The SCAR (abbreviation of either "Special forces Combat Assault Rifle" or "Special forces Combat Assault Rifle", the latter the SOCOM program name) is a family of self-loading, automatic, sniper, and assault rifles made by Fabrique Nationale (FN) for the U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM) to the requirements of the SCAR competition. The family of rifles consist of two main types, one (the SCAR-L, for light) chambered for the 5.56 mm NATO cartridge and the other (the SCAR-H, for heavy) for the 7.62 mm NATO cartridge. Both these main types are available in further variants such as sniper or CQC (Close Quarters Combat).

when i become the right age im buying several rifles and not because its cool but just because its extremely interesting to study these weapons, great video btw
I am getting my information from a former Ranger from the 75th Ranger Regiment. I'm pretty sure he knows his shit. Just like the Navy SEALS, the Rangers are indeed a Special Forces Group and are in fact used for Highly specialized missions and use specialized weapons such as the SCAR. And despite your ignorance of google's uses, it is a very valuable tool if you know what you are looking for.
Standard NATO rounds are the 5.56x 45mm (.223 Remington) cartridge for most assault rifles (M16, M4, SA-80, Steyr AUG, FAMAS, G36, etc, and the FN Minimi (M249 in US service)).
7.62x 51mm (.308 winchester) for General Purpose Machine Guns like the M240B (FN MAG-58) for example.
12.7x 99mm (.50 cal) for Heavy Machine Guns like the Browning M2HB.
These sized ammunitions are used by most modern and westernized armies, but Russia and China use their own calibers which are different again.
he just could have said 7.62 NATO and just so u now when he says 7.62 he means 7.62x51 not 7.62x39 witch is shot from the ak47 also the ak-74 shoots the 5.45 round and HAPPY XMAS EVERY ONE =] lol and this is my fav assault rifle ever
I dont know who you know that you think is a Ranger but they are not a Ranger. Like I told jobe66, Rangers are Special Forces. Use google for something other than a porn search and you will see that Rangers are in fact Special Forces. Part of the Special Operations Command group. USSOCOM. Check it out.
