FNC Bolt Catch

[howdy]

Anyone have a bolt catch added to their FNC? I have read that TSC did these years ago, as well as added magwell flare. Interested to see pics and hear how well they function, haven't found much info or any pics.

Please don’t modify your FNC. Thanks.

TSC has done some super cool custom FNC work.
There was a guy who had a collection of them listed
for sale on HKPro a few years back - he had a website with a
Ton of pictures - sorry no link…

I think I found reference to the site you mentioned, unfortunately it is no longer up. Darn.

I originally posted this on Sturm.

During the ownership of my FN - FNC I did not realize that there's a factory bolt hold open feature. I owe a thanks to a friend of mine, Brett Kleypas for discovering this during our Oklahoma MG shoot!
I’m attaching a video link to show ya’ll what I’m talking about.
Was I the only one that didn’t know this?
Aside: Brett and his team over at HUXWRX make some awesome silencers so please give them some love if you can.

I use it only when the rangedick wants everyone to stop firing and put things in a safe condition.

Yep, I see it mentioned here and there, definitely a handy feature to have the manual hold open. The mentioned TSC mod, however, is an automatic bolt catch.

Some pics tells more then 1000 words...

Wow, now THAT would be a sweet mod. Really too bad TSC doesn't do them anymore.
Thanks for the pics.

That was not a modification. That is an original FN made AK5 preserie lower. Later, Sweden took over production.
It is close to the FN CAL bolt hold open.

I have one of swedish field test rifles preceeding AK5, there were some lowers that had actual magazine actuated bolthold open.
I learned that afterwards as I wasn´t personally picking rifle from dealer from patch of 10, I got second best bore as finest went for the guy made the selection.

PM me if you ever sell it.
I live in Belgium and have the correct paperwork. I'm writing a book on the FNC. All variants are welcome.
Thx
