FN: SCAR® 17S, .308, 16.25"

Since 2008, the iconic SCAR^® has been the industry standard in gas-operated, semi-auto, modular rifles for the most demanding shooters. And now, it’s even better, with more than 25 innovative upgrades for the U.S. commercial market—upgrades that are worth more than $1,000 with no price increase to consumers.

Suppressor compatible and tested to 16,000 rounds, the next generation SCAR^® 17S heavy carbine offers reduced felt recoil and faster follow-up shots thanks to a hydraulically buffered, two-piece bolt carrier, along with an extended receiver and forearm, and more adaptability than ever. The best part: it retains the legendary SCAR look and performance.

Accessories included: vertical foregrip, piston removal tool and premium soft case with modular inserts allowing users to customize case interior
