CMMG announced today the release of the FourSix, the first-ever AR to hit the civilian market chambered in 4.6x30mm.
More about the CMMG FourSix
With an impressive 40-round magazine capacity, light recoil, and great penetration at close distances, CMMG’s FourSix is here to reimagine the Personal Defense Weapon.

The 4.6x30mm round is best known for its superior penetration at close distances and for its extremely flat-shooting ballistics out to 150 yards. With its lightweight characteristics and relatively small dimensions, the 4.6x30mm cartridge allows the shooter to carry more ammo, which means more follow up shots when needed most. The soft recoil, combined with a modified direct impingement operating system, allows users to make rapid shots down range and on target.

CMMG’s FourSix is built on the company’s BANSHEE Mk4 platform while pioneering new technologies with its patent-pending Micro Gas Block and patent-pending CMMG 40RD 4.6x30mm Magazine. It comes standard with an 8-inch barrel and features AR-15 controls and modularity. Best of all, the magazine will seat into a standard AR-15 sized magwell, which means users can pair an existing AR-15 lower receiver with a CMMG FourSix upper receiver and the patent-pending CMMG 40RD 4.6x30mm Magazine, giving you the opportunity to ship FourSix components directly to your home.

First introduced in 1999, the 4.6x30mm cartridge is known for its pairing with the Heckler & Koch MP7. By design, the 4.6x30mm is a relatively small and lightweight cartridge with minimal felt recoil meant to compete with the 5.7x28mm. There has never been a 4.6x30mm chambered firearm released in the U.S. civilian market until now.
