Bushmaster Patrolman 5.56 30+1 Moe Fde

The Bushmaster Patrolman 5.56 30+1 MOE FDE is purpose-built for patrol officers, reserve deputies, and tactical teams who demand a reliable, ergonomic carbine without unnecessary complexity. Chambered in 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington, this 16-inch barreled rifle delivers the velocity and accuracy needed for law enforcement duty or home defense while remaining controllable in confined spaces. The flat dark earth MOE (Magpul Original Equipment) furniture package offers intuitive controls and improved handling—features proven across thousands of deployments in the field.

Built on a 7075-T6 aluminum receiver for durability and weight management, the Patrolman combines fixed front sights with a carry handle rear sight for fast target acquisition without battery dependency. The matte black finish resists corrosion and glare, essential for extended outdoor patrol work. A 30-round magazine capacity plus one round in the chamber meets modern duty standards, while the Magpul MOE handguard and pistol grip provide consistent purchase and reduced fatigue during long operations. The 16-inch barrel strikes a proven balance between velocity retention, accuracy at duty distances (25–100 yards), and maneuverability in vehicles or buildings.

Law enforcement agencies and private security operators benefit most from the Patrolman's no-frills approach—fixed sights mean no zeroing errors, and Magpul MOE components are field-proven across combat and domestic duty environments. The flat dark earth furniture integrates seamlessly with modern tactical gear and provides visual differentiation from black-finished weapons during low-light operations. This rifle is compatible with any standard 5.56 NATO ammunition and accepts mil-spec or commercial Picatinny accessories if iron sights are later upgraded. For departments seeking a proven duty carbine without optics cost, the Bushmaster Patrolman delivers mission-ready performance out of the box.
