The Patriot Ordnance Factory P415 Edge delivers precision engineering with enhanced ergonomics for tactical applications. This 5.56 NATO rifle combines POF's proven gas piston system with modern features that address common AR-platform limitations. Built for reliability in demanding conditions, the P415 Edge offers consistent performance across diverse shooting scenarios.
What Makes This Different
The P415 Edge features POF's short-stroke gas piston system instead of traditional direct impingement, reducing fouling and heat transfer to the bolt carrier group. This design maintains consistent cycling pressure and extends component life compared to standard AR-15 platforms. The integrated heat sink barrel nut and E2 dual-extraction technology provide enhanced reliability during sustained fire sequences.
Key Features
- Short-stroke gas piston system with adjustable gas block for reliable cycling
- 16.5-inch chrome-lined barrel with 1:8 twist rate for 55-77 grain projectiles
- Mission First Tactical 6-position minimalist stock with anti-rotation QD mount
- Renegade rail system with M-LOK attachment points at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock
- E2 dual-extraction system with oversized extractor and case deflector
- Heat sink barrel nut with integrated timing system
- 30-round Magpul PMAG included with purchase
Field performance demonstrates consistent 2 MOA accuracy with quality ammunition, while the piston system maintains function in adverse conditions where direct impingement rifles may experience issues. The adjustable gas block allows fine-tuning for different ammunition weights and suppressor use. Law enforcement agencies have adopted similar POF platforms for patrol rifle applications due to their reduced maintenance requirements.
