Took my new SCAR17S out for the first time yesterday.
Man, that's a fun gun to shoot. No stoppages, and great groups with the iron sights.
Got it home and gave it a cleaning. I was stunned. There was very, very little fouling present after 300 shots. Was shooting surplus Malaysian 7.62 NATO, the same stuff which utterly blackens the insides of my G3.
The SCAR is perhaps the cleanest shooting semi-auto rifle I've shot.
Seems to be a common theme with FN weapons. The FN FS2000 is also super clean, as is the PS90, and FN Five Seven.
Great family of firearms!
