Hand to get one for personal use after experiencing it professionally!

So it uses the same NATO round as M14. FN_Fal and AR10? Never having seen one in person I'm curious what makes it superior to these other platforms? I know the FAL and M14 make poor platforms for scopes but the AR10 is excellent. |
To be honest, I never fired the FAL or the AR 10, but I definitely prefer the SCAR 17 over the M14 platform.
I found the M14 lacking in versatility if compared to the MK17. I'm just referring to the fact that the modern design of the SCAR is better for a more universal use (close / mid / long) depending on what your role is, vs the M14 is of a bit outdated (yet beautifully classic) platform that would not be as functional in a close quarters environment.
Just my 2 cents, of course. Most weapons can be mastered by the user once they decide to perfect their craft.
