The Next Generation SCAR Rifle in detail

About this video

Colion presents FN’s next-generation SCAR rifle from Shot Show 2026, discussing the extensive redesign with FN representatives. He explains that the platform incorporates customer feedback from 17 years while maintaining core SCAR characteristics, featuring improvements like suppressor compatibility with forward-venting canisters, enhanced ergonomics, a hydraulic buffer system, ambidextrous controls, and modular components. According to the presenters, many upgrades are backward-compatible with legacy SCARs, and pricing remains competitive or lower than previous models.

Key takeaways

• According to the presenters, the rifle features a hydraulic buffer in the bolt carrier that Colion is told softens recoil on both forward and rearward strokes, plus ambidextrous bolt catch/release and enhanced trigger systems
• Colion notes many components are backward-compatible with legacy SCARs and that FN representatives state pricing is neutral or lower than previous models despite the upgrades
