At Shot Show, Flux Defense unveiled their newest creation to the world—the Raider 365. This new product from Flux stole the show on Range Day, and at Flux and Agency’s booth on the show floor, everyone wanted hands-on experience with Flux’s newest chassis. Now, Flux Defense has rolled out preorders for their game-changing product.
The Raider 365 is a PDW chassis built to support SIG’s popular P365 platform, offering a highly concealable, sleek, and modular PDW option. Flux’s Raider 365 has the potential to completely redefine the micro-compact market in ways no one has yet imagined. What Flux Defense is offering in this small form factor enhances capabilities of the P365 platform exponentially.
The concealed carry-focused Raider 365 can be holstered IWB with a Kydex holster designed by the Flux team. It also easily fits in the SOCS Vertx fanny pack. Flux is also designing a Sling Bag and shoulder rig that can be concealed under jackets and more.
Below is the product description and key features of the Flux Raider 365.
Product Description
In order to help as many people reserve a Raider 365, we are opening up pre-orders with deposits. We estimate that we can fulfill these pre-orders within a few months but we are putting 180 days as our deadline. The deposit is fully refundable on request.
Is that a PDW in your pants or are you just happy to see me?
The Raider 365 is the world’s smallest PDW. It is smaller with a 4” suppressor than the already tiny TP9 without a suppressor.
It would be better to compare the Raider 365 against handguns. The Raider 365 is only 1″ longer than a Glock 17 despite having the ability to use a 6” inch barrel and 3-4 points of contact.
The Raider 365 is the product of years of R&D focused on one goal – how to make a truly concealable baby MP5 that you can draw as fast as your handgun.
Why? Well, it’s 2024 and we can all accept that if your PCC is the size of a 300 blackout carbine, your weapon is underpowered for its footprint.
If you’re using 9mm, your weapon system shouldn’t be larger than a regular handgun.
Despite giving you most of the accuracy and range advantages of an MP5, MPX, or TP9, it’s still stupid fast, like as fast or faster than a handgun.
In our testing we have completed the Dicken Drill in 3.17 seconds from concealed draw and the Bill Drill from appendix holster in 1.52 seconds.
The Nitty Gritty:
-More velocity than pistol’s with our optional 6” barrel (yeah that’s longer than an MP5K)
-Faster reloads than any pistol or PDW with our patented Speedload System as seen in the original Flux Raider.
-Up to 50 rounds on the gun with optional mag extensions
-Optional holster that can be used both IWB (In Waistband) or OWB (Outside Waistband) using the Safariland 3 hole QLS system for duty.
-Built for duty out of 7075 Aluminum and S7 Steel.
-Type 3 hard anodized
-70% Lighter than an MPX or MP5
-Optional fixed red dot sight.
– Uses 365 Safety levers
-Brace or Stock option available – Longer Length of pull stock is compatible with most full size duty lights like the Surefire X300. Braced model is compatible with the Streamlight TLR-7 family of pistol lights.
-Built-in shroud that protects your thumb and allows you to C-clamp for even flatter shooting.
Its time to overmatch, America. Make yourself hard to kill.
The Flux Raider 365 is available for preorder right now with a down payment of $100 and will retail between $799 and $849. If you have a P365 platform and want to expand its capabilities into a sleek and highly concealable PDW, this would be something worthy of your research.
