“Barely kicks” ???You must be talking about your video game experience. I never shot a scar H irl but I have shot the mk14 which chambers the same caliber rounds and it definitely kicks.
@@Daviddontcare search up any video of scar h real shooting and shoot it yourself but its not like it has no recoil at all that's my mistake but compared to most games it feels like a 50 ae to say it has high recoil is a lie but to also say it has no kick is also a lie
The SCAR is almost always one of my favorite rifles in games where it pops up. BF4, Ama 3, etc. Still love it in Sandstorm. Didn't realise people hated it.
@@generationallyadjacent4283 the scar had some big drawbacks especially for the old US military doctrine. The bids for the 8mm NGSW seems to have solved some of these issues but in a larger calibre. If the new doctrine was introduced when the scar was being developed then the scar probably wpuld have won.
I've been using this gun for the last couple of days. And found that even in close quarters, it's amazing with single fire. As soon as I go full auto I miss and dump a mag. Resulting in death. Single fire permanently and you're unstoppable.
The sks and scar were not supposed to be each others counterpart. At the start of the beta, the fal was on advisor in the place of the sks. Originally the fal and scar were each others counterpart. They switched the fal for the sks, because of the G3 on security. Which from the community's perspective was a more logical counterpart to the fal. People were complaining that insurgent rifleman did not have a battle rifle like the G3.
The SCAR performs bad like an assault rifle but works great as a battle rifle, i found that super short bursts, and tap firing and using it like a DMR but at shorter ranges makes it Shine. If you wanna use it as an assault rifle its fine, but the low ammo, high recoil and low ROF will give you trouble a lot of timed.
*SCAR out performs the M4 in every aspect except it has more length and weight* US Military: This is great *Sees price* US Military: ...but we think the M4 will last us another 50 years....thx tho.
@@CoolSmoovie I feel like the reasons are too good this time. 5.56 is pretty outdated and our platforms are getting up there in age too. The upgrades provided in the NGSW program are just too great for me to think that the military will pass on another new service rifle.
I cannot thank you enough for this video. It convinced me to try it years ago ad I fell in love instantly. I never looked back hundreds of hours later.
Adapt and Overcome, you hit the nail in the head. MY fav weapon since first time in COD MW2. Thank you for covering, I might buy insurgency as I lost access to my tarkov account.
Sidearms for the most part are useless 4 shots to kill from the highest damage pistol cartridge makes it pretty useless just use a reload grip pistols are stupid unless they free points to spend
@@Shoot_to_chill I agree with you, however, I will also donk you in the dome with the .45 from 100m because this is a video game and i can. The only reason I bring a rifle at all is ammo capacity
Love the content! Keep up the amazing work! Could you do a gun guide on the Mosin Nagant? Absolutely love running that thing with iron sights and a suppressor
The gun doesn't have bad recoil its straight down use a 2x red dot and u can spray long range people and out snipe snipers also use extended mag the setup on it I use is 2x RD reload grip and whatever barrel attachment u want with a light carrier then whatever else u want
I love this weapon as a marksman weapon. Slap on a bipod and 4x optic and you can hit targets at a pretty good distance. Not ideal for close quarters, but a surprisingly forgiving marksman support weapon
Bro, I have been forgetting to like these videos, please forgive me (I do it all the time). Will make sure I do it more often, the style and detail is super underrated. Appreciate your effort.
@@tripaloskizigzag4816 i don't blame you. Especially when the SCAR is dirt cheap too. 2 points compared to 4 & 5 for the same caliber. Hard to pass quite the deal.
Goofball from Discord is an excellent example of gun ''experts'' on the internet. Alpha AK has various modifications that change it's performance, known and unknown ones. No one knows how tuned are the ''internals'' except FSB dudes. Great vid tho!
There's a Reason why this gun always ALWAYS depicted have Elcan Spectre ×6 Magnification Scope on it, Support Frontline Troops against any similar adversaries that would take them out of their range can't wait what you think about G3 or FAL
@@49mozzer ...wut? First off, .308 in a battle rifle isn't *bad* in the slightest, especially when regarding the scar 17. It's no 5.56 obviously, but it sure as hell isn't as bad as you make it out to be.. Next up, .308 is a *slightly* hotter, civilian version of 7.62 nato (actually, the scar 17 is chambered in .308 instead of 7.62 nato, but that's besides the point), so there won't be much of a noticeable increase in recoil when using .308 vs 7.62 nato.
@@49mozzer Anything in full auto can be a "bad idea", full auto is very situational to begin with, I'm not sure how that excuses you thinking there was a vast recoil difference between .308 and 7.62 nato though.
If you’re using this thing in full auto, you’re doing it wrong. Never seen a .308 rifle take more than two shots to drop a body. It’s a DMR with the ability to do some close up work. Great for holding an angle, don’t need to worry about switching to a pistol and spending the extra points to buy one to clear a building or defend a push like marksman has to. You can support your fraggers without worrying about getting too close and getting caught off guard like gunners do. But none of that is as important as how sexy it looks, if you don’t look cool then what’s the point?
Seeing him use auto on this gun kills me, it's actually really good as a semi auto in game u just two tap everyone, tar 7 is better now for cqb but scar is better at longer range, it's more of a dmr than ar in this game.
yeah but playing competitively is all about auto. I realize it's a 1-2 hit kill but using it on auto and wasting a bullet or two won't kill anyone but the bad guys. It's also a video game so why does it matter.
@@SickSnipes nah use it semi in competitive it's ttk Is just as fast and u can kill more without wasting time loading lol I was talking completely about the game, it's a better gun to use completely in semi.
@@robdieselgaming2805 The Ttk is even faster in auto, as well as other players are using auto meaning putting yours in semi is objectively worse in terms of ttk.
im a cs go ,cod and battlefield gamer looking for a new game with multiplayer woud that satisfy me im a big fun of the scar and shotted it in real life
While yes your right, depends on the SKS. AKs have 16 inch barrels, where as SKS rifles have both 20 inch and 16 inch barrels. Just from experience at the range, my 20 incher SKS seems to be a bit more accurate out to about 300 meters and farther then my friends AKMS and my other friends AK. But then again, most games use the 16 incher SKS and not the 20 incher
Try semi with a acog and recoil grip laser and muzzle brake its a one shot period and if u need a 30 round mag go ahead but having 20 rounds makes no difference to me it drops them in one shot
