FN M249S Centerfire Rifle from one of the most storied military gun makers, FN. This collectible is a semiautomatic version of the machine gun that American troops have carried since 1991. Rugged polymer buttstock is ergonomically shaped for a solid cheek weld, while the pistol grip puts your body in the best position for accurate shooting. Trigger pull adjusts between 4 and 6.5 lbs. Quick-change cold-hammer-forged stainless steel 20.5″ machine-gun barrel boasts a flash suppressor to hide blinding muzzle flash in low-light conditions.

FNH USA FS2000 Tactical Forend
FNH USA FS2000 Tactical Forend Installed
Review from the internet – “You can’t beat an OEM part made by the gun manufacturer. This is made by FN and carries their logo. It is the quality you would expect from FN. It will install VERY easily if you can field strip your weapon. The instructions make it look more involved, but once you see what’s going on, it takes just a few minutes. I purchased this to install a vertical grip and it fits the bill just great. As indicated in the instructions, the barrel installation is a little stiff, as the tolerance is tight. Very quality piece with everything in the quality you would expect from FN.”

VLTOR SCAR STOCK ADAPTER
This Vltor SCAR Receiver Extension Stock Adapter is a drop-in, non-folding replacement part for the standard FN SCAR 16S or 17S factory buttstock assembly. This machined aluminum FN SCAR adapter provides a rigid platform onto which any mil-spec diameter collapsible AR-15 stock may be installed. This results in an enormous amount of options from which the shooter may choose in order to personalize the rifle to his or her individual specifications.
FN SCAR STOCK ADAPTER | VLTOR SCAR STOCK ADAPTER
The Vltor SCAR stock adapter features 6 different length of pull positions. The Stock adapter can be adjusted up and down to alter comb height for use with different sighting arrangements. Unlike the OEM stock it replaces, the VLTOR SCAR adapter incorporates a generous, o-ring sealed storage compartment inside the hollow extension tube with room to carry batteries, cleaning supplies and/or small spare parts.
For shooters who don’t use or feel the need for the side-folding capability of the factory supplied SCAR buttstock, the Vltor adapter is an excellent way to increase the gun’s modularity by outfitting it with the ability to accept many of the different AR-15 collapsible stocks on the market.
The VLTOR SCAR STOCK ADAPTER comes complete with a pair of quick detach sling swivel sockets (one on each side of the adapter block).

VLTOR SCAR STOCK ADAPTER INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of the VLTOR SCAR AR-15 stock adapter is simple, with no permanent alterations to the host rifle required.
Simply remove the factory FN SCAR stock and slide the aluminum Vltor adapter block into the receiver. Next slide the male dovetail of the receiver extension tube in from the top to engage the female dovetail of the adapter block. Finally sdjust the extension tube up or down until the desired position is obtained. Use a bullet tip or other similar tool to tighten the large locking screw on the adapter’s side to secure the tube to that location.
A Mil-Spec diameter collapsible AR-15 stock may then be installed on the extension tube in the normal fashion.
NOTE: This SCAR stock adapter is the Commercial variant, and fits Semi-Auto FN SCAR 16S (Light) and 17S (Heavy) rifles ONLY. Not compatible with select fire SCAR rifles.

Today it’s no small feat to introduce a completely new weapon platform and have it succeed in a land dominated by the AR15 and to a lesser degree the AR-10 and 308AR. FN has managed to do just that with the FN SCAR platform. While the FN SCAR might not be as modular as the at aforementioned AR-15, AR-10 and 308AR the after market upgrades from FN as well as third party sources are a testament of the platforms success. To that end FN is offering three different SCAR BARREL ASSEMBLY upgrades.

AFTERMARKET SCAR BARREL
by Combat Rifle | Jul 6, 2015 | Semi-Auto Rifles |
SCAR TRIGGER GEISSELE AUTOMATICS: The FN SCAR16s, and FN SCAR17s have become commercial successes. Commercial success is no small feat in an AR15 dominant country. One of the way’s I judge the FN SCAR platform as a commercial success is the availability of aftermarket parts beyond niche manufacturers. When you see companies like Geissele Automatics who dominate the top tier lever AR15, AR10, 308AR triggers now producing SCAR Triggers and selling them at Brownells and the other usual sources, it’s time to pay attention. Unfortunately state laws prohibit me from owning a SCAR.
Geissele Super Scar Trigger
The Super SCAR Trigger by Geissele is a two-stage, semi-auto only, drop-in replacement trigger. The Super SCAR gives a clean and crisp 4-1/2 lb total trigger pull comprised of a 2-1/2 lb first stage followed by a 2 lb second stage. All components are black oxide coated to provide outstanding corrosion protection. The trigger kit comes complete with all parts, springs, lubricants and installation instructions necessary to install in any SCAR 16s or 17s.
SPECS: The Geissele SCAR has a total pull weight of about 4.5lbs – 2.5lbs on the first stage and 2lbs on the second stage. The pull weight and sear engagement are not adjustable by the shooter.
The Geissele Super SCAR trigger is a semi-automatic trigger that Geissele has developed as a retrofit for the FN SCAR 16 and FN SCAR 17. The Geissele Super SCAR trigger is designed to only fit into the standard polymer trigger housing manufactured by FN. The SCAR trigger is a non-adjustable, two-stage trigger but it is not a Match trigger. The Geissele SCAR trigger is ideally suited for Close Quarters Battle (CQB) and mid-range work. Comes with Aeroshell #6 Lubricant.
Note: The Geissele Super Scar trigger is designed to fit into the standard FN factory polymer trigger housing ONLY.
