THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I've seen some agencies using the HK 416 & G36, FN P90. I was wondering with the huge military success of the SCAR if any LE agencies have gone to the platform? Pics would be great!

I believe that CBP (Customs & Border Protection) use the SCAR-H in their air-wing also Duke Power and Progress Energy (Security/Company Police) use the SCAR-H to protect there power assets in NC.

A few years ago we were doing some training in LA (no, not Lower Alabama). LAPD SWAT was in the bay next to us doing training...I'm sure a lot of arfcommers would have gasped at seeing them using M4's with ACOGs mounted on the carrying handle. Anyway, our instructor was former LAPD SWAT back in the day and he knew some of the guys over there. They came over and one had this strange FDE colored rifle, first time I saw the SCAR in person. The officer said their guys were using it on helicopters. Now this was back when the SCAR 16 was first coming out, don't know it this is still the case. Sorry, no pics.

Customs/Border Patrol is for sure... Guy brought his FA SCAR into shop in Conroe to zero his ElCan Spectre DR. It was awesome.

It has very limited use/deployment with CBP OAM...
