FN Adds New SCAR Accessories

FN has released several new accessory items for the SCAR family. These parts have already been seen on complete guns, but are now being offered for the first time as individual parts. These new parts are compatible with existing SCAR firearms.

FN @ TFB:

• FN America Unveils FN 510 Tactical and FN 545 Tactical
• TFB Review: The FN Guardian – FN America's Most Affordable AR-15

SCAR SC Stock

FN is now selling the stock seen on the SCAR SC (Subcompact Carbine). Obvioulsy, attaching a stock to a pistol like the SCAR 15P would require a tax stamp. But the SC stock fits on more guns than just the 15P, it also fits the 16, 17 and 20 models. The SCAR SC rear stock costs $699.

SCAR 17S 6.5 Creedmoor Barrels

FN also has two new barrels for the SCAR 17, both chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor. The two lengths are 16 inches and 20 inches. These barrels are chrome lined and made from cold hammer forged steel for longevity. Each barrel includes a bolt and firing pin. The twist rate is 1:8 to stabilize all common bullet weights. Both lengths retail for $1,729.

From the manufacturer:

“FN America, LLC is excited to announce the release of three new accessory products for the FN SCAR® family, the semi-automatic version of the rifle originally designed for USSOCOM and the most-tested rifle platform ever developed by FN. Available immediately, the new accessories are the FN SCAR-SC Rear Stock, along with two different barrel assemblies for the FN SCAR 17S chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor.

The addition of these accessories continues the modularity that the SCAR is known for, increasing the configuration choices for SCAR owners. These three new products join a variety of already-available SCAR accessories, including SSR Rear Stocks, barrel assemblies that allow users to configure barrel length based on need, plus the Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle kit.

“From its original development for the U.S. military, the SCAR platform was designed to be configurable for various user needs,” said Ben Voss, Senior Product Manager for FN America, LLC. “The new rear stock and Creedmoor barrels deliver on that promise, making the SCAR more versatile and customizable than ever before.””
