<p>The FN SCAR is manufactured in two main versions; the SCAR-L ("Light") and SCAR-H ("Heavy"). The SCAR-L fires <a href="5.56%C3%9745mm_NATO" title="5.56×45mm NATO">5.56×45mm NATO</a> rounds from <a href="STANAG_magazine" title="STANAG magazine">STANAG</a> (<a href="M16_rifle" title="M16 rifle">M16</a>) magazines. The SCAR-H fires the more powerful <a href="7.62%C3%9751mm_NATO" title="7.62×51mm NATO">7.62×51mm NATO</a> cartridge from proprietary 20-round magazines. Varied barrel lengths are also available for different purposes, such as <a href="Close_Quarters_Battle" class="mw-redirect" title="Close Quarters Battle">close quarters battle</a> or long-range engagements. The initial solicitation indicated that the SCAR-H would also be capable of being chambered in the <a href="7.62%C3%9739mm" title="7.62×39mm">7.62×39mm</a> M43 Kalashnikov cartridge, as well as the <a href="6.8mm_Remington_SPC" title="6.8mm Remington SPC">6.8×43mm Remington SPC</a> cartridge, however, FN is not currently offering this configuration, and the models have likely been cancelled.
</p><p>The SCAR-L, designated Mk 16 by USSOCOM, was intended to replace the <a href="M4_carbine#M4A1" title="M4 carbine">M4A1</a>, the <a href="Close_Quarters_Battle_Receiver" title="Close Quarters Battle Receiver">Mk 18 CQBR</a> and the <a href="Mk_12_Special_Purpose_Rifle" title="Mk 12 Special Purpose Rifle">Mk 12 SPR</a> that had been in service (before SOCOM decided to cancel the order for the Mk 16 Mod 0), whereas the Mk 17 (SCAR-H) had been intended to replace the <a href="M14_rifle" title="M14 rifle">M14</a> and <a href="SR-25" title="SR-25">Mk 11</a> sniper rifles in use. However, the FN SCAR will only supplement other rifles, while issuance remains of the operator's discretion.
</p><p>The semi-automatic only Mk 20 Mod 0 Sniper Support Rifle (SSR) is based on the SCAR-H. It includes a longer receiver, a beefed-up barrel extension and barrel profile to reduce whip and improve accuracy, and an enhanced modular trigger that can be configured for single-stage or two-stage operation together with either a folding or a non-folding precision stock.<sup id="cite_ref-Janes_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Janes-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The SCAR has two receivers: The lower is constructed of polymer, and the upper receiver is one piece and constructed of aluminum.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The SCAR features an integral, uninterrupted <a href="Picatinny_rail" title="Picatinny rail">Picatinny rail</a> on the top of the aluminium receiver, two removable side rails and a bottom one that can mount any MIL-STD-1913 compliant accessories. The lower receiver is designed with an <a href="M16_rifle" title="M16 rifle">M16</a> compatible pistol grip, flared magazine well, and raised area around the magazine and bolt release buttons. The front sight flips down for unobstructed use of optics and accessories. The rifle uses a "tappet" type of closed gas system much like the <a href="M1_carbine" title="M1 carbine">M1 carbine</a> while the bolt carrier otherwise resembles the <a href="Stoner_63" title="Stoner 63">Stoner 63</a> or <a href="Heckler_%26_Koch_G36" title="Heckler & Koch G36">Heckler & Koch G36</a>.
</p><p>The SCAR is built at the FN Manufacturing, LLC plant in Columbia, South Carolina, in the United States. Since 2008, FN Herstal has been offering semi-automatic versions of the SCAR rifles for commercial and law enforcement use. These are dubbed the 16S (Light) and 17S (Heavy), and are manufactured in Herstal, Belgium and imported by FN Herstal's U.S. subsidiary FN America of <a href="Fredericksburg%2C_Virginia" title="Fredericksburg, Virginia">Fredericksburg, Virginia</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> FN America slightly modifies the rifles (supplying a U.S. made magazine and machining a pin in the magazine well) to be in compliance with U.S. Code before selling them.
</p><p>The FN SCAR 20S Precision Rifle chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO was introduced in 2019. It is a semi-automatic only civilian version of the FN Mk 20 SSR. In 2020 the FN SCAR 20S 6.5CM variant was announced chambered in <a href="6.5mm_Creedmoor" title="6.5mm Creedmoor">6.5mm Creedmoor</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-FN_SCAR®_20S_6.5CM_BLK_14-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FN_SCAR®_20S_6.5CM_BLK-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FN_SCAR_20S_6.5_Creedmoor_Review_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FN_SCAR_20S_6.5_Creedmoor_Review-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This chambering has been selected by USSOCOM for long-range use.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Enhanced_Grenade_Launcher_Module">Enhanced Grenade Launcher Module</h3></div>
<p>Introduced in 2004 as an addition, the Enhanced Grenade Launching Module<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> (EGLM), officially referred to as the FN40GL, or Mk 13 Mod 0, is a 40 mm grenade launcher based on the GL1 designed for the <a href="F2000" class="mw-redirect" title="F2000">F2000</a>. The FN40GL is marketed in both an L (Light) and H (Heavy) model, for fitting the appropriate SCAR variant.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The EGLM system features a double-action trigger and a swing-out chamber. These offer two advantages over the <a href="M203_grenade_launcher" title="M203 grenade launcher">M203</a> system, the first being that the launcher does not need to be re-cocked if the grenade does not fire, and the latter being that longer grenades can be used. Like the M203, the FN40GL uses the same <a href="High-Low_System" class="mw-redirect" title="High-Low System">High-Low Propulsion System</a>.
</p><p>The FN40GL is deemed a third-generation grenade launcher, meaning it is multifunctional: it can be used mounted to the rifle or as a stand-alone system; it is manufactured using a number of materials like aluminum, composites, and polymers; the breech opens to the side for use of longer 40 mm rounds including less-than-lethal; and it is mounted on the bottom accessory rail instead of requiring specialized mounting hardware. The FN40GL is attached to SCAR rifles on the bottom rail with a trigger adapter and dual locking clamp levers on the launcher, limiting the ability to integrate with other rifles. Barrel length is 240 mm (9.6 in), and is unique in that it is the only system where the barrel can swivel to the left or right for loading, while other breech-loading launchers pivot specifically to one side. This enhances its ambidexterity, making it easy for a left-handed operator to load under fire. The standalone stock assembly has the FN40GL mounted to the bottom rail as with the rifle, but still has 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 9 o'clock rail positions for other accessories.

Ten examples of each of the four competitors were involved. During the testing, 6,000 rounds apiece were fired from each of the carbines in an "extreme dust environment". The purpose of the shoot-off was to assess future needs, not to select a replacement for the M4 carbine.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>On 25 June 2010, SOCOM announced that it was cancelling the acquisition of the Mk 16, citing limited funds and a lack of enough of a performance difference in comparison to other 5.56mm rifles to justify the purchase. Remaining funds would be expended for the SCAR-H and the Mk 20 sniper variant. At the time, SOCOM had bought 850 Mk 16s and 750 Mk 17s.<sup id="cite_ref-navyuse_37-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-navyuse-37"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> SOCOM had operators turn in their Mk 16s and is not keeping them in the inventory, but started developing a conversion kit for the Mk 17 to make it capable of firing 5.56mm rounds.<sup id="cite_ref-38" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-38"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>38<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>"FN America believes the issue is not whether the SCAR, and specifically the [originally contracted] Mk 16 variant, is the superior weapon system available today...it has already been proven to be just that...recently passing Milestone C and determined to be operationally effective / operationally suitable (OE/OS) for fielding. The issue is whether or not the requirement for a 5.56mm replacement outweighs the numerous other requirements competing for the customers' limited budget.

SOCOM would not purchase the 5.56mm Mk 16. At that point the individual service component commands within SOCOM (Army Special Operations Command, Naval Special Warfare Command, Air Force Special Operations Command, and Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command) would or would not still buy the 5.56mm Mk 16 SCAR for some or all of their respective subordinate units even with overall US Special Operations Command opting not to.<sup id="cite_ref-41" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-41"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>41<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>SOCOM began removing the Mk 16 from its inventory at the end of 2011, and most units have had the rifle removed from service post-2013. To maintain the SCAR as a small-caliber rifle, they are procuring conversion kits for the Mk 17 battle rifle to make it fire 5.56×45mm rounds.<sup id="cite_ref-42" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-42"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>42<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The presolicitation for the SCAR program originally called for one rifle that could be adapted to fire multiple calibers including 5.56mm, 7.62×51mm, and <a href="7.62%C3%9739mm" title="7.62×39mm">7.62×39mm</a>. When requirements were finalized, the decision was made to separate the 5.56×45mm and 7.62×51mm rifles because converting the medium caliber rifle to fire small caliber bullets created an assault rifle heavier than the M4 carbine. After fielding, operators reversed the previous decision and called for a SCAR that could change calibers. The Mk 17 was chosen to be scaled down because it had a larger receiver for the 7.62×51mm round, and so the 5.56mm Mk 16 could not be scaled up to chamber the larger round.
