Interesting choice of buttstock assembly and Magpul accessories. The MIAD might suggest the trigger module's grip tang has been appropriately shortened to accommodate regular AR grips without end user modification. This of course is all pure speculation... Does that bolt carrier look different to you? Non-reciprocating perhaps? Wishful thinking maybe. Seems we may finally be seeing long barrel assemblies available as well.

Here is a picture of the non-reciprocating charging handle featured on the FNAC. Note the similar notch in the bolt carrier absent from the Mk16/17. Definitely looking forward to learning more.

So they took the MK20 and took away the precision stock that everyone wanted and then brought it to market? ?
Great call. |

Those Magpul sights look different, too. They sit too high... they're either on a riser, or the base is different.

Why would they be soo retarded to get rid of the SCAR stock! It looks like an AR lovers version.

First up close video I've come across. Note the charging handle behavior at 0:50. Reliable information on this weapon is frustratingly scarce.

I am very interested in this rifle. Time will tell how it turns out once it hits the marketplace. I fear it will cost more than $4500 though.
Edited to add: the guy in the above posted video says the charging handle is the same. I would love to have an HK style non-reciprocating charging handle, but my SCAR's charging handle hasn't hurt me yet after 1000 rounds. I still need to put it through a heavy carbine course to render a final verdict. |

Would be highly pissed that a 4k plus rifle is rocking a CTR. Ugly as sin on the CSR...

Quote HistoryI called FNH and they said the rifle will be released commercially by the end of 2015 / begining of 2016. The pregnant guy that is holding the scar looks familiar. |

The charging handle can be locked forward or allowed to reciprocate. The guy at the FN booth demonstrated it. I want this one.
