FN SCAR
The SOF Combat Assault Rifle, or SCAR, is a modular rifle made by Fabriqeu Nationale de Herstral (FNH) for the U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) to satisfy the requirements of the SCAR competition. SCAR is a family of rifles with two main types.The SCAR-L (light) which is chambered for 5.56mm NATO cartridge and the SCAR-H (heavy) which fires 7.62mm NATO ammunition.
Both can be configured into either sniper variant (SV) or CQC (Close Quarter Combat). There is also a single-shot 40mm grenade launcher, EGLM(Enhanced Grenade Launcher Module), which was thrown in at the last minute. Introduced in 2004 as an addition, the EGLM was originally developed for the FN F2000 assault rifle. The EGLM allows the shooter to launch grenades with the middle finger so as not to interfere with the magazine.
