FN SCAR: Mk 16 and Mk 17- Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle (USA/ Belgium)

[SecularNationalist]

an apt replacement for our G3s

Simply not possible at this time

Its called a 'battle rifle'. Bigger barrel gives added velocity to the bullet, increasing its range and impact velocity.

Don't you think that when discriminating Battle Rifle from Sturmgewehr, cartridge caliber is the defining factor? Obviously you need a full barrel for both ones not always but mostly for regular service men

The best gun is the one that can get the job done

When compared to this gun which one is better.

Heckler & Koch :: Technical Data | HK417 A2 - 16.5"

I think you misunderstood.

I didn't say that the SCAR 17 would get all jobs done.

Yeah .. Meanwhile KHI SSU guys are into Beretta 160s,M-4s n ARs.. Elite guys amusing M-4s,AUGs etc..

But I vet the newly raised CTF corporals are the best geared special CT units in the country .. With Islamabad guys being the most experienced.

Sorry Bro, these firearms belong to their US trainers. I am not aware of SCAR-H in Pakistani service except from a few pieces acquired for T&E by SSG

SCAR-H is a versatile platform, we can replace ALL G-3 frames, all PSR-1 frames, all M-4 frames and maybe even all MP-5 frames in PDW applications with just one platform, there would be a huge cost cut factor in the long term as all battle rifles, all DMRs, all assault rifles even PDWs can be replaced with one singular platform and the fact that its much easy to train your Army, Spec Ops, Marines, SSGN, LEAs, Paramilitary, Militias, Police Special Units and SSW armed with a singular platform.

Ok, but there are so many systems available are these the only one which offer this versatility?

Because it was purpose built to meet these requirements. HK-417 is another good option but it simply doesn't meet all applications. You can throw in a different 20 inch barrel, hook a bipod and the same rifle can now be used as a DMR.

FNH is already on the open market. Pakistan can afford a license whenever we want. Our economy is larger than the time we bought license to produce a whole heap of HK products at POF. Issue here is when PA feels the need to phase out G-3s because a it would also require re training all of our operators on the new frame to battle effectiveness level. Pakistan would also be in the market for MG3 and MP-5 frames soon.

So according to you money is not the issue and it isn't than I hope we go for it fast
