I believe there's no such shortage if there's a will there's a way I've seen more in volume at a given time; But I haven't ever not seen one for sale. You can buy them from any state, get a middle man transfer to make it CA Compliant and ship to a FFL near you for your end of the work.

I want to replace the muzzle brake on my Scar 16.
Can someone please point me in the right direction? Couldn't find a good guide or video on youtube on how to remove it. |

It should be. You can buy a barrel vice block from Brownell's and some lead barrel vice shims. Be aware that if the barrel slips it will really gouge it.
Don't try to remove it without clamping the barrel. You could seriously mess up the rifle if you do.

BTW I really like that color Atlas. Mine is just plain old black.

A redesigned SCAR 17 will be out next year addressing all the feedback from the current version.
The current version needs $1500 worth of upgrades to be all it can be. That should be eliminated on the next version. |

Even better is to just loosen the 6 barrel screws, remove the barrel and put the barrel extension in some smooth vice jaws. |

BTW - The SCAR does not need any upgrades. People add those because they think they have too, but that's crap. The grip, sling points, stock, compensator, rails, and even the trigger do not "need" to be replaced, it all a matter of what someone with too much money thinks they need. The truth is that many of these folks spend way more time and money on accessories than they do actually shooting and buying ammo. I've got 4 SCARs pictured in the previous pages. The dirty little truth is; I can shoot the same groups (actually slightly better) with the 17 that I never bothered to install the Super SCAR trigger into than I can with my Geissele equipped 17 with NightForce 2.5-10. Its easier with the Geissele trigger, but it can be done. The only changes I made to that rifle are the sling points, a grip, and Aimpoint T2 with Aimpoint 3X magnifier. You don't need to make any changes for SCARs to shoot well and be an excellent battle rifle. I am sure there are a lot of guys that have added all that stuff that I can outshoot. Bench or free hand. I'd love to see a new model, but we may not be able to buy one next year...who knows what the commies in California government will get Brown to sign.

Nice rifle.
Were you actually able to get the EOTech magnifier to work properly with the MRO? Because I have an Aimpoint 3X magnifier and an EOTech Gen2 magnifier that really don't provide a good sight picture with the MRO on my SCAR 16.

Aside from that, I don't think FN is working on anything. As is, the rifle is nearly perfect, IMO. |

You know, I've suggested this before, but I'm not sure a lot of people could get it clamped properly. I think a vice block made for the barrel extension end of a SCAR barrel would be a good product.

Thanks ! I'm lookin for the best deal on the geisselle as we speak ! 280$ is the best deal I can find ... I noticed the flash hider has a more lateral pop when firing compared to the more straight back recoil of the comp

Thanks that's great feedback! So it's noticeable to point you can describe it like you did but is it still negligible when it comes to follow shots or getting back on target?

I don't care about using Pmags or DPMS mags, but a better trigger would be nice.

Beyond the ergonomic standpoint, how end-users mount 4oz torches and 8oz PEQ's forward of the gas block, completely unbalancing the rifle, exceeds my comprehension. In my opinion, there's nothing worse, or more fatiguing, than a front-heavy rifle. As for the proprietary magazines, they don't bother me either, but good grief, they are definitely heavy. |

Ran it with my 17 in a class recently. After a bunch of rounds, two/one handed shooting or malfunction drills and a whole lot of fun it looked like this. Holster marks are only on the gas fouling and RMR was used and abused on some nearby barriers(wood and concrete) along with the holster itself. |

How many of you guys are planning on buying the FN 20" barrel assembly? I have that on my list. I want to have the foam cut out on my Pelican case for it so I can do the barrel swap at the range for long distance shooting.

For accuracy the stainless barrel is nice and also that you can get a more optimal twist rate. Kreiger can do all the work to the barrel like profiling, cutting the threads, but will it cost and be less trouble to buy the FN 20" barrel assembly? K.hosey9 do you plan on switching between the 16 and 20" barrels? Does the gas block have to different to work with the 20"?
