Overview
The FN SCAR 15P is a compact 5.56x45mm AR pistol directly modeled after the FN SCAR-SC personal defense weapon. Engineered for adaptability and reliable performance in a minimized footprint, this platform integrates key SCAR design elements into a pistol configuration, optimized for maneuverability.
Key Features
Design and Construction
The SCAR 15P features a robust aluminum receiver finished with a durable black anodization, providing resistance to wear and environmental factors. Its 7.50-inch barrel is precision hammer-forged and chrome-lined, a critical specification for mitigating bore wear and facilitating consistent performance over extended service life. The design incorporates a Picatinny rail rear attachment point, enabling direct integration of a compatible pistol brace.
Ergonomics and Controls
This platform is equipped with an SB Tactical FS1913 folding pistol brace, a drop-in component that enhances utility by allowing for compact storage and transport while maintaining operational readiness. The SCAR 15P features fully ambidextrous controls, including the charging handle and safety selector, to accommodate varied user preferences and operational requirements efficiently.
Operational Reliability
The selection of a hammer-forged, chrome-lined steel barrel contributes significantly to the system’s operational reliability and durability, ensuring sustained accuracy and component longevity under demanding use cycles. This construction method is a hallmark of FN’s commitment to robust firearm systems, built to maintain performance integrity.
