Product Overview
The FN SCAR 16S is a 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington semi-automatic rifle built around a reliable short-stroke gas piston system and rotating bolt. Its 16.25-inch cold hammer forged, chrome-lined barrel provides durable service life, while the side-folding polymer stock adjusts for comb height and length of pull. Fully ambidextrous controls, including the magazine release, charging handle configuration, and rotating manual safety, allow the rifle to adapt to a wide range of users.

This rifle is...
This rifle is awesome!! This is the highest quality rifle I own for sure. The controls are ambidextrous and very heavy duty. The fit and finish are impeccable. In the past, I have read many reviews that thought the butt stock was flimsy, or the button to collapse it should not be plastic. These reviews were often years old and don't hold true today. The butt stock is quite heavy duty, while remaining light weight, and has no 'wobble' at all. In addition, the button to fold the stock is metal, not plastic. When folded, the stock locks into place very nicely while still retaining easy access to all controls, or for firing in cramped quarters. I'm sure FN changed these compnents over the years in response to end-user feedback. The stock is also adjustable for length of pull, and has an adjustable comb for getting that cheek weld just right. The sights are great, and of course fully adjustable. It may come in a cardboard box, which is kinda lame for the price, but that does not take away from the high quality product it contains. It would be nice if they included a deluxe soft case with the SCAR, and/or a couple of extra magazines. This is a five star rifle that should last any user a lifetime and then some. Highly recommended!!! You never regret buying the best.

Good service from...
Good service from Buds. This is my fifth order with them since 2008. No complaints. After a good clean and lube, finally got the SCAR 16S to the range. 120 rounds down range with Swiss 80's surplus. No malfunctions. I believe a vertical fore grip is a necessary accessory, if only to keep your fingers away from the charging handle/bolt. Accuracy was very acceptable with 1 ' groups at 100 yds from sand bags (probably more accurate than this shooter). My only complaints: 1. The sling attachment points are aluminum. Slings with steel clips will take no time at all to eat through the aluminum!!! and 2. A cardboard box for a $2500 firearm? Even $700 AR's come with a hard case!

Alright this rifle is...
Alright this rifle is amazing! i DID NOT get the best price but i did get to pay 90 days same as cash to hold it. so thats the price you pay when you dont have $2500 laying around. i have 2 problems with the rifle. the front sight is impossible to flip up with out using a tool to pull it up. contacted FN they said it just need to be broken in. Second problem... why the hell is everything for this rifle expensive!!?? i need a new angled charging handle because the design sucks from the factory. they offer a nice one from Tangodown... $69 plus $12 shipping for a little piece of aluminum. ts crazy
