My dad and I went to the range this weekend to zero in my scope on my SCAR 20s…how did we do?

So I recently bought a SCAR 20s and was able to put on the scope this weekend and so my dad and I took it to the range to zero it in at 25 yards.

I don’t know nothing about grouping and all that cause I’m still brand new to it all. But from the looks of it it doesn’t look bad at all.

My dad is the one who had the two shots closest to the bulls eye. The look on his face was priceless!

I don’t think it’s quite zeroed in yet, but it’s pretty damn close to it!

Surefire FH762SV-SCAR muzzle device Installation Instructions, per Surefire

Hey everyone,

I grabbed one of these MDs and could not find any accurate info on how to install it. So, I reached out to SF, and they looked into it. I wanted to pass along the technical information in case someone down the road needs to find it.

Pic added for reference from another sub member's post.

Email:

"Thanks for your patience. The torque spec is 20-30 ft lbs.

As for the shims required, this muzzle device doesn't need to be timed therefore it actually doesn't require shims, and instead you can just have it hard stop on the shoulder when installing. While this muzzle device is discontinued and the shims are not available any longer, our SF3P-762-M14X1 LH shims will work.

You will want to insert the shims down into the muzzle device. You'll also want to purchase rockset for the installation of this muzzle device."

First scar

I just got my first scar. I’m not a huge fan of the color but it’s growing on me and for the price I could not care about looks

Ultimate SCAR Tuning Kit

Im a bit autistic regarding my gun tuning and have spent many, many hours perfecting my scars. Figured I'd share my tuning kit. A full complement of PMM gas jets, Scarburators, discarders, OEMs, mototech 3 position regulator and the tools to exchange jets. Makes for a very handy range kit to mess with tuning on the fly.

In my travels I've found the best results with keeping the OEM regulator and switching gas jets while using Hux Flow cans. Although, I am currently trying to make a CAT KK run well with my scar 16.

Optic Suggestions - FN SCAR 17s (Gen 2)

Hello,

I am new FN SCAR 17s (Gen2) owner, and was curious if this sub had any optic recommendations since wow... you guys are really into this gun (Im impressed) and probably have some great use experience on gear.

It really was a bit of a vanity purchase for me, as I just thought it was so damn cool and probably the last gun I buy, usually Im pretty utilty-price-performance conscious as my current ones are working guns mainly for hunting and get tons of field time. So I do see it as more of a range/fun gun, that maybe I role in some hunting with (although many claim its an excellent hunting rifle as well.... potentially new main hunting rifle? Ill find out :P).

But ideally I would like to find an optic <1000$ (I will consider recs above, I just generally struggle to see the additional value you get, but hey if there is a rock solid case for it...) that is rugged enough to spend days in the Rockies with, get grimmy, and I guess survive this notorious optic murdering kick? (I see the Gen 2 has improved or fixed this? Not sure if entirely or just better?)

Hoping to get something to at least 10x mag but also having 1-2x short range target aquisition. The use case I see for this is:

  1. Range - Short Range Aquisition Practice <100 Yards
  2. Hunting - Most my elk shots are 200 to 500 yards
  3. Range - Long Rang practice >600 yards

I would like to avoid excess weight but honestly the platform itself is already very light, so w/e, could attach a brick and be lighter than what I currently haul around. But hauling excess weight at 8000+ ft sucks. Preference is FFP, will consider SFP if needed just means range time to work out holds at mid ranges.

As a consideration it appears I can get a barrel kit and shoot 20" barrel with 6.5 creedmoor if I really love it for hunting, if theres a one-fit-all optic that could cover maybe up to 12-14x be cool but not a priority.

A couple that stood out to me with a little cruising the internet and this sub:

  • Vortex Viper PST Gen II 2-10x32 FFP
  • Primary Arms SLx 1-10x28 SFP
  • Meopta Optika6 3-18x50 FFP (yeah... its a hunting optic but good for low light and most my takedowns have been lowlight)
  • Credos? Never used before but claim is "gold standard" for the SCAR

Anyway, really excited to hear your recs and any other SCAR tips you have. Even more excited to get this out on a fieldtrip.

Appreciate it in advance.

Edit: I prefer MIL but MOA fine as well, but bonus for MIL.

Surefire SOCOM Flash Hider Installation Questions for NRCH Scar 16s

This may be a dumb question, but I know the Surefire SOCOM Flash hider has specific installation instructions for the SCAR H/17s (chamfer spacer). Does the same apply to the 16s, or is the installation the same as a standard 5.56 barrel?

Do I need to uninstall the barrel from the receiver to change out the muzzle device on the 10-inch factory barrel assembly or can I leave it attached? For reference, I have the Regosys SMR-9 receiver extension installed.

Impressed

While the new gen2 trigger is improved it's not as good as G super scar. I almost bought another Super scar but right before buying I stumbled upon a Reddit post about aftermarket triggers. A lot of positive feedback on the shootingsight. Actually he might be in the group. Man this thing is awesome. I think I like it better than the super scar in my Belgian. It's adjustable! We shall see when I take it out this weekend. It is so nice and clean. Break is crisp.

PMM/REGOsys 15p question

Hey all. Picked up the 15p in 300 BO. Starting to outfit it and decided wanted to keep it slim, hence thinking of running Regosys 6/7 instead of the KDG offering like on my 20s.

My question to you guys running PMM/Rego handguards, I notice these cutouts on the PMM ones.. wondering if they are for some sort of retaining clip?

Also, for the Rego, can you run the handguards without the optional side grip panels? Or is there some sort of front support there?

Last but not least, for Rego 6 vs 7 I see the 7 juts out further with an optional front assembly that covers the gas block. Anyone running that one and also running the CAT/Velos cans? Want to make sure everything fits.

Sidequest: going to be putting in for the SBR forms and Can, deciding on the stock now.. but am I measuring Overall length stock fully extended and including the can or tip of muzzle device to most collapsed?

Thanks.

Cheers all

Fn Scar is amazing

Long story short, in 2023 I passed up on a new scar for 2700 at a local store not realizing what it was worth. Talked to some friends only to find out I missed a good deal, and the next day when I came back, it was gone.

Saw the psa deal for the same price and I jumped on it and man this is such an awesome rifle. Recoil is not as bad as people say and the rifle is super balanced and light. Can’t wait to add other goodies to it.

I intend to suppress my 15P with Griffin Dual Lok, have Griffin three prong flash hider that does not require timing. Do I still need a shoulder ring? TIA
