FAQ On FN FNC 223 REM Registered Receiver

• What is a Fabrique Nationale FNC?

The Fabrique Nationale FNC (“Fusil Nouveau Type Carabine”) emerged from the commercial failure that was the FN CAL. The FN CAL was, itself, a scaled-down version of the hugely popular FN FAL which debuted in the early 1950s and was chambered for the 7.62x51mm NATO-standard, full-powered rifle cartridge.

• What are the different configurations of the FNC rifle?

The FNC produced in two primary configurations: a standard rifle and short (carbine) length.

The “Standard” Model 2000 rifle and the “Short” Model 7000 carbine equipped with barrels with 6 right-hand grooves and a 178 mm (1:7 in) rifling twist rate used to stabilize the longer and heavier Belgian SS109 bullet.

• When did the FN FNC come out?

The FNC  developed between 1975–1977 for NATO standardization trials, as a less expensive alternative to the M16 rifle. The rifle’s design is based on the FNC 76 prototype, which itself originated from the commercially unsuccessful FN CAL rifle.

• Who uses FN FNC?

Slightly modified, it remains the main service rifle of the Swedish Armed Forces. The FNC was finally adopted by the Belgian Armed Forces in 1989, as a service-wide replacement for the 7.62×51mm NATO FN FAL, after having been issued in small numbers to airborne infantry units for several years.

• What replaced the FN FNC?

The FN FNC was Belgium’s previous service rifle that was recently replaced by the FN SCAR. Fabrique Nationale, or FN–as many of us know them, is one of the world’s premier arms manufacturers and they provide a number of weapons to the United States as well as to the international market.

• Is FN better than HK?

The overall feeling of the HK VP9 is a little bit better than the FN 509. It just feels better in the hand. That said, the FN 509 is still a very ergonomic handgun. For me, I seem to be able to grip it a little bit tighter than the HK VP9.
