Our Assessment: This FN SCAR 17S NRCH is a modern battle rifle chambered in 7.62×51 NATO, finished in black and built around the highly respected SCAR platform developed by FN Herstal for military use. The NRCH (Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle) variant improves upon the original SCAR design by eliminating the reciprocating charging handle while retaining the rifle’s excellent reliability and soft-shooting short-stroke gas piston operating system. Known for its durability, accuracy, and lightweight construction relative to other .308 battle rifles, the SCAR 17S has become one of the most recognizable and sought-after modern military-style rifles on the civilian market.
This example features a two-position adjustable gas block, folding and collapsing stock with a two-position adjustable cheek piece, and a full quad rail forend for mounting optics and accessories. The rifle is also equipped with factory iron sights, a three-baffle muzzle brake to help reduce recoil and muzzle rise, and includes a 20-round magazine. Altogether, the SCAR 17S combines modularity, modern ergonomics, and combat-proven engineering into a highly capable 7.62 NATO platform equally suited for precision shooting, defensive use, or collecting.
