Nice looking rig, by the way.

Hmm, that's interesting. I've never seen one on a Mk20...just the SV. They are pretty similar, though.

...some NSW pics from a couple years ago.

That last pic is interesting. 17 with 20 stock. MK6 and it appears to be an old SD can of the smaller variant.

What I'm noticing in all of these photos is the Mk6 mount from Leupold is different on the .mil guns than mine- also from Leupold. On the one I just got, the mounting nuts are on the left side. On everything pictured, they are on the right, ejection port side.

As I shoot rifles left handed I ordered the LH mount. But I noticed all the .gov guns had the RH mount and the commercial photos showed the LH mount.

Bought a used T1 last night and ordered the 34mm mount. Should be here Thursday but now I need to track down the oem low mount for the T1.

A short version of the SCAR-SD 762 (think M4200 length) does exist. It utilizes the 51T MITER Mount.

A buddy of mine has one. AAC told him very few were produced for SOCOM at their request for the 13” MK17. I’ll see if I can get a few pics.

ETA: Forgot I had this pic. Next to standard SCAR-SD for comparison.

Yeah, can very safely assume that's a 5.56 can, not any variant of the 7.62 SDs.

I also tried the LaRue and found the same thing. I just ended up mounting it on top with the Aimpoint mount but damn it’s tall..

Most likely a DD offset.

MGW has them mis-labeled on their web site.

The flash hider you're seeing is the "ECP" (Engineering Change Proposal). It has been the mil-standard since about 2012 when they scrapped the AAC suppressors. Mates to the FN suppressors and comes on the barrel kits that FN offers.

The "European" (Belgian) flash hider is the standard flash hider outside of the US market. Every once in while a small batch makes it over here. Stryker Enterprises and MGW had them a while back.

Having used them, I don't totally love that suppressor. It has a tendency to make you think it was locked in place, only to go down range when you pull the trigger. Definitely something to be left in place, once you have it on right.

I’ve heard several others report similar. That being said I would buy one and just leave it on. Can’t be any worse then my SDN6 that my SCAR has ate.
