With all new configurations, finishes and features, the FN 15 TAC3 carbine gives you everything you need in an AR-style rifle from top to bottom, made to FN’s exacting standards. Built from a MIL-SPEC foundation with HP/MPI-tested and certified bolt and M16-style bolt carrier group with mid-length gas system and H buffer, the TAC3 performs reliably. Superior accuracy and performance come from the company’s signature chrome-lined, cold hammer-forged barrel made from FN proprietary steel, fully free-floated within a Hodge Defense-designed wedge lock handguard. The rigid handguard, affixed with a proprietary barrel nut and anti-rotation technology, provides continues 12 o’clock rail space and multiple M-LOK attachment points for lights, lasers and other accessories while minimizing deflection during hard use. Outfitted with ambidextrous charging handle and selector, and FN’s custom 6-position buttstock, pistol grip and magazine, the FN 15 TAC3 is a streamlined, rugged carbine ready for any situation.

general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
Introduced in 1964, the 223 Remington is the civilian version of the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. Although very similar to the 222 Remington it has a slightly longer case and a shorter neck, giving it greater powder capacity and thus higher velocity--which was necessary to meet military penetration requirements at longer range. NOTE: 223 Remington ammunition may be safely fired in any 5.56x45mm chamber, but 5.56x45mm ammunition SHOULD NOT BE USED in a 223 chamber! Standard is a 55-grain bullet at 3240 feet per second, with lighter bullets somewhat faster and heavier bullets a bit slower. The 223 is the most popular 22 centerfire today, and possiby the most popular centerfire cartridge. Ammunition choices are legion, as are choices in firearms. The 223 is an accurate cartridge ideally suited for varmint hunting out to beyond 300 yards, and with heavy-bullet loads designed for the purpose is used effectively by many deer hunters.
