Get another AR or ACR/SCAR?

[HKDoc]

Scar, it shoots very well and is extremely reliable. It's also very light and accurate.

If you don't have the skill of the best, at least have the Tools that they used.
and the bests use SCAR

[ExtremeX]

Ugh, First World Problems.

haha

I would go with SCAR.

+1.

Those are harder to obtain. Though the same argument can be made about the ACR, but for my money, I'll go with the SCAR.

Actually SCAR's seem to be alot easier to get nowadays then earlier this year for sure when I was looking.

The SCAR 17 which was harder to get but it seems to becoming more available lately...

Also the ACR seems to be finally coming back in stock at online places...

I like the ACR better. I just despise the SCAR charging handle and clumsiness.

[Rukus]

The thing about the SCAR is that it's loaded with free-state options. In CA you either need the maglock which eliminates the ambi release and a pinned stock or you add a goofy muzzle extension to retain the folding stock option. You could go featureless but then you still need to pin the stock and ditch the FSC...

Scar17, go big or go home

^^That.

Really? Why waste your money on that piece of ****? They have numerous, well documented problems along with a hefty price tag and weight. If Remington ever pulls its head out of its *** and releases the military version with a 16" barrel and semi automatic, they would have a hit and I would change my mind.

The FNH Scar 16 is superior in every possible category to the ACR, and is a truly viable alternative to the AR platform.

I'm sorry but you're wrong. I have owned both, and sold the SCAR because it was an inferior weapon when compared to an ACR. I had more functionality issues and failures with my SCAR than any gun I've ever owned. The only thing that stops the ACR from getting huge in California is that no large distributor makes a Cali-legal version. Everything has to go through a secondary FFL for the bullet button. I vote ACR

What failures did you have with the Scar? From everything I have read, and from my personal experiences they are not inferior in any way and are incredible reliable.

I had a lot of FTF's along with reliability issues when I shot in a very dusty and sandy environment. I consider my weapons as tools, and when i had to stop using one and move to a backup because my SCAR wasn't reliable, I consider that tool broken

What did FNH have to say about it? Like I said, your experiences with this rifle are not typical and many hard use guys love the platform. Having said that anyone can make a lemon.

Many hard use guys hate the SCAR too.

TBH there aren't any 223 rifles that catch my eye 'more' than the AR. Maybe a G36 but I'm not spending silly amounts of money to build a wannabe one of those.

That doesn't reflect the experiences of the vast majority of SCAR owners. Not doubting you, but your experience with it is atypical.

Likewise, many hard use guys love the SCAR as well. Everyone has their preferences..
