Avoid the SCAR like the plague!!!! It has a fatal defect. Two infact. One which was "fixed" by adding a reinforced hinge buttplate which still sometimes breaks. And the second more important failure is part #27, which is a the actual hinge plate. It is made of crappy pot metal that breaks all the time. This peice is basically the center of the gun which holds it al together. There is no after market replacment for this part either. You have to go on a quest to find a retailer who can obtain one.
Now that being said a user on ASC has been tryng to produce a replacment part for it out of aluminum.
If you are serious about gbbrs I suggest you look else where than the Scar, every single one of them I have sold to a customer has broken. I even had a customer who had a catastrophic failure where both his upper and lower receiver shattered.
WE does an excellant job on gbbrs with the exception of the Scar, which is basically a how to not make a gbbr.
Hope this answers some of your questions.
