FN America FN15 TAC3 5.56 NATO 16" - AR-15 Rifle

Professional-grade in 5.56 NATO and uncompromising in construction — the FN America FN15 TAC3 5.56 NATO 16" is built for users who demand the same reliability from their rifle that Special Operations personnel depend on daily.

Built as a semi-automatic AR-15 rifle around 5.56 NATO and a mid-length direct impingement system, the FN America FN15 TAC3 5.56 NATO 16" delivers a proven AR-15 experience from first round to last.

Built Beyond Mil-Spec: Mil-spec is the minimum acceptable standard; this 5.56 NATO AR-15 rifle exceeds it throughout. Components are selected for the tightest tolerances and best available materials, not the lowest cost.

Consistent Performance Under Pressure: Reliability when conditions are bad, ammunition is dirty, and the rifle is hot is what separates professional-grade platforms from recreational ones. This rifle delivers that consistency.

Match-Accurate Architecture: Cold hammer forged or precision button-rifled barrels, hand-fitted components, and proper headspace ensure accuracy that outlasts most optics mounted on it.

Professional Pedigree: The same manufacturing standards that supply military and law enforcement contracts go into every 5.56 NATO rifle that comes off this line — civilian availability, professional build quality.
