FN - SCAR - good 3 gun choice?

[bsdubois00]

I've been looking at the FN SCAR and really like everything about it - question is - is this a good 3 gun rifle or stick with an AR-15?

stick with an AR. A good AR in 223 tuned for 3gun cant be beat. Stuffs not out there to make a scar softer and quicker recoiling.

Not to mention ridiculously priced.

Seriously dude have you looked at the price?

I want one just so I can be ATAS to the XTREME!

But I wouldn't shoot 3 gun with one.

I had the opportunity to shoot one of the FNH shooting teams rifles recently and it was way not as good as my AR15 for 3 gun. It had a monster comp on it and the sights still moved around a lot from recoil. You can feel the gun recoil more too because of the piston driven aspect of the gas system. It felt weird too with its odd stock and short hadguard. If you gave me one I would sell it to Wormy Dog.

 

[Spiff]

Yeah, the short handguard is the sux. I have no idea what compelled them to make that oops.

 

[mike cyrwus]

youre right about the piston, Jesse.

You cant beat a light volt carrier with a tuned gas system.

SCAR's are purpose built. Not sure what that purpose is, but it certainly is not 3gun.

It's purpose is to be ATAS.
