Politics is what happened to the SCAR-L in the army and the SCAR hasnt been getting a lot of exposure in a lot of recent games. For movies, since this is still a new gun, we aren't going to see it like M4s which are in the main stream and has been around so long. The only recent movie and TV show that I have seen with a SCAR is Inception, 24's last season and the remake Hawaii Five-0. Excalibur01 22:41, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

The SCAR is a piss poor rifle to be honest. The (initial) rave reviews from SF types were because they were given the (hand fitted test model) rifle and one (hand fitted) mag of (hand loaded specialty) ammo (on a range, in perfect conditions) and told to give their opinion based on that. FN then refused to actually give any SF guys the rifle to do a thorough testing and evaluation. If you notice the units that got the rifles for testing, none of them have much experience with any rifles other than standard issue, and crap that they confiscate and mess around with on the range (much less experience with evaluating a rifle). In addition, the units that got the rifle never were in heavy combat with them. A few SF types managed to "get ahold" of a couple of (full production) SCAR-H and SCAR-L rifles for a while, and their opinion was that it sucked ergonomically, it had piss poor parts fit up, and was made really cheaply.-Ranger01 22:37, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
