It starts with the design. The SCAR 20S features both short- and long-stroke gas systems.

Both of these systems allow the rifle to be easily adaptable to any circumstance the shooter may find themselves in with outstanding reliability.
The SCAR 20S also features FN’s three-piece modularity. The rifle can be easily broken down into three major components, allowing for greater portability. In addition, those components can be further broken down when needed, allowing for much more customization potential with a range of accessories and optics.
On top of all that, the SCAR 20S features a good-looking, lightweight aluminum receiver that is sure to impress. It has the classic lines of a standard bolt-action rifle, with an added bit of flare.
Finally, the SCAR 20S also features an innovative stock system. This stock system offers a unique blend of comfort, customization, and adjustability. The stock comes with two adjustable recoil pads and three adjustable cheek risers. It also comes with an adjustable comb, making it ideal for larger frames. The entire stock system is designed to help increase accuracy and recoil control—all while providing necessary comfort and a personalized fit.
On the range, the FN SCAR 20S NRCH 7.62 NATO Rifle is a pleasure to shoot. Thanks to the wide variety of customization options, it can be tailored to fit the exact shooting needs of just about anyone. From the short recoil system to the forward mounted accessory rail to the adjustable stock, the SCAR 20S is an incredibly capable rifle. And when shooting, the rifle performs incredibly well—with minimal recoil and tight shot groups.
For precision shooters, the FN SCAR 20S NRCH 7.62 NATO Rifle is a no-brainer. From its sleek design to its capable features, it encompasses everything that makes FN one of the top gun makers in the world—making it an excellent choice for anyone serious about hitting their target.

Accuracy
The FN SCAR 20S NRAH 7.62 is renowned for its superb accuracy. With its light 19-inch barrel and precision two-stage trigger, the adjustable stock, full-length MIL-STD 1913 rails, and free floating barrel, the FN SCAR 20S guarantees sub-MOA (minute of angle) accuracy with a 100-yard zero. With its cold-hammer-forged stainless steel barrel with a bore chrome-lined for better temperature management and maximum durability, this gun can shoot a 1.5" group at 100 yards with factory match grade ammunition, and a 2" group with standard ammo. This rifle will consistently shoot 1-inch groups with lead tips and .308 Winchester ammo, and will perform even better with quality match grade ammo.
