All verified reviews by owners SCAR 17S JOHN - Fruitland, IDAHO 05-01-2012 " FN hit a home run with this rifle. This is the quintessential large caliber battle rifle...inchangeable hammer-forged barrels, freefloat handguards, ambidextrous controls, short-stroke piston system and chambered in the legendary .308! The negatives are, the price well out of most peoples price range and the lack of magazines. "
