Description
The FN 15 Guardian applies the FN battle-proven blueprint to a brand new MSR making FN quality accessible to all home defenders and sport shooters. Proven to perform on any front this new carbine has the critical upgrades for tack-driving accuracy with a nitrided 16-inch CMV steel MIL-B-11595 barrel and 15-inch free-float aluminum handguard. The mid-length gas system reduces recoil impulse with a low-profile gas block impinging gas to the mil-spec bolt carrier. – At 6.6 lbs. the light fast-handling carbine includes the right upgrades for constant control. The pistol grip and magazines are in-mold stippled for superior grip with the 6-position stock offering a tight lock-up and an ideal cheek weld.
