FN 15 Guardian — Ready, Light, and Laser-Focused
Think FN quality, stripped of the fluff. The FN 15 Guardian takes FN’s battle-proven DNA and packages it into a fast-handling 16" carbine that’s equally at home on the range or in the safe at home for defense. If you want a reliable, lightweight MSR with real upgrades (not just sticker parts), this is it.
Why it’s worth a look
• Light & quick: 6.6 lbs — easy to shoulder, faster transitions.
• Precision-ready barrel: nitrided 16" CMV steel (MIL-B-11595) for long life and repeatable accuracy.
• Smooth recoil, quicker follow-ups: mid-length gas system with a low-profile gas block feeding a mil-spec BCG.
• Lots of real estate for toys: 15" free-float aluminum handguard with 24 M-LOK slots and anti-rotation pinch-lock for rock-solid accessory mounting.
• Control where it counts: in-mold stippled pistol grip (and mags) for sure handling in any weather, plus a 6-position stock for fast, repeatable cheek welds.
• Ready for optics: free-float M-LOK handguard and solid upper rail make sighting/setup painless.
