, but also beautiful finish. The Onyx-K is full auto rated for .300 blackout and can handle up to .300 WM with a responsible firing schedule, though we highly recommend this silencer for .300 blackout because that is what we developed it for. Each silencer ships standard with your choice of a titanium 5/8×24 direct thread mount with taper or a titanium Atlas Ti (Q Plan B style) mount for use with taper fast attach muzzle devices like the Q Cherry Bomb (what we use on our guns), Rearden MFG, and Liberty Precision units. We use the industry standard 1.375×24 internal thread which allows for the flexibility to run whatever attachment method you prefer.
