Frequently Asked Questions
FN Scar .308 AR for sale
How much is a SCAR 308 worth?
SCAR 308 rifles currently sell for around $3,067–$3,111 used and $3,545–$3,648 new, with some listings reaching $3,738.99 or higher. FN's SCAR 17S and SCAR 20S are the main .308/7.62x51mm NATO variants. Check current listings for the most accurate pricing based on condition and configuration.
Why are they discontinuing FN SCAR?
FN Herstal discontinued civilian SCAR models due to low commercial demand. Military and law enforcement variants remain in production. Existing retail inventory continues to sell through, but no new civilian units are being manufactured.
How much does a FN SCAR cost?
FN SCAR rifles typically sell for around $3,162 on our marketplace, with listings ranging from $3,162 to $3,584. The SCAR 15P carries an MSRP of $3,359, making it not the cheapest variant. The .308-chambered SCAR 17S commands the highest prices, with an MSRP of $3,999, more than the 5.56mm 16S.
Why are FN scars so expensive?
FN's development costs, relatively low civilian production volumes, and premium materials all contribute to the high price. Unlike mass-produced AR-pattern rifles, SCARs are manufactured in smaller quantities, raising per-unit costs. FN also positions the SCAR as a premium product, supporting higher retail pricing.
Is a FN SCAR a good rifle?
Whether a SCAR is "good" depends on your needs. They're accurate, reliable rifles built for tactical use, but they're heavy and expensive, typically $3,162–$3,584. Current models like the SCAR-16S and SCAR-17S remain actively available. AR-pattern rifles often deliver similar performance at a fraction of the cost, making SCARs best for those with specific needs.
Which FN SCAR is the best?
"Best" depends on your needs. The SCAR-16S suits 5.56mm shooters; the SCAR-17S handles 7.62 NATO for longer range and remains an active FN product; the SCAR-20S is a precision variant in the same caliber. Choose based on intended caliber and budget, with prices on our marketplace typically $3,162–$3,584.
Can you legally buy a FN SCAR?
Yes, civilians can legally buy semi-automatic FN SCAR rifles in the U.S. The SCAR-16S, SCAR-17S, and SCAR-20S are sold through licensed dealers, requiring a standard background check. State laws may impose additional restrictions. Select-fire military versions are restricted to law enforcement and military personnel.
Is FN SCAR outdated?
FN discontinued commercial SCAR production, so new inventory is limited. Remaining stock sells for $3,162–$3,584 on the secondary market. The platform remains capable for tactical and hunting use, but buyers now depend on used inventory rather than ongoing manufacturing.
Are all FN SCARs discontinued?
No. FN discontinued its legacy commercial SCAR lineup (16S, 17S, 20S) for the U.S. market, but the SCAR 15P remains in production. Military SCARs continue production globally.
