My new-to-me FN SCAR

Roverron · #1 10-25-2012, 06:08 PM

I bought this from a friend trying to sell off toys before his soon-to-be-ex got hold of them. This is a slightly used FN SCAR 17S, with 16.25" barrel, side folding and telescoping stock. FDE wouldn't have been my choice of color but for the price I'm not gonna gripe. It's a .308 cal and I don't have optics for it yet. I've only shot it a couple of times with the former owner and will get it to the range once I get thru other things going on! It seems to be a nice shooter and not a heavy gun.
Now I need optics for it........ideas? Same as what I use on my AR?

Ron glad

and I talked you into it.

Sweet Scar... A Aimpoint or NightForce would look great on top.

Thanks! I'm glad he did also. I have research to do on a sight for sure.

Can't wait to see the target, after your'e done shoot'n at it.

Very sweet!!!!

Ron this is what I would put on it. Nightforce 2.5x10x32 compact Zero Stop. it would make a very versitile weapon. That way when you sell it to me it will already have the scope on it.
