The flat dark earth 30-round FN SCAR 15P VPR .300 Blackout pistol (FN part no. 38101243) is a compact piston-driven pistol from FN America with a 7.5-inch barrel and a steel magazine. FN America built the 15P from the SCAR-SC personal defense weapon, with a short-stroke gas piston and an adjustable low-flash gas regulator in place of direct impingement. The receiver is one machined piece of hard-anodized aluminum with rails at four positions, and dual non-reciprocating charging handles stay put while you shoot. It ships without a stock or brace, leaving the rear rail open for the accessory you choose. It is a serious short-barrel gun for shooters who want a gas-piston alternative to the AR-15 pistol.

Key Specifications

• Chambering is .300 AAC Blackout, a cartridge that handles supersonic and subsonic loads and suits short barrels.
• The barrel is 7.5 inches, cold hammer-forged and chrome-lined for durability, which keeps the pistol compact.
• The barrel is free-floated, which helps accuracy by keeping the handguard off the barrel.
• The muzzle device is a three-prong flash hider, which tames flash at the muzzle.
• The operating system is a short-stroke gas piston with an adjustable low-flash regulator, which FN says improves reliability over direct impingement.
• The receiver is one-piece machined hard-anodized aluminum in flat dark earth, with a solid platform for optics and accessories.
• Rails are MIL-STD-1913 at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock positions, which gives room for optics, lights and grips.
• The charging handles are dual, ambidextrous and non-reciprocating, so they stay still while firing and can be swapped left or right.
• The controls include an ambidextrous safety lever and magazine release, which suit left- and right-handed shooters.
• The magazine is a 30-round steel-body unit with a low-friction follower, and one is included.
