Scar 17 vs lrb m14
If you've ever thought you might like an M14/M1A, I'd suggest getting one, you won't be disappointed. The rifle was incapable of being flattered, but I sure was. From 1959 to 1970, the M14 served with distinction as the standard issue rifle of the United States military after the revered M1 Garand. Military rifle that dominates the competition fields and the heart of America. On the first outing, everybody at the range came by my station and wanted to check out the M1A, even though I had a variety of interesting firearms with me that day. Descended from the M14 rifle, the M1A is a civilian-legal semi-auto version of that revered U.S.
Sure it's old tech and is much heavier than most, but there's a feeling I get when I hold this rifle, an old school piece of American metal, like holding a piece of American military history in my hands. I've only had it out once so far, and am quite pleased with it, I'd go as far as saying it's currently the favorite rifle in my collection. I'd planned on shooting the rifle a few times without any modification, just to get a feel for it. I'm still discussing the various options for mounting some targeting optics with my gunsmith, so the only accessory I've added so far is a rawhide sling. Basic question as stated: I have a limited chunk of change (call it 3,500) trying to decide between a FN SCAR 17S and a M1A '+ goodies. It was more accurate the FN SCAR-H and more. The LMT MWS-308 recently been adopted by the UK military as a 'DMR' type rifle. In the meantime, I've been eyeing the LMT MWS-308. Also, waiting to see if Magpul will make SCAR-H magazines. I'm sure I could easily bring it down to ~1.2 MOA.Yep, I picked up a SA M1A, with a walnut stock and match grade barrel, back in August. I have an LRB in a SAGE stock, it has a 'lightweight' Criterion barrel, but the thing is still so heavy compared to my SCAR that shooting offhand, I just can't hit with it as easy as I can the SCAR 17. Figure by that time, the price on the SCAR-17S will also have gone down a bit. It truly puts a smile on my face.Īs a side note, I was digging up some old targets and I found the single accuracy target I shot with the 3-9x scope and 168gr FGMM and it measured ~2.1" which is great for a battle rifle that has no accuracy modifications.
It's always nice to see that the videos are helping people get their rifles up and running. 595" - 32 barrel thread, and then decide on the optic. Last night I ordered a Magpul PRS Gen 3 stock, and only need to order a flash suppressor for the. To date I have the rifle almost finished, thanks to your videos and help from Jeff along the way as well. The SCAR w eapons offer a reported 80 parts commonality between the two variants. Even Fulton and LRB have a bunch of hourly employees building those. The MK16 takes a 30-round magazine, and the MK17 takes a 20-round mag. When you handle a SCAR-17, it makes you a bit sad-because that gun is just so much. I also purchased one of his CBR chassis at Camp Perry in July, and also bought their parts kit. The SCAR w eapons are modular, and military operators can choose barrel lengths of approx. This summer I purchased the XM21 receiver with head-spaced 22" NM barrel from Jeff. For a competitive FN SCAR price, you get the semi-automatic only version of the U.S. Your videos are very instructional and helped me very much for my first M14 build, which is also a Bula. When you need to dominate the competition, the FN SCAR for sale online exceeds expectations of typical civilian rifle performance. Thanks Tony, excellent overview of the Bula CBR.
