    SCAR SBR CQC replacement barrel

    I see that these folks are making replacement barrels for the SCAR platform. That said, there website "about us" section defines them as producing various barrels for different platforms with great success and confidence.Both in the manufacturing process and modifying customer barrels as well.
    Any troops able to comment on there work or production?

    Just as an FYI, FN is making SBR length barrels for both the SCAR and PS90 so folks can SBR them.

    They did not give me a date, but said they are working on them.

    I am an LE Dealer so don't know anything about their Civy policies (sorry). I do know that we will be stocking them.

    I'm glad to hear this! I emailed them last month and they stated they would not be making any 10.0 bbl. I'm glad they changed their minds!

    So "reading between the lines" you will need LE credentials to purchase the FN barrels.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but hasn't the 10.5" barrel always available for the SCAR? In fact, the very first SCAR L I saw and got to shoot was in this configuration.

    All FN has to do is release the barrels for sale to those individuals who wish to SBR this rifle. Even if they will only do so to those with the approved ATF forms this would be a step in the right direction and would certainly help convince me to get a SCAR.

    But the lack of available spare parts as well as short barrels pretty much convinced me to hold off and just build myself another AR-15.

    Correct (if your PD/Agency/SO) bought a FA SCAR. The issue is that all short barrels are made in Belgium and cannot be sold in the US. This is why FN USA is going to produce them in the US (so that they can be sold).
