FN finally discontinued this piece of shit. Press S to spit on its grave.
>>64406596Impossible. How am I gonna flex on the poors now?
>>64406614IWS coming soon
>>64406596Great now I get to spend 5k on a used one because he knows what he gots
>>64406596>SCAR gets discontinued while FAL production hasn't stopped in over 70 yearsNever thought I'd get to live in such a based timeline.
>tfw dad had one but cops took it and I never got to shoot itIt's never been as over as it is right now
>>64406663THIS SCAR IS THE ONE THAT DUN KILT BIN LADEN
>>64406614with cartridges that cost 9 bucks each
>https://fnamerica.com/discontinued-products/Why do these retards always discontinue their cool shit? Looks like the basic FN-15 models are going too, and a couple models of FNX. Does every fucking gun REALLY need to be an AR or striker fired 9mm?
>>64406731Why
>>64407005FN pistols suck and thats why no one uses them.
>>64407005Fnx/fnp/fns are all turds they need to fire everyone involved and dig up the graves of the dudes that designed the Five-seveN.They keep giving Americans the reigns to pistol design and, frankly, fn USA is DOGSHIT at engineering pistols. They NEVER had a successful FN USA pistol product since way back when they were called Brownings.
>>64406999Fucking AI answer you retard.
>>64407005>moe slgbros holy shit ive never seen aftermarket ar furniture that i wanted before.I kindof don't like the pistol grip for having no finger grips and the uncircumsized ass handguard where it meets the front sight but other than that this isnt as ass as the other shit I see
>>64407048He was convicted of inappropriate acts with a minor. I mean it was weird but she was 16-17. Her and her mom didn't care until they realized they weren't getting my dad's money
>>64407065how's this?https://magpul.com/moem-lokhandguard-carbine-length-ar15-m4.html?mp_global_color=118
>>64407061>poor already seething over cost of ammo of gun he'll never touch or ever remotely be able to afford
>>64407005Thank God I got an FNX-45 Tactical a couple of years ago. Never got a SCAR sadly, but the FNX was one of my grail pistols ever since it was the FNP.>>64407051HK is better as a whole, but the FNX-45 Tactical and Five-seveN are good pistols. Everything else FN makes is crap thoughbeit. Striker-fired pistols are cheaper to manufacture, so companies are replacing DA/SA and trying to sell them to customers as an “upgrade.” Many such cases!
>>64407098So are we all buying IWS/LICCs?
>>64406596Only military rifle SOCOM had to carry BACK UP STOCKS forSo yes, spit awayRemember this any fool tries to brag about owning one
>>64407083Lmao>>64407048He got fucked up on ambien or something similar and alcohol, had kind of a mental break and shot shit up. Of course bunch of cops/SWAT got involved but no one hurt. He's in jail for i think another 6 years
>>64407111Digits confirm, the new meta is LICC with MA (machined aluminum) ball, anything else is kilt in da streetz
>>64407005>Does every fucking gun REALLY need to be an AR or striker fired 9mm?That's the only thing that military/police forces will ever buy from now until laser guns are invented, and since those contracts determine the direction of the market, we're stuck in AR/Glock hell for the foreseeable future.
>>64407005Unfortunately, the American gun market is retarded at all levels. Cops are glockfags, the military breaks into hives if their new rifle isn't just an AR-15, and the civilian market is obsessed with modular LARPing bullshit.
>>64406596FN is dumb as shit for pricing a $2000 rifle for $4k. No shit no ones gonna buy them. >>64407109>Striker-fired pistols are cheaper to manufacturewrong
>>64406999>cartridges that cost 9 bucks
>>64406596It's such a strange announcement. Slovenia adopted the SCAR in March, and now in September, they are like, "Yeah, we're discontinuing it."
>>64406596SCAR bros... our investments are going to pay off!
>Extruded Aluminum Upper (that directs shock into optics on the .308 rifle)>Plastic lower>Barely machined bolt carrier>$3000Who the fuck bought these, other than >>64407586 ?
>>64407596>>$3000Uhhh. Try $1500 more.
>>64407596me :)
What's the big deal with SCARs anyway? What makes them good?
>>64407704It's a good to go .308 semi auto that isn't an AR-10 and all the problems that entails.
>>644069991. AIslop2. that's only because it's produced in low numbers right now you idiot
>>64406999>case60-70cpr, less if you bulk order>bulletassuming meme bonded bullet 1.25-1.75>primer15cpr>powder50cpr$2.50-3 with COTS components. It's Grendel bullets.
>>64407163>ambien That shit should be mega banned, it's strongly hallucinogenic. And not the fun kind, but the "nightshade family intoxication" kind.
>>64406614Look on the flip side. If you already own a SCAR, its resale value just tripled.
>>64406596They're discontinuing it to replace it with a new version.
>>64407853I wonder what the epic new acronym name will be. The STAB? The GASH?
>>64407832Ah yes only $3 per round, totally reasonable
>>64407980Yes
>>64407109one consistent mid weight trigger pull > one long and heavy trigger pull (for the first shot, which is the most important shot) and one lighter and crisper trigger pull
>>64408073You can just carry condition 1 and 0 you know. Its not a Sig.
>>64408078>condition 1true but then you have to flip the safety off under stress. it's not impossible but I don't like the idea of it. I think it's a trade off no matter what you choose (DA/SA decocked, DA/SA/SAO cocked and locked, striker) and I'm kind of tired of people shitting on one option or the other. it just seems like pointless bickering to me. it's nice that there are options out there for everyone>condition 0isn't this unsafe due to the lack of a trigger safety though? the trigger might be able to pull itself under its own inertia
>>64407980Welcome to 2025
if scar so good why it dead?
>>64407005Yes, that is the current meta until portable DEWs are common.
>>64408240uh oh stinky
>>64406596was there anything actually wrong with these aside from not looking enough like an AR15 to trick the military
>>64407005>Does every fucking gun REALLY need to be an AR or striker fired 9mm?Yes.
>>64407586>>64407635Too poor for an SR25? SAD! Many such cases of poorfaggotry.
>>64406596Why would anyone buy that over an 11.5 PSA AR
>>64406731Maybe if your dad wasn't such a massive junkie that wouldn't have happened.
>>64407855The VAGE
>>64408563SOCOM first got rid of their 5.56 ones and later most of their 7.62 onesWith all the money they piss away on gucci small arms of different kinds it has to be more than lack of AR ergos
>>64408563>reciprocating charging handle>worse recoil impulse making follow up shots slower>heavier >bulkier >kills optics the supposed benefits were bullshit as well>supposedly longer service and maintenance intervals>supposedly healthier for troops due to less gas in the face>supposedly cleaner and cooler because of troops having fun with sustained full auto the none of these supposed benefits were realized. piston systems are only marginally cleaner and cooler at a significantly greater expense. The real maintenance problem with small arms comes from full auto fire which causes a tremendous amount of heat to build up in the system that more or less destroys the entire gun over a short period of time.
I love my side charging handle tho. I am going to be sad to see it gone. Also there is something about the integrated front sight/gas block that completes the look. I understand why it's got to go but I will miss it
>>64406596Another decisive victory for AR chadsS
>>64409993>reciprocating charging handleHow can it be a negative when SOCOM explicitly wanted it?
>>64410064SOCOM and all other special ed forces are retarded and I'm tired of pretending they're not
>>64406596About time that outdated piece of shit was gone.
>>64408699the 5.56 was because there was no detectable difference
>>64410064It's clearly a design by committee so it's not FN's fault the charging handle is reciprocating as they were only following a requirement.However the ability to forgive FN for a mistake that wasn't theirs to begin with does not make the SCAR a better rifle. Just because there's context behind a design flaw it doesn't mean it's less of a flaw.
>>64410064>SCAR thumb's in you're path.No seriously, I got scar thumb from shooting an older scar that was set up by a left handed shooter.
>>64410554you hold guns wrong
>>64410064>How can it be a negative when SOCOM explicitly wanted it?And when they got it, they realized how awful it was and asked for FN to change them to non-reciprocating charging handles instead.
>>64406596Over engineer piston AR, only retards like that dog shit colored ugg boot wearing roastie
>>64410054Why has a P90 style magazine platform never taken off? Allows the best of both worlds, I never minded the top loading.
>>64412399Fn made the 5.7 cartridge so straight to make the p90 mag work that requires lubricant to extract.
>>64407855The SLASH
>>64412450Based FN making a truly straight round. Not like these gay closeted cartridges that all have a little bit of taper
Why were they so fucking expensive? And when does FN's patent end? I'd buy a clone rifle.
>>64409993>>worse recoil impulse why dont more people talk about this? sold mine back to the ffl and he knew what i meant. a steel barrel in an extruded aluminum shell with plastic furniture, yeah
>>64413202>Why were they so fucking expensive?Anti-poors entry barrier pricing, and it worked, too.Real reason is FNH absolutely scalped SOCOM on their initial pricing and they can't offer the SCAR (or equivalents) at a lower rate to anyone else without it looking like they shafted the DoD and possibly having contracts cancelled or renegotiated.
>>64407855the SNEED
>>64407855>The GASHThat'd make it a real hit with the ANZACs
