The new Anderson Manufacturing AM-10 Breacher expands the company’s .308 Generation II lineup. The Breacher brings a pistol-based variant to the line, adding compact firepower with a stabilizing brace for control in a tactical or defensive scenario.
Anderson Manufacturing AM-10 Breacher
The Breacher joins three rifles in the Generation II lineup. It comes fitted with a 12.5-inch barrel with a one-in-ten twist. Chambered in .308 Win, the Breacher utilizes a mid-length gas system. Externally, an M-LOK handguard provides accessory attachment points. Meanwhile, a Magpul MOE-K2 grip and SBA3 Pistol Stabilizing Brace help contribute to better control.
“The Breacher perfectly rounds out the AM-10 lineup with a compact firearm that packs a bunch,” said Truman Brough, Process Engineer, Anderson Manufacturing. “Inspired by short-barrel variants of battle rifles used by armed forces worldwide, the Breacher offers the power of a full-size cartridge in a lightweight, compact package. Equip this AM-10 with your favorite sights, and you have a hand ‘do-it-all’ firearm that’s ready for almost anything.”
The pistol ships with one PMAG 20LR/SR GEN M3 magazine, owner’s manual, AM-10 Generation II sticker and rifle cable lock. The AM-10 Breacher retails for $1,000. For even more info, please visit andersonmanufacgturing.com.
Editor’s Take:
We love seeing new products, and the AM-10 Breacher looks to provide good value in a pistol format. Despite potential anti-gun legislation attacking large-format pistols, Anderson Manufacturing brings another AR pistol to market. It blends AR basics with a few smart upgraded components preferred by most shooters. This package comprises a solid entry- to mid-level option in an AR pistol design. It provides everything you need to build your AR pistol home defense package.
