SF SCAR-L and SCAR-H issue?

What's the lastest on this? I was reading on another forum that the FORCE MOD in another group was saying that the SCAR-L was going to be going away and very limited issue of the SCAR-H (2-4 per ODA). Any truth to this? Thank you.

Not what we are hearing.

It appears that SCAR-L and -H are coming to stay.

One of my buddies is the senior charlie on his team, he and everyone else has one (in addition to an M4 of course).

He uses the heavy variant with an Elcan Spectre...and btw, he loves it.

Limited production initial fielding. It's coming, everybody will eventually get it. Details are still being finalized. CDRs will be briefed this week at the CRC.

Do not attempt to use the SCAR-H as a sniper rifle. It didn't hold up for our guys at Benning. It is a battle rifle in 7.62 and is something that is sorely needed.
