For shooters who prioritize stopping power in a compact platform, the right AR pistol can deliver both controllability and terminal performance.

Performance and Ballistics

The CMMG BANSHEE MK10 is built around the 10mm cartridge, and with its 8″ 4140CM barrel the platform is optimized to extract the highest practical ballistic performance from that round in a compact package. The 1/2×28 TPI barrel threading and included CMMG Zeroed Linear Compensator help tame muzzle rise and concussion while preserving velocity—critical for follow-up shots under stress.

Why 10mm?

10mm delivers superior energy and penetration compared to many pistol calibers at handgun-range distances. In an 8″ barrel, the BANSHEE MK10 gives you a hard-hitting defensive option without the bulk of a full carbine.

Reliable Feeding and Durable Construction

The Mk10 accepts Glock-pattern magazines—compatible with many shooters’ existing 10mm Glock mag collections—and ships with a 30rd SGM Tact magazine included, offering capacity and proven reliability. The upper is machined from billet 6061 T6 aluminum and the lower is forged 7075 T6 aluminum, a combination that balances precision and strength for long-term durability.

The CMMG Ripbrace provides a compact, rapidly deployable support option, and the EML 7″ M-LOK handguard offers full-length M-LOK slots on both sides and the bottom plus M-LOK between top Picatinny sections, giving ample real estate for lights, lasers, and vertical grips.
