FN SCAR-H

The FN SCAR (Special Operations Forces Combat Assault Rifle)[3] is a family of gas-operated short-stroke gas piston[4] automatic rifles developed by Belgian manufacturer FN Herstal (FN) in 2004.[5] It is constructed with modularity for the United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM) to satisfy the requirements of the SCAR competition.[6] This family of rifles consists of two main types. The SCAR-L, for "light", is chambered in 5.56×45mm NATO and the SCAR-H, for "heavy", is chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO. Both types are available in Close Quarters Combat (CQC), Standard (***), and Long Barrel (LB) variants.
