Own a piece of military history with the French FR-F2 Sniper Rifle, the standard-issue precision rifle of the French armed forces from 1986 until 2018. Chambered in the powerful 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester), this bolt-action sniper rifle is renowned for its reliability, accuracy, and unique design, making it a prized addition for collectors and shooting enthusiasts alike. These surplus FR-F2 rifles are in great condition and come complete with a APXL806 scope, and adjustable bipod.Designed by GIAT Industries as an upgrade to the FR-F1, the FR-F2 features a free-floating 24-inch barrel with a thermal polymer shroud to reduce heat signature and mirage, enhancing stealth and precision in the field. Its robust MAS-36 pattern bolt action ensures dependable performance, while the adjustable bipod and customizable stock provide ergonomic versatility for long-range shooting. This rifle is built for accuracy, capable of engaging point targets up to 800 meters with sub-MOA potential on a good day.
 
Each rifle has been hand-inspected to ensure no defects, with all original wood and metal components, no rust or corrosion, and a strong, bright bore. This is a rare opportunity to own a fully functional, collector-grade FR-F2 sniper rifle.

Introduced in 1986, the FR-F2 served as the French military’s premier sniper rifle for over three decades, seeing action in conflicts from the Global War on Terror to operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, Mali, and Bosnia-Herzegovina. Its design prioritizes first-round accuracy, making it a true squad sniper rifle rather than a designated marksman rifle. The FR-F2’s innovative features, such as the thermal barrel shroud and tunable muzzle device, reflect France’s unique approach to firearms design, setting it apart from other NATO sniper platforms. With the French military transitioning to the FN SCAR-H PR, these surplus FR-F2 rifles are now available to collectors, limited and highly sought-after.
