About this product

The Maxim Defense PDX 505-SPS is a compact AR-style pistol built around Maxim’s SCW Pistol System for a streamlined rear profile. It ships with the SCW Pistol System in lieu of a stock or brace, removing protruding angles that can snag while handling. The SCW Pistol System weighs approximately 5.3 ounces, trimming more than ten ounces compared to the SCW stock. The design includes a rear single-point QD swivel mount positioned for use with a sling.
