Reading some of this is pretty funny. Any AK variant is, hate to say it, junk. The way they are designed regardless of the tolerances used (Usually sloppy) means it will always be an inaccurate rifle. In fact no gas piston rifle like the SCAR will ever have the potential accuracy of an AR type Rifle. The much vaunted M1A does not have the accuracy of the AR including it's offspring the M14. That's just the reality of rifles.

If you need to cheaply arm a bunch of clueless commie peasants who couldn't effectively clean a rifle even if they had the inclination then the AK is the way to go.

If you have infinite tax dollars provided by the American people, are a professional bureaucrat who thinks the Stoner design isn't sexy enough to get funding, then the SCAR is for you.

If you think that a national match springfield armory m1a or a socom m14 is the most accurate dependable rifle since the dawn of time despite ARs consistently beating them in all major competitions then buy all means buy one.

I'm a gun guy and given infinite amounts of money I would own multiple variations of all rifles mentioned, but since I'm on a budget I'm just going to have to stick with an AR. Sure the .223/5.56 is little better then a varmint round but guess what it can be chambered in .308 too if one had some sort of fetish for this particular round. Personally I would have to go with 6.5 Grendel.

Americans are a nation of riflemen and it's sad to see so many people jump all over weapons with sadly inferior accuracy.
