I've wanted a SCAR-17 for quite some time and finally had the discretionary funds available to get one but held off with the hopes that one of these variants would finally make it to the commercial market.  Does anyone have an idea if they are still in the works?  Seems like the latest and most relevant info I found said early 2016.

Thanks for any info

FN doesn't even know when they'll be available... This company showed the ballista rifle at 2012 shot show and it's still not available.  That was four freaking years ago!!!  Don't hold your breath man and any "new release date" is just horse shit.  When I can walk into a gun store and buy one is when it's available.

Thanks

I figured as much. I just found a SR-25 to hold me over.

While your time line of the Ballista is accurate you might want to check Gunbroker. I don't know if the lawsuit has been settled, but there were at least 5 or 6 Ballistas for sale earlier this week. Only 4-5 years late hahah.

Asked at the NRA show and the guy gave me nothing. But they are selling the 20 inch barrels... I am kind of cashed out on the whole idea at this point myself. When they release the mk20 it will cost an absurd amount of coin and I can buy so many other things.
