The Fix by Q : The Future of the Precision Bolt-Action Rifle
When the engineering team at Q LLC (led by Kevin Brittingham) set out to build The Fix, they didn’t want to create just another bolt-action rifle in a heavy, clunky chassis. They wanted to create a completely new category: a lightweight, modular, and folding precision tool that offers the ergonomics of a gas gun with the surgical accuracy of a match-grade bolt gun. The result is the lightest and most innovative bolt-action rifle on the market today.
At Honey Badger Gun, we recognize The Fix as a masterclass in modern utility. Whether you are trekking miles into the backcountry for an elite mountain hunt or competing in a Precision Rifle Series (PRS) match, The Fix provides a level of portability and mechanical excellence that traditional rifles simply cannot match. It is not just a rifle; it is the “Fix” for everything wrong with legacy bolt-action designs.
Re-Engineering the Bolt Gun: Technical Excellence
The Fix is defined by several proprietary features that separate it from every other rifle in the precision space. To understand The Fix is to understand the “Science of Q”:
1. The One-Piece Aluminum Receiver
Traditional bolt guns rely on a separate receiver bedded into a stock or bolted into a chassis, which adds unnecessary weight and creates potential points of failure. The Fix utilizes a one-piece 7075-T6 aluminum receiver. This “monolithic” approach creates a rock-solid foundation for the barrel and bolt, significantly increasing structural rigidity while keeping the total weight of the rifle under 6 lbs (depending on configuration).
2. The 45-Degree Short Throw Bolt
Speed is life, even on a bolt-action platform. The Fix features a high-speed, 45-degree bolt throw. This short lift allows for lightning-fast cycling of the action without the risk of your hand impacting your optic or losing your cheek weld. Combined with the oversized bolt knob and a bolt that runs on glass-smooth rails, the action is fast, reliable, and incredibly efficient in high-stress environments.
3. The Fully Adjustable Folding Stock
Precision requires a perfect interface between the shooter and the rifle. The Fix features a proprietary folding stock that is fully adjustable for length of pull and cheek height without the need for specialized tools. Unlike “budget” folders, Q’s hinge is rock-solid and features a massive lock-up area, ensuring zero play and a repeatable zero. When folded, The Fix becomes incredibly compact, fitting into standard backpacks or discrete carry cases.
