Patriot Ordnance P415 Edge 5.56 x 45mm NATO Semi Auto Rifle, 16.5-Inch barrel 14.5-Inch M-LOK Handguard, Tungsten Finish Md: 01146
The P415 was engineered over 10 years ago to be virtually unstoppable in unfavorable conditions. It is a product of continuous development and improvement to the AR platform that no other rifle company has attempted. The reliability has been tested time after time, and the operating system perfected. E2 Extraction Technology, complete ambidextrous fire controls, modular free floating rail platform, and numerous internal improvements make it the pinnacle of all-purpose 5.56 caliber sporting rifles.
For 2017, we’ve cut the bulk. To minimize weight and maximize shooter comfort, the new P415 Edge features a redesigned handguard, reducing the size from the original by nearly 20%, making the width a mere 1.75 inches. Not only does this drop the weight down to 7 lbs, it provides even better ergonomics to the shooter. The P415 simply will not fail when you need it most.

The 5.56X45mm NATO cartridge was designed by James Sullivan, a member of Eugene Stoner's engineering team that developed both the M16 rifle and its original cartridge. The 5.56X45mm NATO was adopted by the U.S. military in 1964 and by NATO in 1980. With bullet diameter of .224-inch, the original M193 military cartridge used a 55-grain bullet at 3250 fps; the current M855A1 cartridge, developed by FN, uses a 62.5-grain bullet at 3020 fps, offering greater range and better penetration. The civilian version of the 5.56X45mm is 223 Remington; the cartridges are dimensionally identical but military chamber dimensions and specifications for military brass are different. It is considered safe to use 223 Remington ammo in a 5.56X45MM NATO chamber, but not a good idea to use 5.56X45mm ammo in a rifle specifically chambered for the 223 Remington. Although the stopping power of .22-caliber bullets remains controversial the 5.56X45mm has served well in now multiple generations of M16 rifles. — Craig Boddington
