Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7x28mm 16.25″ Folding Carbine Black 10+1

Description

<h2>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7 Carbine</h2>

<p>The <strong>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7</strong> brings the 5.7x28mm cartridge to Smith & Wesson’s innovative folding carbine platform. Designed to provide a compact storage footprint without sacrificing a full-length barrel, the FPC folds horizontally while allowing compatible optics to remain mounted.</p>

<p>This 10-round configuration features a <strong>16.25-inch barrel, 10+1 capacity, black finish, M-LOK handguard, Picatinny optics rail and integrated magazine storage</strong>, creating a versatile option for shooters who need a reduced-capacity version of the FPC 5.7.</p>

<h2>5.7x28mm Chambering</h2>

<p>The <strong>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7</strong> is chambered in <strong>5.7x28mm</strong>, a lightweight centerfire cartridge recognized for its high velocity and manageable recoil characteristics.</p>

<p>Pairing 5.7x28mm with a shoulder-fired carbine provides an interesting alternative to more traditional pistol-caliber carbine configurations.</p>

<h2>16.25-Inch Barrel</h2>

<p>The FPC 5.7 features a <strong>16.25-inch barrel</strong>, providing the dimensions of a full-length carbine while retaining the platform’s ability to fold into a substantially shorter package for storage and transportation.</p>

<p>The barrel is threaded to accommodate appropriately sized compatible muzzle devices and accessories.</p>

<h2>Innovative Side-Folding Design</h2>

<p>The defining characteristic of the <strong>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7</strong> is its <strong>side-folding architecture</strong>. The barrel and handguard fold horizontally alongside the receiver rather than folding over the top.</p>

<p>This design allows compatible optics mounted on the upper rail to remain installed when the carbine is folded, helping preserve the rifle’s configured setup during storage and transportation.</p>

<h2>10+1 Round Capacity</h2>

<p>This version of the FPC 5.7 is configured with a <strong>10-round detachable magazine</strong>, providing a total capacity of <strong>10+1 rounds</strong> with one cartridge chambered.</p>

<p>The reduced-capacity configuration provides the core features of the FPC 5.7 platform for customers seeking a 10-round magazine version.</p>

<h2>M-LOK Handguard</h2>

<p>The <strong>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7</strong> incorporates an <strong>M-LOK handguard</strong> that provides multiple attachment points for compatible accessories.</p>

<p>The modern handguard also provides ample gripping surface while maintaining the streamlined profile required by the folding FPC design.</p>

<h2>Picatinny Optics Rail</h2>

<p>A <strong>Picatinny optics rail</strong> provides a versatile mounting surface for compatible red-dot sights, scopes and other optical systems.</p>

<p>The FPC’s horizontal folding mechanism is specifically beneficial for optic-equipped configurations because the mounted sight does not need to be removed when the carbine is folded.</p>

<h2>Integrated Magazine Storage</h2>

<p>The stock incorporates <strong>integrated storage for compatible spare magazines</strong>, allowing additional magazines to be carried directly on the carbine.</p>

<p>This storage system is one of the signature functional features of the Smith & Wesson FPC platform.</p>

<h2>Compact Storage Footprint</h2>

<p>Despite its full-length 16.25-inch barrel, the <strong>Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 5.7</strong> can fold into a considerably more compact configuration for organized storage and transportation.</p>

<p>The folding mechanism allows the carbine to retain its primary components and mounted optic while substantially reducing its overall stored length.</p>

<h2>Familiar M&P-Inspired Ergonomics</h2>

<p>Smith & Wesson incorporates familiar <strong>M&P-inspired ergonomics and controls</strong> throughout the FPC platform.</p>

<p>The pistol grip, shoulder stock and modern handguard create a familiar carbine-style interface while the folding mechanism gives the FPC capabilities that distinguish it from conventional fixed rifles.</p>
