The one thing other than price preventing me from getting a SCAR is that it takes proprietary mags that cost an arm and a leg.
Okay, they're not that bad, but if I'm going to drop three grand on a rifle, would it kill FN to make it accept mags that cost less than fifty bucks a pop?
Omfg there is enough space to put a qd at the bottom in the center......
