NEMO Arms @ TFB:


Below you can find the NEMO Arms press release announcing the new rifles:


The price tag of NEMO’s newest rifle, the NEMO® FX might surprise you. While NEMO Arms is known for their high-end Omen™, XO™, and Battle-Light™ ARs with top-of-the-line manufacturing and components, the new FX series is designed with reliable components and engineered in-house to minimize machine time, allowing for a more affordable MSRP starting at $1495.

The FX rifle is built on NEMO’s new enhanced forged receiver set and utilizes quality MIL-SPEC components resulting in a rugged and reliable rifle with room for future personalized upgrades. The NEMO FX will be available with a 16” steel barrel chambered in either 5.56 NATO or .223 WYLDE which runs 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington ammunition. The FX will get the same premium service and support that’s been offered by NEMO for over 10 years and backed by NEMOs manufacturer limited lifetime warranty.

The forging for the NEMO FX comes from the acquisition of 2A Armament, however, the FX isn’t just a rebranded 2A rifle. Enhancements were made by tightening tolerances and clearances to help increase accuracy and give the rifle a solid feel. Other improvements like replacing the standard pins with screws allow for easier assembly. Many of the components such as the handguard and muzzle device in the FX rifle are based on 2A Armament designs. NEMO Arms is also launching these AR-15 components as NEMO® Builder Series parts. “Our aim is to keep the price point, reliability, and design aesthetic of the original 2A Builder Series line so we can continue to provide a quality product at a price point that NEMO has never been in.” said Bill King, CEO.

The FX line will also become NEMO’s small-frame AR base for military and law enforcement contracts through the NEMO Defense program. NEMO works with each agency to understand their use case, guidelines, and service needs and will customize a build for their Mission Critical needs. Custom configurations of the FX line will only be available through the NEMO Defense program as FX-MC rifles.
