Here is my program to field a modular rifle system like the SCAR-L series. Built around Vltor VIS-2 midlength uppers. VIS-S (mirror to the SCAR-Standard Varient); a "general purpose" assault rifle:  14.5" lightweight barrel by CMMG Aimpoint (but I'm thinking of going EO Tech) VIS-DMR (mirror to the SCAR-Sniper Varient); a "squad designated marksman" precision rifle:  18" SPR stainless barrel by WOA Nightforce 2.5-10X |

I don't want a gas piston AR. I may or may not paint them; I've experimented with KG Gunkote and Norells, but I'm not impressed with the durability. For those late to class, here is what I was emulating: SCAR-L (Standard Varient):  SCAR-L (Sniper Varient):  Makes sense. Short, light barrel for general purpose use, and longer, heavier, better made barrel for precision use. |
So it's like the SCAR, except it's nothing like it at all? Except that the barrels are similar length and profile? I don't think you're the first person to free-float a 14.5" barrel.  Very nice looking guns you've got there! I just don't see a similarity with the SCAR.

The SCAR is a modular assault rifle. The same basic reciever is used with different barrels to create varients tailored to a specific role. In the case of the SCAR there are three varients: CQB, Standard, and Sniper Varient. What I have done is to build a similar system; since SBRs are verboten in CA, I have only made equivalents for the Standard and Sniper Varient. Is that so hard to understand? |
