I may have used the wrong description but they make it. Its the ones shown with pmags in them. The standard AR10 pattern mag is steel.

All of these take .308 Plans which are DPMS/SR25 pattern mags.

The AR-10 mags are similar to, but not compatible with, the M1A. Armalite earned some hate from M1A owners when they were mass-converting M1A pre-ban mags to the AR-10 spec during the federal AWB. It used to be US GI M1A mags were stupid cheap, but Armalite put an end to that.

It would be interesting to see someone do a PTR-91 build that used SR-25 mags, much like we've seen HK93 builds that used AR mags.

I'm looking into the scar 17.

Is it really worth the cost?

I'm trying to decide between getting a suppressed MPX or a scar17. Not really in the same category, but it's just for the fun factor.

I can sell you a black 17 with a .308 Trijicon TA11 with a green Chevron.

About 500 rds through.

If intrested, PM me.

I'm limited on funds this month. That package ( with optics) may just be a bit out of reach at this time . Ive only set aside 2800 for now.

Wow that's a tough decision. There both great guns !!! I will say out of all of the .308 rifles I own the scar is my favorite. Galil comes in 2nd. And I love the MPX. I just ordered the MPX carbine. To me they are close in quality of the HK 94s.

I don't see the happy notch on the lower lol. Must be in the safe. Like I said love my MPX. Saw a MPX K version that someone came up with. It looks sweet :-) I saw a video of a guy with a tac con trigger assy in 1. Ran very nice !

SCARCQB · Dec 24, 2015

I had to switch out the lower to a semi. a msar won't allow machine guns.

Bummer.

OrbitalEllipses · Dec 25, 2015

You have an MP5? With an autosear? Yeah, an MPX would be a waste. Get the SCAR.

I pulled the trigger on a scar17. My last gun purchase for 2015.

Waiting for my ffl to call.

Boss94 · Dec 29, 2015

How's the stock trigger on those?

brianns · Dec 29, 2015

SCAR17S is a good choice. I got mine for well under MSRP so It was worth it. If north of 3k maybe not unless you really just have to have it. But for >mid 2k probably worth it when you add up all the standard features it has.

Trigger is heavy and not too smooth. At least 500 rnds in.

All in all though its solid feeling for a plastic frame, etc. But baby the folding stock catch.

The FDE ones are more accurate. (Not sure if anyone covered that yet)
