I owned a SCAR-16 for a short period of time. I decided I preferred my AR15 since it was familiar, and I did not have to deal with the reciprocating charging handle. I liked the folding stock though.

If you're going to get a SCAR, get a 17. Whereas there are many lightweight, reliable, and accurate 5.56 launchers out there, the same cannot be said for 7.62 guns.
