FN will release it as soon as the production is up to speed. Thats what I was told about a year ago when the FN rep stopped by the local store to sell the FS2000 & P90 civi version. I promptly got on the list for the F2000! It releases to us on March 2006! |

Looking forward to both. |

Yep. FN puts out the FS2000 and the SCAR for civies and they will oficially be THE SHIT! I'll buy one of their scatterguns and bolt action accurate rifles. |

So you have no use for a weapon built on a system that uses quick-change barrels, a proven reliable gas system, AR-15 mags, has built in rails where they're supposed to be, folding adjustable stock, proper cheek weld that is adjustable for optics, and comes from a company that is known for building high-quality firearms? Ok, more for me. |

No, I don't. I don't see it doing ANYTHING for me that the AR-15 doesn't do now. Who needs quick change barrels? Sure, sounds sexy but please..... I have a proven, reliable gas system now. I have AR-15 mags now. I have rails, where I want them now. I have an adjustable stock. Folding, might be interesting. Cheek weld? Not an issue now. Reliable company? Not in the commercial world - they legally can't sell AR-15s. More companies, more guns on the market = good thing. Bring it out FN. |

I ran into FN's military sales branch in early October.
They said 1-3 years for the civilian version, since the current production is dedicated to military uses. Kharn |

FN has definately hit the Mother load with bringing out civilian versions. The buyer usually never forgets who their friend is and spends more with them.
Kudos to FN. |

agreed There is actually a company already offering a quick-change barrel for the AR15, and to my knowledge, not many buy it. I will look for the pix if I can find them I will post them. But the point is, most who want different calibers, just get different guns eta pix of the ar15 with quick change barrel  LINK |

What's up with all the short barrels lately? Sheesh.
Of course, the civvie version will be atleast 16" and maybe longer. I think the XCR and the FN SCAR will be competing for my $$$. |

One thing I've been curious about the SCAR as compared to the older FNC....
Aside from the integrated rail mounts (and I assume the upper is alloy as opposed to steel) is there anything fundamentally different in design from the FNC? So what makes the 5.56 SCAR-L so revolutionary? I'm genuinely curious. |

Honestly, I don't give a rat's ass for the -L, but the -H is on my WILL HAVE list.

One "L" and one "H" please! I am hoping the XCR and possibly the FS2000 will hold me over until the Scars come out. FS2000, PS90, and the SCARs, FN is my new favorite gun maker.

You must not have seen the Beretta RX4 yet I can't wait to buy a SCAR-L and SCAR-H. They are on my "must have at all costs" list. |

Neither has the SCAR, so whats your point? Hell I could have put the Styre AUG A3 or Shrike on there, but I didn't. Those listed are going to come out barring some unforseen legislative problem. Well the XRC maybe...we all know about Robarm... |

INteresting, (I haven't signed up at lightfighter so I couldn't view the original post). So what are the advantages of these two changes (multi-lugged bolt and tappet system) over the older design? Thanks, Observer |

If FNH builds it I will come, FS2000, P90, Five seveN, and a SCAR-L.
A.) they are uber guns B.) lets support a company that is actually brining 21st century firearms to the civillian marketplace. |
