    Amazed by a SCAR 17

    I've got two SCAR 17s and two 16s, so you could say I have a SCAR problem (looking for a 12 step program). First thing you do when you get a SCAR 17 is order the Geiselle Super SCAR trigger, install it as soon as you get it and put the stock trigger in your spare box. The trigger is more...

    FN SCAR 17 value

    Good choice. Good price. I just received my second SCAR 17 this time in black. They like heavier ammunition. I put a NF 2.5-10x 42 on it and a Geiselle Super SCAR trigger. With plain old American Eagle 168 grain M1A box ammo I can put 7 out of 10 rounds in a ragged 1" area @ 100 yards from...

    I dunno maybe the trigger before the mount or glass.

    Help me build my first ar

    The only thing I could tell from your specification is that you want to shoot targets and maybe Coyotes. So you don't want a specialized target rifle which tends to have a heavy barrel and many use .223 rather than 5.56 chambers. My philosophy, and others on this site, is to obtain the best...

    SCAR 17 optic opinion

    Regular guy here, just shooting my SCAR 17S for two years. Started with an Aimpoint and irons until I decided on an optic. Since adding an optic I've noticed only one optics related issue that I've never encountered on any other rifle before. Using a NF 2.5-10 on a LaRue mount I encountered...

    Is The FNH SCAR 17 Worth It?

    Re: Is The FNH SCAR 17 Worth It? I have a SCAR 16 & 17 and they are very fine battle rifles. I've read some stuff in this thread and other threads that are either hyperbole, BS, rumor, ignorance or nonsense. Like the guy that said that all these new rifles (and he listed several including...

    Rifle Scopes SCAR 17S Optic Choice

    Re: SCAR 17S Optic Choice I'm watching this one because I just bought a SCAR Heavy and I'm looking for a scope. I was thinking USO 1.5-6, but weight is an issue as it is with the IOR which is an option if you can put up with the potential problems you might have. I wish Trijicon would take...

    Looking to buy a 7.62 CQB platform

    Re: Looking to buy a 7.62 CQB platform As always it depends on your intended use, for home defense get a tactical shotgun first. If you want a quick reliable 5.56 CQB, get a SCAR 16s. For cheap and reliable an AK47 specifically an Arsenal SGL-21, great deal. If you are set on a 7.62X51...

    Tactical Mini 14 vs AR

    Re: Tactical Mini 14 vs AR MINI Vs. AR??? This is my first post on this forum, and I wonder why I started reading this topic, but here I am. LOOK, I find myself defending Mini-14s even though I own three AR type rifles, and a SCAR 16s (17s is in the mail), and 2 late model 2009 Mini-14s...
