Well it’s finally happening.
After teasing us for years at shot show...
FN has announced a shiny new scar:

Interesting

Available for commercial and law enforcement.

I've yet to see any SCAR"S in commercials, so o o o o

Mine came today. It was $3995 delivered. It came with a Geisselle Super SCAR trigger already installed, it's a $400 upgrade to regular SCARS so the 20s isn't all that much more than a regular SCAR with a Geisselle.

Headed to the range now to see how it shoots........... :-)

Was that the commercial or LEO/IOP price?

That is one ugly rifle.

Yeah, but give FN credit for bringing it out. It was promised so long ago that one could be forgiven for having assumed that FN would never do it.

Hmm, is that a different muzzle device?

Probably the most butt ugly rifle I've ever seen. Mine will be here later this week

Inspired by Minecraft?

Looks like the standard FN SCAR flash hider instead of the PWS muzzle brake on the 17.

That thing looks like a hogs butt sewed up with a logging chain. But I would take one.

I think it looks great with optics but looks are subjective. So how does it shoot?

According to this reviewer it's more accurate than his Knights Armament SR-25 ER. And the SR-25 looks to be selling for about $1k more (MAP price) if you can find one.

Another review showing impressive accuracy for a factory built 20" semi-auto .308:

I bet its a great rifle , but it still looks like a 2x4 with a barrel sticking out of it.

Needs one of those surplus clip on night vision units.

Did it inherit that incredibly ridiculous reciprocating charging handle from the SCAR 17?

I just can’t get into FN rifles. I find them grossly over priced for what they are.

I own plenty of guns over $4k. I even own a few well north of that, so it’s not that I mind paying for quality or scarcity.

I just don’t give a rip about a $3k scar, so I really can’t get into this ugly sucker at $4k, lol

MSRP of $4500.00


LOL, get fucked FN.

I guess an SR25 or a HK MR762 is much cheaper? Wait, no....
