Perhaps @Combat_Diver could help us get a better view whenever he has the opportunity. The part number of the Leupold scope cited in the Mk20 OM is 118778, which corresponds to the DAGR kit with TReMoR2 reticle. Searching the same NSN #1240-01-619-6564 reveals that ECOS-O deliveries with the TReMoR3 reticle began OCT 2015. So while there are two versions in service, neither model is illuminated.

Awesome thread! Great pics and info. I've had my SCAR for almost a year now. Pretty basic add-ons for now but working towards clone correct bits.
Inbound - MI SSR rail extension in FDE and Vltor ModPod. I'll see how I like them. I know the SRX rail and TD ACB-4 are more clone correct. Next up - Elcan 1.5-6x with MRDS of some sort, maybe on a 45 degree mount. Sling TBD. Clone muzzle device/FH if I can find one. Question - considering the limited availability of an FDE WMX200 and its anemic 200 lumens; I assume on new SF Scout is a better choice although not clone correct? TIA

I have a SCAR 20 and love it so far! This is my first FN and I am impressed for sure. I have a lot of AR's but being so impressed with this has me wanting a SCAR 17. I noticed some of you have both- so my question is do you feel they are different enough to have both. I am trying to tell myself that the 17 is like 2 lbs lighter with the 16" barrel, so different roles obviously. MY LMT 308 is a heavy pig compared to the 17!

I agree- I need both! At least that is what I convinced myself of! I was never a SCAR person at all until I got this one. I am pretty sold on them after doing tons of reading etc. and shooting mine. I may do the 17 next rifle purchase. I never liked the look of them with the long skinny barrel but now I see all the aftermarket accessories for them with the updated forends that cover the barrel better, look better and are more streamlined. So, that is also awesome!

IIRC, there was even a warning on the package about tightening too much and risking cracking.  It's in the EE now for the price of mailing if anyone wants one for spare parts.

I replaced my SCAR 17 factory brake with a Surefire FH762SV-SCAR. After tightening mine down, the Surefire logo is in the 3 o'clock position...wrench flats are at 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock. An earlier post indicated that it doesn't need to be timed so I'm guessing it's good to go... Is that correct? Thanks! |

Who's got the tip for removing the factory mk20 muzzle device? My vice isn't up to the task, even after soaking the muzzle device in boiling water for about a half hour.
Taking suggestions on what to do, or a gunsmith that can do it. @Combat_Diver are you taking the barrel out of the receiver to remove these in the field? I have the tango down scar kit, but there's not enough barrel sticking out to use the padded jaws, and obviously the gas block is covered up. |

Here's how I finally got mine... removed the barrel from the receiver, clamped the barrel in between two wood blocks in my vice tight, heated the muzzle device with a heat gun (concentrate the heat right at the base of the tines as that's actually where the screw threads are, not at the "base" of the flash hider), and then cranked on it with my Magpul Armorer's wrench with a 24" breaker bar attached.
