thinking about getting a semi auto 308, should I get a scar

The MR762 is going to be the more accurate of the two. However, if you just want to bang rounds down range and run around playing OPERATOR, the SCAR is going to be lighter.

MR762 is heavy as fuck. Getta SCAR

>>34049831

If cost is not a factor, the mr762 and turn it into a G28 clone. Complete money pit, but you're probably never going to run into another one at the range (at least in the US).

>>34049865
>The MR762 is going to be the more accurate of the two.
not cold bore shots.

SCAR's problem is that the barrel profile is very thin.

If cost is not a factor, buy both.

>>34049831
Mr762, the SCAR is an overpriced pladtic fantastic that is only that expensive so FN can sell them to SOCOM for a several times markup

>>34049926

i just dont see the point of having two guns that do pretty much the same thing, i probably won't buy the other for atleast 5 years.

>>34049933
So much misinformation in this fucking post...

>SCAR is an overpriced pladtic fantastic
false. Only polymer part that is metal on the MR762 is the lower. Stock has an aluminum rib. And if you're breaking the plastic hinges, you're probably retarded. However you can rectify that with a 200 dollar aftermarket replacement.

>that is only that expensive so FN can sell them to SOCOM for a several times markup
Current mil procurement cost for SCAR L is less than a grand a piece. SCAR H should only be slightly more.

How does it feel to be poor and dumb?

>>34049933

The consumer market SCAR rifles are expensive for one reason: because they can be. They have to make the process of importing and converting them worthwhile.

>>34049831
the battlefield vegas guy said that the SCAR is one of the most reliable guns at his range and they put hundreds of thousands of rounds through their guns

>>34049969
>plastic is FINE for major parts!
>t-the hinges break despite having all that bearing surface so you might want to replace that...
Nive damage control, theres a reason no one else bithers with polymer trigger packs but stupid meme AR companies

I bought a larue predatar in .308, put a uso 1.8-10 and an offset micro on it. It's handy and not too heavy to carry,and shoots sub moa with fgmm.

Although if you don't have to carry a rifle long distances you might want something with a heavier profile barrel.

>>34050327
You tell me.

>>34049831
yes

>>34049831
Semi-auto 308s cost so much in ammo it really kills the fun.

>>34049831
Either one is fine. Scar is more flexible. You can make it a BR or DMR. HK is just HK. The craftsmanship and engineering will be a work of art. It'll be insanely accurate for sure.

>>34050004
It was the SCAR 16 he was talking about, not the 17.

unironically the DPMS Recon G2 is also a viable and cheaper option

>>34049831
Do you want a light, handy .308 carbine where 1 to 1.5 MOA is acceptable? Get the SCAR 17 and use the $800-$1000 you saved over the MR762 to go toward an optic.

Do you want a semi-auto precision oriented .308 where you'd like sub-moa accuracy? Get the LMT MWS and use the $1000++ you saved over the MR762 and its $60 proprietary mags to go toward an optic.

>>34049831
Get the Scar, MR762 is a watered down HK rifle and not worth it.

>>34051327
>DPMS
Thats like recommending a Kel-Tec

>>34049831

You seem to have money. Why not SIG751?

Honestly just build an AR-10 senpai.

>tfw this magnificent rifle didn't see very widespread military adoption

>>34056221
Ironically it is better as a semi auto weapon, full auto at below 8 pounds isn't exactly going to be controllable

>>34050327
Dubs dont lie

>>34050033
Tell us how it feels, right after you finsh explaining how a metal can be a polymer.

>>34056281
Yeah well for battle rifles full auto indeed has very limited use.

>>34056388
Why don't you try applying some fucking reading comprehension?

>>34049831
I just bought a POF P308, I like it. I also have a Sig 516 and significant trigger time on the M27. For what it's worth the P308 has the simplest piston/pushrod of the bunch. Not trying to sell you on it, just throwing an option you might not have though of out there

>>34049831

Only the M762 could make the SCAR look like a deal.

>>34051327
I have all three. The DPMS Gen 2 isn't even close to the other two. This is after I've replaced the handguard to make it lighter, the trigger, and installed an adjustable gas block. It wouldn't even run suppressed without an adjustable gas block it was so over gassed from the factory.

>>34057070

what would be your pick btw the two?

Why don't you just pick up the hi-point 308?

Really light plastic construction, lifetime warranty, 1/8th of the price of a comparable battle rifle.

LM8 desu

>>34057201
The SCAR17s. Its combination of light weight, low recoil, and better than expected accuracy just isn’t paralleled in the market. There are plenty of other heavy, accurate .308s like the MR762.

I was looking for a semi-automatic AR in .308

I considered the SCAR even though it was more than I wanted to play, but I didn't get it because I have a suppressor and folks say that the barrel threading on a SCAR isn't sufficiently high quality to hold one.

I picked up a Bushmaster XM-10 (model #90828) and it's great.

Later, I also considered Ruger SR762 because of the adjustable gas system to allow me to tune the gas and complement the same suppressor, but I already had one AR in .308 and didn't need a second, really.

You're not intelligent enough for a SCAR. Glad you didn't pick one up.

>I am trying to get a muzzle brake style suppressor adapter to align square on a SCAR 17 HEAVY. I have not been successful in getting the can to align properly. ...
>Are you saying the barrel threads not center to the bore or just the shoulder not square? ...
>I will concur that it sounds like either the threads are not concentric to the bore or that the shoulder is not square. With either one of those problems, the only real solution would be to re-thread. That being said, for a SCAR 17 costs, I would expect it to be perfect and I would send it back to FN for repair.

etc...

Like I said, less than optimal barrel threading.

It's over, FN is done for. Sell all shares.

>>34049831

Go to range. Rent both. You'll know which is the one.

>>34057290
heavy as FUCK.Also not very accurate.

>>34057832

patently false.
Don't listen to fags who don't own one.

How is the accuracy for the POF guns?
