Hi Laur,



Once again good updates. I read the same story while ago. SCARs will enter into service, but won't compensate SASS rifles.



Carpe Diem,

MJ, can you say then what role will play that SCAR sniper version? Is it like squad marksmans rifle then?



Some news about productions.

Hi Laur,



SCARs aren't a true purpose built sniper SWSs like SASS rifles or better say SASS  SWSs. SCARs are multipurpose modular rifles "jacks of all trades, aces of none".



You're right on track, basically squad markman rifle like Mk 12 Mod 0s and Mod 1s, not sniper SWSs.



Carpe Diem,



MJ
