SCAR 16S Part II: Shooting

[MilitaryArms]

I shot this today and thought I would share it with my INGO friends.

YouTube - Review: SCAR 16S Part II - Shooting

WTHOMFG When did you get this!!??

Isn't the recoil strange on those?

 

[MilitaryArms]

I picked it up last week. Yeah, it's unique but I really like it.

 

[turnandshoot4]

Anything that FN is putting out anymore is just awesome.

Thinking I want one of those, it's one of the weapons they teach at the armorers course where I work.

 

[MilitaryArms]

I'm becoming more and more of a FN fan. I have several of their guns and plan on buying at least two more that I know of. I like their forward thinking and designs.

Nice review.

Good review! What did you think about the muzzle brake? Works very well from what I remember, but man that sucker is loud if you are standing to the side of the person shooting!

 

[turnandshoot4]

Anyone hear if they are going to release aftermarket parts for these?

Nice review of the SCAR.

However, I question this other video (around 2:50)... YouTube - Jimenez vs the 800lbs Gorilla

IMO, it doesn't help your credibility when you try to trick your viewers into thinking they can actually load rounds backwards into their Glocks and they will still function correctly.

Oh yeah, I do like a lot of your music selections...

I think it TOTALLY helps the credibility. Anyone stupid enough to believe that shouldn't be handling guns in the first place.

Like what? They already accept AR-15 pistol grips (some modification may be required on some styles), Magpul has their ergonomic ambi selector, and at least two companies have forward rail extensions available.

Wake me when FN makes repair/replacement parts and barrels of various lengths available.

The selector switch looks nice.

I'd really like a different stock option to be honest. The stock they have now is nice, but doesn't do it all for me. The rifle fully extended is just as long as my 20" bushy. A standard 16" AR is about 4" shorter. I don't see any reason why the stock can't get a little shorter and add a different cheek rest. But that is going to take a while to happen.

That's funny. I thought the purpose of a "review" was to EDUCATE...

It's called a "joke". If anyone honestly thinks they can load a round backwards and have it feed into a pistol and fire, they're too dumb to live and should learn to play on the dotted line in the middle of the road until they're removed from the gene pool.

If you want a 100% serious channel, perhaps you should look elsewhere. I hear fanny pack boy is 100% serious 100% of the time.

It wasn't a review, it was obviously a joke video. Do you really think we were comparing a Jimenez JA22 to a Glock?

Did you think the Obaminator video was a "review" too? Did you think that was really the President?

Good review! What did you think about the muzzle brake? Works very well from what I remember, but man that sucker is loud if you are standing to the side of the person shooting!

The brake works very well. I was impressed. I'm probably going to replace it with a Blackout 51T but if it changes the recoil impulse of the rifle too much I'll put the OEM brake back on. The recoil of the rifle is simply amazing. Just one shooting session and I'm VERY impressed with the rifle. I was ho-hum about it until I shot it. It's one impressive machine.

I'd really like a different stock option to be honest.

VLTOR showed off an adapter at SHOT this year, but IDK if or when they plan to make it available for purchase.

OOOOOOOO. Do they fold?
