I took receipt of my FN Herstal SCAR 16 yesterday. It is a rifle I have wanted a long time. It is not yet a Class III weapon, but it will be when I eventually add a 10 inch barrel. From telcom order to receipt took a bit over a week. I was lucky to find one in stock, they are normally in short supply. I got it much cheaper than most stores sell for but it is still pricey. Thanks to Kenny at Meplat for taking receipt of the rifle and completion of paperwork.
I need to buy a new gun safe before I can buy any new toys. This and the pending receipt of an SBR currently in purgatory will fill up my present safe. I'm still kinda thinking about one of the new AR based PDWs. I saw one on the computer FNH used to have based upon an AR rifle. This PDW that is no longer in production. They have replaced it with one that is a science fiction looking design with the hand grip forward of the magazine and it is all curvey. It is probably an excellent weapon. It is supposed to carry 50 rounds without a huge magazine sticking out somewhere. However, I just don't like the look. I'm very traditionalist. If anyone has a recommendation for a PDW, let me know. Also tell me why you like that particular PDW.
And a PS. I also want a SCAR 17, But I'll pass on it because it doesn't use the AR 10 mags.
