I don't know - is this the next "must have"?

"The FN 15 TAC3 features a Hodge Defense-designed wedge-lock rail system with a proprietary barrel nut featuring anti-rotation technology for extreme rigidity and reduced deflection."

I personally don't see any major selling points aside from the Hodge rail. It's a 16" mid-length with hodge rail and radian charging handle/safety. Their MSRP is approaching rifles with better components/enhancements.

The Israeli lookin furniture and magazine is a nice touch.

It's the same rail that came on the Tactical II except longer.

FN CHF Government Barrel
Zev/Hodge Wedge Lock rail
Radian charging handle
Radian Ambi Safety
I think it's a solid competitor to the DDM4 V7.

Which rifles are offering better components/enhancements for MSRP of $1600?

CHF barrel, 15inch hodge designed rail, plenty of QD sockets, and a decent CH it seems. I would have preferred them to stick with the Magpul furniture but that is subjective anyways. If it hit the street price of the TAC 2's that are currently available for $1400. Seems like a solid deal.

Geissele @ $1975 or FN @ $1729…no brainier

Thanks. Yeah, that's a good price for sure. I had looked at Battle Hawk Armory before, but after reading some online reviews, BBB etc, it kinda scared me off. Could you update us on your experience with them, please?

This is the second run with them, first time was about 8 months ago. Ordered from them then read the reviews. I was nervous but the order went thru, Was the fn patrol carbine with quad rail. And now this order. I just ordered it sat, so i am awaiting tracking info. They were up front about 7-10 days before shipping. So I will post on this thread when I get it.

Im not able to view your second link but just to be clear that is not the Tac3. The SRP G2 has the Midwest rail. https://botach.com/fn-srp-g2-carbine-fn15-16rifle/
