SCAR

Why do Navy SEALs hate the SCAR?

For many of us from the conventional side of the military (or who never served at all) the FN Scar tends to carry with it a certain appeal. As a rifle designed specifically for Special Operations troops (SCAR actually stands for Special Operations Forces Combat Assault Rifle), it’s hard not to look at the jagged […]

FN SCAR 16S Performance Review

FN SCAR 16S Performance Review

My SCAR 16s review so far has focused on a broad overview of the weapon. Part two will feature how the SCAR 16s handles, shoots, and feels. The intention of my SCAR 16S review is to give shooters on the fence an accurate explanation of the way the weapon functions and handles. I’m trying to avoid […]

An Army Rangers loadout for hog hunting

As tradition demands, when a man decides to get married his best man must take him somewhere to celebrate. We had a few ideas but finally settled on Texas. Why Texas? Well hog hunting of course. Greig had always wanted to go (so have I), and I had a Ranger buddy who lived in the area who could […]

Watch: SCAR 17 Recoil Demonstration

Watch: SCAR 17 Recoil Demonstration

In the following video Lucas of T.REX Arms shred the SCAR 17s. Some individuals tend to think of .308 as a uncontrollable round. However the SCAR 17s has a very soft recoil impulse, and the balance and slow recoil cycle make for a very controllable weapon. Don’t take my word for it though, watch below! […]

The Peshmerga’s German G36 rifles take a bite out of ISIS

The Peshmerga’s German G36 rifles take a bite out of ISIS

The G36 could easily be pictured in the hands of a police commando resembling a stormtrooper who’s escorting Snake Pliskin to some wall of a prison island that was once a chunk of the United States. Instead, it’s finding its way into the hands of Kurdish Peshmerga soldiers on the front lines of a war where it’s muzzle thumping […]

The FN SCAR!

The FN SCAR!

Before the FN SCAR hit the major airways, my unit/battalion of the 75th Ranger Regiment performed testing on these rifles while deployed to Afghanistan. The SCAR is an acronym for, Special Operations Forces Combat Assault Rifle.  The rifle is categorized into two families, the SCAR-L/light version and the SCAR-H/heavy version.  The SCAR-L is chambered in the 5.56×45 […]
