FN SCAR 20S
Short-Stroke Gas Piston Operation
The FN SCAR 20S is a purpose-built precision rifle designed for long-range dominance. Drawing directly from the military-proven SCAR platform, including the MK 17 and MK 20 SSR, the SCAR 20S delivers unmatched performance for shooters who demand accuracy, power, and reliability in one uncompromising package. Chambered in 7.62×51mm NATO, this semi-automatic marksman rifle offers sub-MOA performance with a combination of elite engineering and practical ergonomics.
At the core of the FN SCAR 20S is its 20-inch heavy-profile, cold hammer-forged barrel with chrome lining. The longer barrel length and optimized contour provide enhanced ballistic performance and sustained accuracy out to 800 yards and beyond. The short-stroke gas piston system significantly reduces felt recoil and carbon fouling while maintaining rock-solid reliability in any environment. Whether you’re engaging steel at long distances or working in adverse conditions, this rifle is engineered to perform.
The rifle features a Geissele Super SCAR two-stage trigger, delivering a crisp and consistent break between 3.5 to 4.5 pounds—ideal for precision shooting. The monolithic upper receiver includes a continuous MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail at the 12 o’clock position for seamless mounting of optics and accessories. Paired with an adjustable fixed buttstock, the SCAR 20S allows users to fine-tune both length of pull and cheek weld for a custom shooting experience.
Each rifle ships with a 10-round steel magazine and is compatible with SCAR 17S magazines. With premium construction, proven battlefield lineage, and enhancements geared toward accuracy, the FN SCAR 20S stands as a premier choice for serious shooters, competitive marksmen, and collectors alike.
