    I have my SCAR17 set up with the 3.5x ACOG and reddot at 45 offset. Works really well.

  2. Freedom Family on March 10, 2023 at 2:20 am

    Lol fn different colors yep nice

  3. Kyle Carpenter on March 10, 2023 at 2:21 am

    Three tax returns in a row I have said no to the scar. Can’t justify an a2 grip with a mil spec trigger and polymer lower for 3800 dollar’s…

  4. MD on March 10, 2023 at 2:22 am

    I’ve looked at, and through Trijicon ACOGs before, and do not understand why the reticle etchings are sooo small.

    Not useful to me, and an Aimpoint T2 will do fine to 300-yards.

    1/3rd co-witness on a LEAP from Scalarworks.

    Just don’t get those tiny reticles…

  5. Aaron Hamilton on March 10, 2023 at 2:27 am

    Just put a 4x ACOG and RMR on my AR, love that combo. Had an Athlon 1-8×24 lpvo previously.

  6. TheLifeofRon on March 10, 2023 at 2:28 am

    im running a 1X8 LPVO from Riton and a 45 degree mount with a vortex crossfire red dot on my Scar17s best of both worlds with easy transition’s.

  7. K on March 10, 2023 at 2:28 am

    Put a supressor on the ultimate scar just to stick it to fn 😄

  8. Jeffery Nunn on March 10, 2023 at 2:30 am

    Hey,, pretty cool she didn’t hit anything

  9. DeezBeanz on March 10, 2023 at 2:31 am

    Magpul ACR stock with the Vortex Razor 1-10 for the ultimate scar.

  10. BlackCellAgent on March 10, 2023 at 2:33 am

    My SCAR17 is topped with a 3.5x ACOG. Love the setup. The ACOG is bombproof so no worries about the SCAR17s punishment.

  11. keithav1 on March 10, 2023 at 2:34 am

    what I want to see swapped out for the give away? the gun. Make the give away a Tavor.

  12. Donut🍩 on March 10, 2023 at 2:34 am

    LPVO with the rmr seems the best options to me and BTW kaydi is so cool 😎

  13. 15wylee on March 10, 2023 at 2:35 am

    Love FN but I think the scar is overrated.

  14. LT JACKASS on March 10, 2023 at 2:35 am

    be interesting to see a setup at 100 yard range with the 7.62 and 5.56

  15. Slowmo on March 10, 2023 at 2:35 am

    4x on the LPVO would’ve worked a lot better. And an offset red dot.

  16. vEximated on March 10, 2023 at 2:37 am

    What the name of the LPVO?

  17. Cody Cash on March 10, 2023 at 2:38 am

    Fn different colors lol 😆

  18. Kleep Nasty on March 10, 2023 at 2:39 am

    I think you all just need to get better with Iron sights… hahaha

  19. cslx on March 10, 2023 at 2:39 am

    Man I really hope I win this giveaway!!

  20. BunkLite on March 10, 2023 at 2:39 am

    Clint and Tim, loving the videos, I’m definitely a (new) fan! Would love to see best Short (home defense) and Long (general purpose hunting) Optics .. on a Budget! Keep rockin’ it!

  21. Bill Beam on March 10, 2023 at 2:39 am

    Good video brother

  22. William L. Foster II on March 10, 2023 at 2:40 am

  23. phillip craddock on March 10, 2023 at 2:40 am

    How about some type of red dot for a battle rifle,

  24. Jason Hinds on March 10, 2023 at 2:43 am

    A 1×10 LVPO has all that magnification in between also. You don’t have to flip the focus but half way to see as well as the Trijicon. 👍🏻

  25. J.T.Patton on March 10, 2023 at 2:44 am

    The FN SCAR is just an AR10 piston driven knockoff.

  26. Master of None on March 10, 2023 at 2:46 am

    You should try with the Tragic on piggyback rolling it to your non dominant eye for the RMR. Maintaining cheekweld and good for NV.

  27. Kross8761 on March 10, 2023 at 2:48 am

    I don’t know if it’s any good yet (it’s brand friggin new at the time of this comment) but the atibal 1-12 lpvo seems like a pretty good option for a full power rifle cartridge in something like a SCAR or an AR10. It has the ability to go down to 1x for up close work, but the ability to reach out to 12x for long range shots that battle rifle cartridges are certainly capable of.

  28. FLEXINCLOUDS on March 10, 2023 at 2:50 am

    How about the SR25 for a battle rifle? The best one by far IMO

  29. Your Dad on March 10, 2023 at 2:51 am

    For the scar 17 my favorite set up is vortex razor 1×10 in reptilillia mount with an acro p2 on front ring at the 12 o’clock position allows you to shoot passive with nods as a bonus I do have the acog/rmr and an elcan/rmr set up on other 17’s nothing is perfect

  30. laxbro7ify on March 10, 2023 at 2:51 am

    "TACTICAL UGG BOOT" — 🤣🤣

  31. blitz knight on March 10, 2023 at 2:51 am

    You could also get a canted red dot sight for your closer range shots

  32. Mark Williams on March 10, 2023 at 2:53 am

    I’ve never used an ACOG but I did just purchase a P/A 3X micro prism and really like it. It would be interesting to see a comparison video between the ACOG and micro prism shooting at 100yd or less. Especially considering the huge cost difference.

  33. Skeptical Historian on March 10, 2023 at 2:53 am

    LPVO with canted irons or a red dot is probably ideal

  34. Peter Torres on March 10, 2023 at 2:53 am

    Acog all the way!!!!

  35. jpcs302 on March 10, 2023 at 2:56 am

    Lpvo with a RMR at the 45
    Thay would be what I’d want

  36. Dr.Doofenshmirtz on March 10, 2023 at 2:58 am

    The way i was introduced to the scar was Fortnite..😐

  37. AlfredJR2K (Wifeless) on March 10, 2023 at 2:58 am

    I would like to use Trijicon ACOG, EOTech XPS3 + Magnifier.

  38. Mirage on March 10, 2023 at 3:01 am

    at least it has a non-reciprocating charging handle

  39. G W on March 10, 2023 at 3:01 am

    that might be the first time in a video where the camera actually accurately captured how loud a gun is. those 3 shot deals rocked me through the screen. at least their brake works for noise amplification.

  40. Jacob Meyer on March 10, 2023 at 3:03 am

    is your American tactical alpha 15 on your website any good for that low of a price

  41. football beast on March 10, 2023 at 3:05 am

    6:35 I think you should keep this scar as it is curently just put in a super scar triger

  42. Dave Flash on March 10, 2023 at 3:07 am

    Hk 417 and scar17 nrch are my 2 dream guns

  43. Chuck Ferrell on March 10, 2023 at 3:08 am

    For starters, I myself don’t want to pack those heavy rifles around, not to mention the limited quantity of ammo you can pack with them. M4 in 5.56×45 if in a mobile infantry unit is by far the best setup. But like what was said below, if your in a stationary position say over watch or a similar role, then these 7.62’s are Fantastic. But if I’m humpin all day, that extra few pounds of rifle and ammo adds up to a ton! Just my opinion.

  44. Doug Crusan on March 10, 2023 at 3:11 am

    Man I am praying God blesses me with this gun. It is my dream gun and something I would cherish. Fingers 🤞 ✝️ please let me win.

  45. john eastridge on March 10, 2023 at 3:11 am

    *nice*

  46. Dorian Kellum on March 10, 2023 at 3:14 am

    A COG on that gun is perfect

  47. D C on March 10, 2023 at 3:14 am

    What scope mount and scope height are you using with your razor 1×10?

  48. Jason Neucere on March 10, 2023 at 3:17 am

    I agree with most comments. LPVO with red dot off to the side would be the right set up. Also I agree that going to level 10 on the LPVO was not what I would have done. Level 5 would have been a better choice for that distance. Even level 5 may have been too much.

  49. Aslan Bosnakoglu on March 10, 2023 at 3:17 am

    ak platform like saiga in 308 is better than fn scar or ar10.

  50. Bob Haehn on March 10, 2023 at 3:17 am

    LVPO 2nd FP but half magnification at that distance. Throw lever straight up.
