I bought this SCAR in Dec through FN's military discount program (it was the last FDE SCAR 17S in stock at the time for that program). Is it bad that I just bought 5 more mags and back-ordered 1,000 rounds of Federal XM80 on a credit card out of fear of the election?
Is that your go to round? Just received a case of PRVI Partizan from SG Ammo 2 days ago, no back order.
 
Isn't 2.5-10x too much scope for the 13 in barrel? BTW I like your setup.[/QUOTE]
I also have a Trijicon TA33 with a Green + reticle in .308. I like to use the Nightforce for load testing and hunting. Makes it a little easier on my 61 year old eyes :)

I really like the M80 round, it is very accurate in my SCAR 17.

Gotcha, that makes sense.

Im not taking anything for granted. Without derailing this thread, I think if this election cycle has shown us anything it's how corrupt it really is. She has been chosen, and the media is behind her. I bought up a ton of mags and ammo that will last me a long time. I think for any SHTF setup, personally, I've gotten away from putting 20 different accessories on my 17S. I like it as light as possible.
I just wanted to have it good at everything. I know that it weighs more but that is why I went SBR. Plus I got to play with my suppressor today at the dealer....too bad I still have to wait to take her home :roll:
 
Very nice!
 
Am I the only one who wonders if a Geissele Super Scar trigger might be too light for a general purpose battle rifle? Full disclaimer, I have the same trigger on my 17, but I see my heavy SCAR as more of a DMR than all purpose.
 
What is when SHTF? When there's a zombie outbreak? When the Nazi's invade? When Obama comes for our guns?
It is actually when an HVAC guy is doing a repair inside your ducting near the fan, gets stuck, and has diarrhea. :shrug:
