SCAR Fielding/Deployment

**SinnFéinM1911** · 10-06-09, 09:59

Just as an update to all who are interested:

I have been on the road for the last 7 months feidling the SCAR Family (MK16/MK17/MK13 w/ all barrels and trigger modules) throughout SOCOM. I will not give spec's on Unit details, but I will let you know that it is going well, actually VERY well and I’m happy to see things in a great place now. Yes, many have already been deployed overseas, and some have seen some in footage on Fox News and some other sources. There are a few developments on the horizon with SCAR that cannot be discussed here but still full speed ahead.

Wondered where you dissappeared to.

I had the chance to fondle one at NTOA and was walked through the field stripping of it. I was very impressed. Honestly, moreso than I thought I would be. There is definitely a lot of thought that went into designing it. I only wish I'd had the chance to live fire it.

Congrats on the fielding!

Thanks for the note, I saw my second example at a recent gun show. I wish they were not so expensive, I would then look more into getting one. Keep us posted on new developments, thanks again.

Wish I could get a 14.5" barrel.

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear things are going well for the SCAR. Please keep us posted; looking forward to hearing about the new developments. Do you know if there are plans to introduce a precision trigger module to the commercial/civilian market?
