RECOIL OFFGRID Preparation FN Firearms: 2026 New Product Release
In This Article
When FN America extends an invitation, you answer the call. We were brought to the Sawmill Training Complex in South Carolina for a full day of field testing ██████████. These new offerings are set to be unveiled at SHOT Show 2026. Until then, nearly everything we experienced remains locked under embargo.
What follows is a preview that looks more like a government dossier than a gear review. Black bars cover the details, but we can promise you—what we saw represents a serious leap forward for FN and the shooters who rely on them.

The first product we ran was ███████████████████████. It’s designed for █████████████████ in mind, prioritizing ███████████████.
Key takeaways from testing: ███████████████ made it extremely approachable, ███████████████████ gave it impressive adaptability, and ███████████████ removed much of the hesitation newer users might face.
Even after hundreds of rounds, ███████████████████ ran smoothly. The only observation was ███████████████████, though consistent training would easily address it. Price point is expected to fall below █████████████, which makes this offering particularly notable.
FN’s second reveal was a significant update to ███████████████████████. The platform is widely recognized already, but this new iteration introduces ███████████████████ that made a clear impact during testing.
Our team engaged targets well beyond ███████████████, with ███████████████████ making a dramatic difference in performance. Another standout element was ███████████████████, which eliminated the need to ███████████████████ between shots.
The controls and ergonomics have also been enhanced. Everything from ███████████████ to ███████████████ has been improved, while maintaining backwards compatibility with older models. FN estimates that users will gain around ███████████████ worth of additional value without an increase in base cost.
Finally, FN showcased ███████████████████████. Built with ███████████████, these units were tested extensively throughout the day.
Mounting and removal were straightforward, thanks to ███████████████████. We also appreciated the inclusion of ███████████████, which made servicing possible even in austere conditions.
Performance throughout the day was consistent and reliable, complementing the other platforms seamlessly. We’ll share the full breakdown—including technical details and photos—once the embargo lifts.
What we can say is simple: FN isn’t phoning it in. The company is refining existing platforms and introducing new ones that directly address the needs of their customers.
We’ll reveal all of the redactions and have full coverage and photography once the embargo is lifted at SHOT Show 2026. Until then, know this, FN is definitely listening, whether it’s to your everyday Joe buying their first firearm, or to the Tier 1 operator taking care of business abroad.
