FN America, LLC is excited to announce the release of three new accessory products for the FN SCAR® family, the semi-automatic version of the rifle originally designed for USSOCOM and the most-tested rifle platform ever developed by FN. Available immediately, the new accessories are the FN SCAR-SC Rear Stock, along with two different barrel assemblies for the FN SCAR 17S chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor.

The addition of these accessories continues the modularity that the SCAR is known for, increasing the configuration choices for SCAR owners. These three new products join a variety of already-available SCAR accessories, including SSR Rear Stocks, barrel assemblies that allow users to configure barrel length based on need, plus the Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle kit.

“From its original development for the U.S. military, the SCAR platform was designed to be configurable for various user needs,” said Ben Voss, Senior Product Manager for FN America, LLC. “The new rear stock and Creedmoor barrels deliver on that promise, making the SCAR more versatile and customizable than ever before.”

FN SCAR-SC Rear Stock

The FN SCAR-SC Rear Stock is a three-position telescoping rear stock that’s compatible with all FN SCAR products. The rear stock is unique for its ability to telescope and completely collapse alongside the receiver for an extremely compact setup. It also features a contoured rubber cheek and buttpad for an ergonomic and comfortable fit.

The FN SCAR-SC Rear Stock includes the rear plate and screws required for installation on the FN SCAR 16S, 17S and 20S, in order to take advantage of the telescoping features. FN has also created an instructional video for owners who want to complete the installation themselves.

FN SCAR 17S 6.5 Creedmoor Barrels

The two new barrel assemblies allow FN SCAR 17S owners to convert their rifle to 6.5 Creedmoor, a more popular long-range caliber. The barrel assemblies are cold hammer forged and chrome lined, giving them the same craftsmanship as the original rifle barrel. The new barrels are available in 16.25-inch standard length and 20-inch for enhanced long-range precision shooting.

Each barrel assembly ships with a three-prong flash hider that reduces muzzle flash, Picatinny rail, gas block, piston, regulator, front sight assembly, and high-pressure bolt and firing pin that are backward compatible with rifles chambered in 7.62x51. With FN’s installation video, a torque wrench set to 62.5-in-lb and a T25-bit screwdriver, owners can easily swap calibers in their SCAR 17S from the comfort of their own workshop.
