Thoughts about SCAR Gen 2?
>>64769708It's like the SCAR we all know and love from call of duty but gay and cringe like all CODs after 2012
>>64769708>le worse 416/ar15 nobody asked for
>>64769708i like it
>>6476970810 years to late
>>64769716>nobody asked for>is selling like hot cakespick one
>>64769735id say 15 years late seems like a decent rifle BUT in the sea of ar15s and ar18 piston guns does it do anything better than others?and is it overpriced?
>>64769738NTA but>is selling like hotcakesTo who exactly? Shit isn't available yet. It's going to be a repeat of every single military forward FN launch:>drip feed rifles to civilians for almost a decade>finally open the gates and make the rifle easy to obtain (but keep the price the same, lmao) on the civilian market If you can easily get your hands on one of these before 2029 I will be fucking staggered. If you can get one before 2030 without having your wallet finger fucked by scalpers, I'll buy three.
>>64769708>still a bunch of mismatched shades of FDE like it was built from chinese parts by a /k/ poster>still an ugg boot stock
>>64769708Eugene Stoner mogged it 70 years ago.
>>64769814Hey, if it works for Noctua it can work for FN.
Wow maybe shoulda done that in like 2010. As it stands the SCAR is coasting mainly off entertainment media nostalgia so taking away the iconic look isn't saving anything.
>>64769708>make a big deal about the end of the scar>sell all your back inventory over night without having to mark down prices>release the scarhalf the changes are backwards compatible with existing scars
>>64769708Idiotic, dumb as shit. The original design was superior. The 1913 acted as a heatsink. Laughed at the silicone tab that says "hot" over the piston though. Stay retarded FN.
I like it all except the front sight and stock, but the stock can be changed at least. I want the original sight.
I just sent my 17s barrel to get chopped to 13". Replaces the 6" KDG handguard with the 4" version, Got an after market aluminum lower that takes pmags and a FRT. Now I have a spare OEM lower with a g$ super scar in it and 9 scar mags not being used. Might as well pick up a gen 2 to make use of my spare parts.
>>64769708The Cypher-X upper is still a superior design despite being 8 years old now. No doubt FN copied the IAC internal buffer on their aftermarket bolt carrier. Also looks like the SCAR gained a whole pound in weight… for what?
>>64769708It’s based because it makes poorfags and artrannies seethe like nothing you could possibly imagine. See>>64769716>>64769735>>64769779>>64769814>>64769836>>64770782
About fucking time? Shame it's still expensive and using the proprietary mags and boot stock. That MLOK looks far better than the short shit pic rail they had, actually makes me want a SCAR now.
>>64769708>Mlok handguard that's the same diameter as the old railed handguard>QD cups aren't rotation limited>Gaping hole in handguard covered by plastic piece that says "HOT">Warranty voided with any can except our $1400, 1lb.+, loud as shit flow through>Still going to run ~$3500>Doesn't come with the cool barcode sticker anymoreSome of them are useless improvements, a couple are minor, but overall it's nothing really exciting and it doesn't change much.Nothing about this screams "now a bunch of LE/Mil will buy me!" At best a few more civilian sales.
>>64769814It just isn't practical to color match different surface coating methods.
>>64769708I still want rails though.>>64769814>he isn't shademaxxingNgmi
>what if we make it look like an XCR
>>64769814If the aim is camouflage then having everything be the same colour is counterproductive. You don't want the outline to be gun shaped if you can avoid it.
>>64769708>hydraulic buffer on bolt>receiver extended to grip onto for normal sized humans>front post on rail>(supposedly) suppressor readyGood>fucked the receiver shape up to fit meme AR grips>Mlok sleeve that is too fat and not fixed entirely to the receiverBad>bigger ambi controls>two stage triggerJust okay
>>64769814all based, yeah
>>64770819>Having to cope this hardGrim
>>64769708does the charging handle still reciprocate for some fucking reason?
>>64769708>release a "new" "modern" gun>it's just a slight facelift of an old design>nothing modern about it, not even bullpup, shoots the same type of ammo, same caliber as 100+ years agoGrandpa's new 1911. You're all old boomers buying the same old shit with different finish and grips at this point.
>>64769814>not a two-tone appreciatoratleast your mom was.
>>64772574
>>64770819>every MIC around the world is still just buying ARs >no one ever gave a fuck about the scar everRIP my nigga
>>64769708They made the guns from fortnite real?
>>64769708It's still the same SCAR. It's overpriced and does nothing better than the other rifles already on the market for years. It's for fools with too much money. >Suppressor compatible!(but you have to use ours, LOL)>Now with mlok!>Ambidextrous!>Won't destroy your optics! Incredible!It's baffling FN took this long to fix known issues, this was more than likely just a PR stunt to make sales
a lot of mad poors in this thread
can you suppress it without voiding the warranty?
>>64769708>HOTdid they really extend the handguard so you could grip it further but not shield your fingers from the gas block lol
