Two "issues":
First, if you own a SCR, and any "full featured" AR15 upper, wouldn't you be violating the possession of parts to make an AW language in the POS, Blumberg authored-Democrat/RINO enacted AWB? Second, I have heard a number of reports that the trigger pull sucks! Glad to read they are planning a .22 conversion, as well as pistol caliber conversions. |

Something to free float the barrel (with matching walnut finish) would be the supreme treatment.

I don't see the possession statutes that way. I legally have AR's and lots of parts. That doesn't mean any of them would ever be fitted to an SCR. It would be the same as saying you have one legal SBR and standard non NFA rifle. Who gives a crap. Don't configure them illegally and go about your business. |

Second, I have heard a number of reports that the trigger pull sucks! As discussed extensively in this (and other) threads: the earliest runs had a heavy/gritty trigger, but around late-2014 or so Ares changed the trigger setup to something generally approved, and offered modification to any earlier buyers who wanted the new trigger in their early gun. That said, I am genuinely curious to see how long the "SCR... isn't that the thing with the crappy trigger?" sticks around for years after Ares addressed the issue. Maybe a good lesson to a lot of companies as to how initial impressions can stick around long after a problem is fixed. Not trying to gang up on Ares but that does seem to have soured the initial rep of what overall is a cool product. If the Ares rep is still here, any statement on why Ares keeps offering these with carbine-length gas/HGs instead of mid-length? I thought that overall carbine gas has been passe for 16" or longer barrels, so it seems kinda 1990s-esque to keep making them with short gas. Not that it matters to me personally since I'd put the upper of my choice on one, but just slightly curious why the decision was made to make Carbine the defaul vice Midlength. Here's the 20" barrel version with laminate furniture off Ares' FB page: 
Still, cool product overall and I'm glad to see it doing well! |

Also off Ares' FB, this is now my favorite SCR pic I've seen:
Something like this is pretty much what I want to build when I move back to the US. This one is apparently SBR, but in my case I'll do a 14.5" barrel with a welded linear comp, and with a side-charger vice traditional CH. I do like too that in this photo (unlike, baffllingly, so many others) the red dot is actually mounted as low as possible. No idea why other photos have the optics up so dang high. |

Way cool! It looks so handy, like it'd hardly be bulkier than a Ruger 10/22. I know it's probably not literally that handy, but does it feel light a pretty compact package in the hands?

Its definitely got more weight than a 10/22
, but its very balanced and I love the way it handles. It feels much better in my hands than my standard AR's do, but then I've always preferred the ergonomics of a traditional stock over a pistol grip.

It does not move with the bcg, it is basically a collar that rides in a notch on the front of the bcg.

Honestly the trigger reviews have been the only thing keeping me from one as there aren't any aftermarket options yet ( cough..... geissele.....cough) . Does anyone have a trigger scale with the 'new" trigger they can test and report back with. When searching the only thing I can find is that the early ones "sucked bad" and its now "fixed" without any real numbers or explanation on what the issues were and what exactly they changed. |

I believe that early reviewers measured around 10 lbs on the original. The current one is listed at 5-6 lbs. So, basically, it went from terrible to mil-spec-esque. Not a precision/target trigger, but a basic combat trigger. |

I went around to all the major trigger makers when I bought mine, and all of them told me they have no intentions of considering the SCR unless/until it gets much more popular. |

So, since the piston system is nowhere to be found, I got a thought.
on the pic, on the left is the bolt carrier from PWS upper. on the right is the Ares SCR bolt carrier. Can I unscrew the long piston from the PWS bolt carrier and attach it to the SCR bolt carrier???

The original LPAs are basically shotgun sights, my Mossberg 930 came with the same LPA rear sight, but with a larger orifice. |

I really want to give Ares money for some sights that will mount on a railed handguard but they have fallen silent whenever asked about them. I've asked on here, facebook and instagram with no response despite a sales rep telling me a few months ago that they would be available by summer '15.

So, since the piston system is nowhere to be found, I got a thought. on the pic, on the left is the bolt carrier from PWS upper. on the right is the Ares SCR bolt carrier. Can I unscrew the long piston from the PWS bolt carrier and attach it to the SCR bolt carrier??? http://i.imgur.com/pyIZ1tgl.jpg We've never tried the ARES SCR with the PWS upper and so were not sure how much gas they use for bcg mass ratio, etc. The ARES SCR does use a MIL-Spec gas key fwiw. If you're simply looking for a gas piston system for your ARES SCR though, we do offer a GXR gas piston kit in carbine length for these rifles. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Spartikis: unless you live in a AWB state there is no reason for this Carried one yet? Looks to balance like a classic hunting rifle - and significantly lowers sight height over bore, as well. Might not be advantages to you, but clearly there's some interest in the free states for it. |

Anyone Cerakoted their SCR? I know that Ares has a Nickel Boron set:
and I've seen this paint job: 
but nothing Cerakoted yet. |

Does anyone happen to have a picture of their SCR with EVO sights installed?
Or happen to know what the height over bore is for the ARES sights? |

Have the short sporter stock lower receiver and a Vltor VIS monolithic rifle length upper receiver inbound. Already have a spare Colt 16" SOCOM that I'm thinking about sending off to ADCO to get chopped and pinned. Other than that I think I have a good idea of what I want to do. (Make legal length "short" style SCR)
I really wanted to do a side charger but I've also always wanted to use a VIS upper on a build and got a decent enough price on the VIS. Now I just need to decide if I will ever use irons or just save the money and put it towards a nice 1-4 optic. |

https://40.media.tumblr.com/7aa9e352ceec99fb8aa267dbfec4da53/tumblr_nxsrvgt9MF1rrcg2fo1_1280.jpg So, in a thread about a system used in large part by people living in stateswhere they can't even has a normal AR or standard ("high capacity") magazines, you post a pick of a belt-fed AR with all the evil features (that's even a FA lower, isn't it?) @#$%#
(j/k Stickman, your pics are too nice to stay mad at you.) I've only got a MCR, not a SCR, you should feel bad for me!
I feel bad for you because people keep stealing your shit. Me too.... and I had to give the MCR up so some other people could try to take pics of it. That just shows how cruel the world is.
Now I have no SCR, AND no MCR. I can only come to this thread to feel bad about myself... |
