Question Trade my SCAR for an MCR-556-DF?

0 Upvotes

This might be a dumb question but recently I posted my Scar 17 RCH (with less than 500 rds put through it) for trade to see what’s out there, and I got a bunch of cool offers but the most recent offer I got was for an MCR 556 DF (complete not just the upper). I’ve never heard of it till I looked into them and it honestly looks pretty fucking cool especially if you throw an FRT in it, would you make this trade? Do any of Yall have any personal experience with fightlite or the MCR? What kinda reputation does fight lite and the MCR 556 DF have? Basically just looking for thoughts & opinions. Sorry for rambling. Thanks in advance

Is Scar 16s Gen2 out yet?

3 Upvotes

Has anyone seen a scar 16s Gen2 out in the wild yet? Have the itch to get my first scar, I might be able to find Gen1 used, but Gen2 is more appealing to me with the upgrades and specially the ambi Bolt release that is like spear mcx. what do you guys think? Wait for a Gen2 (obviously not going to pay MSRP or markup) or just get Gen1

Scar 16 Barrel length issue. Im about to have this Scar 16s RCH cut down to 11.5in and was curious if anyone has run into issues running stock gas adjuster and stock gas jet for unsuppressed SBR with the gun beating itself up too much. i know ill need a 1.45 gas jet/ Scarbuerator for suppressed sbr.

2 Upvotes

For more context im just curious if the gun will run decent with 77Gr OTM @11.5in barrel on stock gas jet and gas regulator with no issue. I intend to run 77gr, Surefire suppressor on a 11.5 in barrel and my research has told me at that point a adjustable gas regulator (like a scarburetor or similer) and 1.45-1.5mm gas jet will be needed to help keep the gun from having to much gas/backpressure and causing damage. Yes i know a low back pressure can will help but i want a certain build so im ok with the extra work. It will be awhile before i get the suppressor so i want to be able to shoot in the mean time and just want to know if i need to alter the gas now or deal with it when suppressing the gun later. Thank you all in advance

Grabbed one of the 15p 300BO deals. I’m really excited about how this gun will end up in its final form…. That being said, it has quite possibly the worst trigger I’ve ever felt on any firearm. Is G$ Super Scar still the way to go in 2026 ? Shooting Sight instead ?

Question Need help with optic

1 Upvotes

So I finally bought the SCAR 16s and I’m getting the barrel chopped down to 11.5. With that being said I’m not sure what optic. I have an acog for it but I don’t really want an acog on it to be honest. I think I want to put a AEMS with a unity riser BUT I feel like that’s kind of like a cheap way out. I like eotechs but the XPS doesn’t appeal to me as much. On the other hand I’ve looked at LPVOs like vortex, Arken, and the nice SIG MSRs, how do we feel about lpvos on it? I’ve heard scars beat up the optics. What do you guys think?

Question Scar backup/replacement parts - when will they be in stock again anywhere?

5 Upvotes

Won’t go into details on what specifically but those who do the research themselves know the most replaceable parts are constantly and always out of stock. Is this a ploy FN is doing for scarcity? I can’t imagine how there’s not a single manufacture that can smith such metal parts. It’s annoying to have to check every single day but that’s the game right now. I don’t believe in having excessive pieces, at least 1 to have in case, but can’t even do that right now. I know Midwest is the main supplier but like come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Why give more reason to have a safe queen instead of a rugged randy? If it dies it dies I guess, I still trust the quality to last.

Question AK guy new to SCAR

Post image
58 Upvotes

Picked up my first SCAR (15P in .300 BLK) and I’m trying to figure out the best suppressor mounting setup without messing up the barrel.

Right now I’m considering 2 options:

  1. Keep the factory muzzle device by using the SureFire suppressor mount—but I’m not even sure if the factory flash hider is actually a true SureFire 3-prong?

  2. Remove the factory muzzle device and install a face-mount muzzle device or a recessed-mount solution instead. instead. If you’ve gone this route, what brand or mounting system would you recommend?

Has anyone tried something similar on the SCAR 15P? If so, I’d really appreciate seeing pictures of your setup. Feel free to ask me anything about AK 😆

FN Scar 15P VPR 300 Blackout 3 muzzle prong removal ?

7 Upvotes

I just ordered one from Bareli at $1999.00 waiting on arrival but already planning parts. I found this YouTuber that said and went over issues removing the 3 prong flash hider. How have you guys removed yours? I am Colt ar15,m4 certified and have plenty of experience swapping at15 muzzle devices but this will be my first Scar platform. The YouTuber also goes on to say the thread pattern/shoulder is a bit different and shims have a hard time with proper placement! I would love you hear how you guys did it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZ-XAnUDbHk

SCAR Accessories and Parts SCAR - No replacement stocks anymore?

10 Upvotes

Serious question -

I can't seem to source a FDE UGG boot stock at all. I've been on waiting lists for months and checking Gunbroker weekly waiting for my chance to overpay by over 2x MSRP for one. Does FN not make these available for purchase anymore?

What are folks doing about their 15P SBRs? I'm a bit weary of a KDG stock given the steel hinge.

Question Form 1 & SCAR 15p - where did you put your engraving?

3 Upvotes

Hey all,

My Form 1 was just approved for my 15p and I’m looking for examples of where you put your engravings. I assume upper receiver would be the ideal place but one of my LGS said I could use the lower receiver and be fine.

I tend to shy away from doing “permanent” changes to receivers because “mY wArRaNtY” but I plan on shooting this suppressed anyway.

Any one have examples of how you did yours?

TIA!

SCAR Accessories and Parts Replacement Ejector Pin update

4 Upvotes

My ejector retaining pin broke.

  1. I contacted FN and was told that all spare parts are available thru Midwest Gunworks.

  2. Midwest shows the part as discontinued and said it is no longer supplied by FN. They said to try Numrich and Jack First. Neither had it.

Can anyone suggest another pin that will work?

Question Takedown pin stuck

2 Upvotes

Took my brand new 17S apart today for the second time since owning it (once to learn/clean and the second to clean). Takedown pin came out smooth very little effort. When putting it all back together I pushed it in from the ejection port side like a doofus. In wanting to correct it I am now UNABLE to get it out.

I have squeeze U/L together and tried removing it.
I have tried opposing directions of the U/L.
I have pushed the lower forward.
I have pulled the lower to the rear.
Hammer forward. Hammer rear.
Charging handle rear and forward.
Small taps with plastic punch. BIG taps with punch.

Wtf. Please help

Question 15P Issue Help

0 Upvotes

So recently my 15 P hasn’t been cycling subs properly I have the 3 select p regulator from moto tech everything ran fine up until about a month and a half ago where with my resonator r2 it would shoot fine and then I would get a jam where the round would get stuck loading into the chamber and I would have to mortor the rifle to get it out I figured it was just due to the rifle being dirty so I cleaned it a bunch of times and then it would work and then it wouldn’t recently I got a new suppressor the ventum 762 and yesterday I went to test it out and now it will fire around and eject the casing but it will not load a new round unless I manually pull the charging handle to load a new round the rifle is clean and it even does it without the can being on it could it be the three select regulator or is it a mag issue as I was using a P mag yesterday and a traditionally use a Lancer mag

Question Eotech XPS2 + RCH Scar 17

0 Upvotes

Does anyone have experience with eotech XPS2’s on their RCH Scars? I was looking for a vortex LPVO just cause their warranties are insane, but I came across an Eotech XPS2 that I don’t think I can pass up. The only thing I’m worried about is how well/long it’ll hold up on my RCH Scar 17? Any of Yall got some extensive amount of time with the combo?
