# Assault Pistol - Guns For Sale

Assault pistols (also called large-frame or high-capacity pistols) are compact semi-automatic firearms chambered in rifle calibers such as 5.56 NATO or 7.62x39mm. They use short barrels and bring the operating system of a rifle platform into a pistol-sized package.

Popular examples include the Mini Draco (AK platform) and the Sig Sauer MPX (AR platform). Most feature Picatinny rails for optics and accessories and are compatible with pistol braces that improve control when firing. They accept standard rifle magazines from their respective platforms.

Assault pistols are used for close-quarters home defense, range shooting, and tactical training where a full-length rifle is impractical.
