FN SCAR IS DEAD; LONG LIVE THE SCAR! US and Belgium Production is over.

So the stupidly overpriced rifle is going to get even more stupidly overpriced?

Can’t wait for the gunbroker bubba to sell one for $27,000 cause “socom” and “discontinued” and “i know what i got”
🤣🤣🤣
Free markets and shit - bitches...

Accessories McMillan HTG Rem 700 Desert Smear

Package deal is you're interested, a PTG (RR Series) M40A1 Rem 700 SA Receiver with appropriate receiver mouth cuts, and scope mount cuts and a Brux M24 1-11.25 twist 308 Barrel blank, and a Badger M4 BDL style (closely matches the W70 style bottom metal) and a Walker trigger, all for $2000 shipped. Basically a built kit. Or if your serious ,my other posted McMillan Dark Forest HTG stock with the W70 style BM, the Brux barrel blank and Walker trigger for $2150..pretty much a bargain....

Just because you are an engineer doesn't mean you are correct. I don't cut prefits for ARC actions anymore. They can't seem to hit their own specifications..... +.004" headspace from their own print is garbage.

Interesting, +0.004" over print dimension is certainly enough to cause an issue with a prefit and I don't blame you for not wanting to do prefits for them anymore... Nobody likes dealing with returns and reworks when it could have been avoided.

I'm sure you've measured a much larger sample size of ARC actions than I have, but between 9 ARC actions of 3 different models that share an identical tenon print that I've measured, they've all measured well within the print tolerance, and all 9 actions measured within a total span of 0.0012" even when swapping bolt heads around between all the actions.

The 9 I've measured were certainly good enough for prefits but like any chamber job regardless of action brand, if you want to hit an exact headspace dimension you either need the action in hand or accurate action face to bolt face measurements.

If I'm ordering a custom prefit, even for an action that supposedly guarantees an action face to bolt face dimension within +/- 0.001" according to the manufacturers print, I always provide the smith with a measurement from the action face to the bolt face taken with a calibrated depth mic measured multiple times in multiple spots on the bolt face on my action that the barrel will be going on. Doing this I've yet to find any out of spec dimensional surprises regardless of brand, but I'm sure you've measured many more actions than I have and can note trends and deviations by manufacturer.

If the smith knows what they're doing and I provide that action to bolt face dimension along with a headspace gauge or a couple of pieces of sized brass and tell them "please headspace to this provided gauge/brass +0.001" using this provided action measurement" they can usually hit the desired headspace dimension within a couple of tenths.

Of course, for the best tenon thread fit the smith needs the action in hand, but that's not always convenient if you're still shooting out the current barrel and don't want any down time.

Can you please give us a list of the matches you’re referring to? Thanks

This is the next one I'm signed up for.

Rifle Scopes Official Zero Compromise Optic News & Updates

They all have the same FOV all around the world, I've read about some saying we use FOV restrictors for certain markets or that we've not opened them up to the full potential etc etc.

I work sales for ZCO HQ in Austria and to the best of my knowledge neither is a thing.
And welcome to the fun! Glad to have your wisdom and voice.

What's the status on these being offered with the larger field of view? I apologize if this has been asked, I went back a few pages and didn't see anything. I haven't looked at optics much since early in the year and remember thats what all the talk was about.
