It’s a QR code. It seems like some have them, some don’t. Check images in listings on gun broker, it’s probably split 60/40 without/with QR code as best I can tell.

What I really want to know is if these scar20s are 100 percent made in the USA, then why do they still have the import pin ground off in the trigger module? |

Went over to my local guy today to have him remove the factory flash hider on my scar 20S. I installed one of the Ca762ssal/re flash hiders he's selling, he also just so happen to have one of the KBA scar shoulder ring.
Worked like a charm and looks really good on the gun! (Sorry for the shitty photo) Now to wait for the scope and mount to come in.

Was going to give up on the SCAR platform altogether, but I got to play with a MK20 SSR at SoDak Sports in Mitchell, SD today. Now I need to sell more gun stuff, need $4500...

I'll post a link here, but Mods if it's against any rules just let me know and I'll remove it. Surefire FA762SV for sale with mount. Now to find a clone correct transit case or get the specs to have one made? Shows one in stock again. ** |

For the people wondering how similar the 20S barrel is to the 20” 17S, here’s the barrel from mine. Definitely a different beast. It measures 0.79” in front of the gas block, 0.668” after the muzzle step down, and 0.863” behind the gas block. Right hand threads are cut into barrel almost the entire length from the chamber to the gas block, supporting that massive barrel nut (or maybe jam nut). And of course, the larger six screw barrel extension.
I’m pretty impressed, this is a beefy barrel.  Attached File Attached File |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By eMc9001: Pretty sure that's the 3.5-15x50. The 5.5-22 has a little bit longer mounting length from the turret too where the housing flares out. I watched that clip several times myself the other day lol. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By vanquishings: Contacted NF, they said all the 3.5-15s have a "Made in USA" right in front of the elevation turret. This one doesn't. They said they did some prototype 3.5-15s that didn't have the made in USA. It could be one of those, but I think that's unlikely given the timeframe, and the fact there were only a few of the non-marked prototypes ever sent overseas.  . It's super hard to tell off the picture honestly. I just noticed from the short distance of the mounting area, even though the 5.5-22 is only .6" more.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By vanquishings: Right? Plus, we're only talking a difference of 6mm. Not something easily discernable off screen caps. NF thought it was a 5.5-22, but their said their guess was good as mine, understandably. It is SFP, too. May look at some of the other options. Still trying to figure out what optic to throw on top of this Mk20. |
