I bought a SCAR 17 a few months ago. It shot Sub-MOA and functioned flawlessly. But once I got past the very sexy look and tacticool factor I decided it was WAAYYY over-priced for what it was. It's a very simple design which is probably much of the attraction for military purposes. The bolt carrier is basically a big block of steel with an AR bolt in it. The lower receiver is plastic, the stock is plastic and most of the rest of the rifle is stamped sheet metal. I sold it soon after I got it and spent the money on a custom bolt gun and a Sig Scorpion .45. I'm much happier!
