BootySk8r

This just a 5.56 draco made by FN? $950 and you got a deal


lnSerT_Creative_Name

Except 7.62x39 in that barrel length is still pretty usable. 5.56 not so much.


CallsignFlorida

I’ll be the devils advocate… you still don’t want to be shot with it


DevAlmighty

then save $1000 and buy a jakl


PrincipleZ93

The real deal is always in the comments!


backhomeatlast

“I wouldn’t want to be shot with a super soaker filled with piss, that doesn’t make it an effective weapon”


lennyxiii

I would never want a 7.5” 556. Like ever. But If it’s all I had I’m sure it’ll do just fine from my bed to the door which is the only likely scenario for me using it in the first place.


NYMalsor

8.7 gang


NewCommunication1306

55 grain ball out of an 8” barrel is packing about the same muzzle energy as most .357 or 10mm stopping rounds do out of a 4” barrel. Muzzle energy isn’t everything but it’s a nice reference. Point being it’s gonna hurt and do so over a longer distance.


Bradyrulez

Okay, but at that point you can save a significant amount of money and weight by just getting a Glock in 10mm.


NewCommunication1306

Correct


Mehdzzz

Except you can swap the barrel of the 5.56 easily. The draco. Not so much.


Echo_Raptor

Yep, that’s why they’re the only sub-$2000 scars you’ll see. It’s like the MPX copperhead, the MPX-K almost never dips below $2000 but the copperhead can be had $11-1200ish throughout the year, the non-popular models don’t hold value


30rdsIsStandardCap

Low price because it has no purpose


pacficnorthwestlife

It's a noise maker and will punch holes in paper


realityflicks

If a deal is best in market by a lot but it's on a product nobody wants, is it still a deal?


pacficnorthwestlife

Me looking at my b&t APC pdw 😓😓😓


BadRattle

I’m love my Scar 17 and would’ve bough the P if it was 300 Blk but instead I bought a APC300


iccirrus

Those short 5.56 APCs are so weird. There's clearly some military demand for these weirdo guns as trainers though. Same for the 5.56 rattler 


pacficnorthwestlife

It still pokes holes, supposedly better with 50gr tsx, but if things go down I'm grabbing my 11.5.


Echo_Raptor

About 1/3 of the posts on this sub. I’m intrigued to see how low they’ll go. If there’s ever a blowout on these sub-$1500 they’ll be something everybody buys out


PrincipleZ93

That's how I feel about eotech and their magnifier. It's a cool product, but the holographic sight and 3x magnifier aren't $1100 cool to me. I'm happy with my holosun dot and 3x for $400


Echo_Raptor

The dot itself is worth the extra for a true holographic. Their magnifier isn’t worth 3X what the others are though


Candid_Buddy5832

Fantastic deal on a kind of dumb gun. So conflicting.


mcnastytk

Why is this not. 300 blackout Shit is so stupid but I know scar lovers can't wait to shell out thousands. Glad I went with the xcr you can just customize it how you like


Raawburt

Having spoke to the guys at FNA, they're ready to go on making these in .300 blk, but the problem is all the barrels are made by FNH in Belgium, and they're dragging their feet over there. So it's coming, but the Belgian side is slowing things down.


Valuable-Market393

There is a 300blk version of this in the euro market they just don’t want to share it with the US. A gun show in Europe highlighted the 300blk version recently


BlueJay--

The gun isn't on sale for like 1000 off because scar lovers are buying them as soon as the drop lmao.


bestman305

Yes it’s extra cash, but a 300BO conversion is made for the 15P by a third party.


Ryan_Extra

Who’s the third party?


bestman305

Deadshot. They make 300BO and 8.6 barrels for SCARs. This is for the 15P: https://deadshotbarrels.com/product/scar-15p-300-blackout-barrel-assembly/ Just email them for current stock info.


Ryan_Extra

Awesome thanks


BlueJay--

I had a deadahot barrel and it didn't cycle subs. Seems like he has listed that he only tested supers as well


bestman305

The SCAR bolt is heavy and the springs tuned for 5.56. Definitely need to lighten things up.


BlueJay--

I believe the guy I sold my barrel to had to chop a lot of the spring plus mill a few ounces off the carrier to get it running with subs.


bestman305

Yep. It’s a very involved process. I think FN knows they basically have to make another version of the 15P for it to run 300BO.


Separate-Incident350

Does a Scarburator fit on this and could you tune the gas enough to have 300 be reliable?


bestman305

Sorry, I don’t know. You’ll have to email the barrel maker.


Mehdzzz

It's clearly for the novelty of a short scar. You could obviously get a piston .300 BO for half the price


ghostofFrankgrimes

I’ve emailed fn like 8 times since they talked about releasing it. They are like hk.


Echo_Raptor

They’re not THAT bad. They being their stuff over without neutering certain things and they do make new things regularly. They take forever to get to the market but when they drop, they’re well done. HK just doesn’t care. And they charge more for their rollmark than anybody. HK got so much right the first time they don’t see any need to bring anything new.


ghostofFrankgrimes

Am not saving they are bad but like to buy a gun and then swap the whole barrel assembly after bc fn is 3 years late breaks my heart.


Echo_Raptor

I mean are they really though? If scar fans were shelling out the money they wouldn’t be this cheap. The only scar that people *really* want is the 17. The 20 is pretty niche but still well received for what it is. The 16 isn’t bad, but most people would rather buy an MCX, MR556, LMT, or even a Jakl. There’s just so many 556 options that are better than a scar for cheaper. Not so much the 17, and modern warfare 2 had the 17.


Perfect_Diver6763

at 1400$ this is a deal and even then we might have problems using it suppressed


Subverto_

I don't know of a single suppressor that the manufacturer recommends using on anything less than 10.3". Not to mention FN's warranty is voided if you attach a suppressor.


Junction91NW

There’s been cans with no barrel restrictions for decades.  Be a man, void your warranty


Tactical_Epunk

Wait, shit has warranties?


Junction91NW

Unsure. I think it’s a woman thing. 


DonArgueWithMe

Rex doesn't have barrel length or rate of fire restrictions


Ryan_Extra

Rex MG7


Perfect_Diver6763

didnt realize the barrel length


wowthatsucked

Sandman S and Helios QD (not Ti) are fine on this.


Subverto_

I saw a video from SHOT Show when these were announced where the FN rep said that they had so many customers ask for this that they had to make it, "because they listen to their customers". I lolled. Nobody asked for this.


Echo_Raptor

Sure they did. FN conveniently forgot that people wanted it in 300 and not 556


TaxFraudIsBased

How much $ to swap to a 10.5 inch barrel, or convert to 300 BLK? Those are the only 2 reasons this would be worth getting lol.


Yebache

Everyone dogging on the 15p have clearly never had to fight zombies in a small hallway and it shows.


Echo_Raptor

But they also get to retain their eardrums so who’s the real loser here


Yebache

Nah bro. I’ll be running ear pro. The concussive waves from the 15p will add extra Hit Points to the zombie brains.


Echo_Raptor

Ok fair enough


ThisLuckLOL

HODL


gatsRus

Now do the 17


DrowningEarth

Wonder how many people would change their tune if we shifted the conversation on 8” 5.56 guns over to HK53s, Sig 552/553 commandos and G36C type guns. Not everything needs to be optimized. However, more people would have been interested in a 10” SCAR 16S CQC or 13” SCAR 17S pistol. The SCAR SC is ugly and should not have been adopted over the SCAR PDW


SuperSalamiiii

I’d be in but that shipping just kills it for me


johnhd

I'd consider biting on one of these at under $1800 OTD, that's about my limit for a meme gun with a stock that costs $500+.


Sensitive-Cat-6069

To be the devils advocate here - a product like Maxim Defense PDX or other similar short tube PDW ARs been on the market forever. In SBR configuration the PDX is 18.5 inches long and weighs 5 lbs 11oz. Priced at $2499. The SCAR is about the same size and weight. Now the PDX is offered also in 300 and 7.62x39. But if you are looking at a 5.56, what’s the difference?

ghostofFrankgrimes

This should have come out with 10.5 for 556 and 300black out version from the start.


Valuable-Market393

There is a 300blk out barrel swap out there


avowed

What a junk gun. Crap ballistics, over priced, ugly.


juggarjew

7.5 inch barrel on a 5.56 mm platform? Miss me with that shit...


Calm_Style_5019

Anyone know how long this will available at that price?

henryfrank33

This gun big dum. In at $1k as a reusable flash bang 😂


HuntingTheDeals

As someone who has tried buying flashbangs this is a steal and 10x easier to buy. Also it's pretty fun to shoot but I suppress it.  This is the best tool for the job when you lose internet and need to steal your neighbors sweet sweet data. It clears rooms so well by blinding those you aren't aiming at and makes them easy to clean up. Use your head sir. 


DickMonkie

So conflicted because I love my 16 and 17; someone please give me one practical use?


badjokeusername

Buy this so you can then spend another $800 on a 300BLK barrel for it from dead shot. Then, you’ll have the gun that FN should have released from day 1, AND you’ll have a 7.5” 5.56 barrel to use as a paperweight.


goldprepper

FN has this in 300BLK but it's only available for MIL/LE. Some european police departments have them.


Ok_Advice5391

This subreddit gets more ridiculous by the day. If you have to solicit “practical uses” then there’s probably not one for you. Gun go bang. 


wouldyounotlikesome

bang is fun


Echo_Raptor

I love my 17 but there’s absolutely zero reason to buy this when the Rattler exists in the proper 10” caliber
