These posts always weird me out. if you're bringing in an R version why not the super short barrel? If you're bringing in a long barrel why not get it long enough to be NR?
This is neither wicked cool nor actually practical.
Because that is what FN offers for civilian market

From what I understand the short version is supposed to be only available to law enforcement and military, which is probably why they are harder to find and people that want a short barrel version usually buy the longer one and do a short barrel swap
Also I do not believe FN make a barrel for it any longer then 16" so it is what it is, if you see one with a longer barrel it is likely an aftermarket barrel
very sad state of affairs. the 16" thing makes sense with america's SBR laws.

CMMG makes a short barrel that will drop into this thing with minimal work as long as you're handy with a power drill and own a vice and some punches. Look up barrel swaps on YouTube.
Another sponsoring business on this site should be able to get the barrel from the USA for anyone interested.
These are indeed designed for the US civilian market, as the barrel isn't even actually 16" long. The rifled part is much shorter, and only the pinned and welded flash hider sleeve is what gets this thing to the US legal length of 16".
Did you do the barrel swap yourself? I really wanted to do mine but chicken out and had herron arms do mine who only lives 40 minutes away. I was afraid I would ended up destroying it somehow. I looks pretty easy tho.
Wonder if someone would make an NR barrel for this? I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I didn't have to wait 4 months for a transfer
Hen I’m curious where is the charging handle
