I did some horse trading last week and picked up a SCAR 16S in FDE. It is practically new as the gent only put about 100 rounds through it. He had a 17S and had sold it before we did the deal, would not have minded getting that one too. This came with a Vortex Strike Eagle Scope. It's accurate, recoil is nil and I really like it so far. I added the Inforce light and the Knights forward grip. Anyone else step up and get one of these pricey beasts?

im in that same boat - i know little to nothing of these , it looks interesting and oi appreciate your fondness , i would have to shoot it to know if it was a good fit for me , im rather fond of the old school FN FAL myself , the one i have has seen more 22 rounds through it with the conversion kit than it has the 308 but it shoots well , ive also a fondness for browning's FN M35 hi-power , i guess im dating myself in terms of their products , |

The SCAR rifles came out in 2004, a piston driven gas system. The 16S use M-16 magazines but you need to modify Pmags if you intend to use those. The butt stock is adjustable for pull length and folds to make more compact. Neat guns but retails near $3K. http://www.policemag.com/channel/weapon ... rifle.aspx https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FN_SCAR |

Neat rifle! Puts me in mind of an AUG - and about the same price range. SW |

Looks like photo-scam-bucket deleted your avatar. I heard they want $40 to have a 3rd party account now. You could post it to the pic forum here and make a new avatar from there. SW |
