FN SCAR® 16 Standard

Available for Law Enforcement and Military.

Chambered for the high-velocity 5.56x45mm NATO, the selective fire FN SCAR® 16’s innovative gas-operated, short-stroke piston system reduces fouling for greater reliability. The FN SCAR® 16 system features three user-interchangeable, free-floating, cold hammer-forged MIL-SPEC barrels with hard-chromed bores and three-prong flash suppressors. Fully ambidextrous operating controls instantly adapt the FN SCAR® 16 to any user.

The side-folding polymer stock is fully adjustable for comb height and length of pull, and is colored authentic Flat Dark Earth (FDE).
