Maxim Defense once brought us the PDX, pushing the limits of how much can be fit into a very small package. Rolling into 2022, they've just announced a series of complete firearms and suppressors. While we get ready and head out the door for SHOT SHOW 2022, check out the details on their new lineup.


St Cloud, MN – Maxim Defense, the premiere manufacturer in PDW technologies, is unveiling a new line of firearms, suppressors, and ammunition at SHOT Show 2022. And for the third year in a row, Maxim is a proud supporter of the SHOT Show Industry Day at the Range (lane SR-40 and LR-3).

“Needless to say, we've been hard at work!” said Maxim Defense EVP Sales and Marketing, Dave Larson. “At the range this year, we're offering live-fire demos of all our new products- out large frame MD.11 in 6.5 Creedmoor and .308 Winchester, our SDX integral suppressed firearms, all of our new suppressors, oh, and our new frangible ammunition.” “It's another year of new and groundbreaking product development at Maxim.”
