The SCAR™ family was originally designed and developed by FN Herstal following a solicitation by USSOCOM (United States Special Operations COMmand) for a family of assault rifles, designed around two different calibers but featuring high commonality of parts and identical ergonomics.
FN Herstal took part in the full and open competition and was chosen among nine bidders.
The SCAR™ family consists of two highly adaptable modular rifles, the SCAR™-L chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO caliber and the SCAR™-H chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO caliber, and the FN40GL™ 40mm low velocity grenade launcher.
Both SCAR™ rifles are available with two different barrel lengths: a short barrel for close quarter combat and a standard barrel for longer distances.
The FN40GL™ grenade launcher quickly mounts onto the lower rail of either SCAR™ rifle and can be easily configured for use as a stand-alone weapon as well.
All visitors coming to visit our stand at Eurosatory will get their own SCAR™ package including Dick Kramer poster (subject to availability).
Our stand will be located in Hall 6, Belgian Pavilion, stand No. F100k.
