The legendary FN SCAR 17S NRCH (Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle) brings battle-proven performance to a compact, civilian-legal platform.

A 16.25" chrome-lined steel barrel (black finish) and 20-round capacity give you compact handling without sacrificing terminal performance. Whether you’re mounting optics, lasers, or other mission-critical accessories on the full-length MIL-STD-1913 rail, the SCAR 17s NRCH is engineered for modern tactical versatility.
