SCAR series: H or L?

[mr_nuts31]

question about the scar h, can it fit g3 or m14 mags?

[R.A.T.M._JLD]

Nope.

Just SR25 style mags.

corrding to the website OneWorldAirsoft.ca... and the local surplus store that Ill be buying from ( heroarmysurplus.com ) the ARES version does fit M14 magazines.

Here's the thing. It's abundantly clear that this individual is 16. He seems to be about to buy a gun from Hero Army Surplus, which does not explicitly say 18+ on the site. Hero Surplus seems to be a OneWorld distributor.

If the ASC community/staff is cool with this than ok, just want to make sure everyone is clear on what's going on here.

What scotty said.

FYI yes i am 16 born in 1993, and suffer due to that late birthday, and yes I do wish to purchase this airsoft gun.... I understand that what i am doing is not perfectly legal, but please understand I do not mean to lead anyone on, and am truly interested in the sport, thats all.

Also Hero does only sell to 18+, but come on it doesn't take a brainiac to get around that, I mean if 14 year olds can get beer.

EDIT: Please don't start bashing me about my age because in reality, late next year I will be 18, and its not like I am one of the more immature people my age. Plus you all where my age at one time, and you just wanted to be accepted, and find people that shared the same interests as yourselves.

P.S. Rugger_can love the disclaimer in ur sig.

saying you're not immature makes you look more immature. We have younger guys on the boards who show more maturity by not advertising what they already own in their signatures, and by waiting patiently till they're 18 to own an airsoft gun.

Do what most everyone else did. Wait. Those who didn't got weeded out pretty quickly. especially when all they do is flaunt how they can circumvent the 18+ rule.

Hmm, i respect your opinion, then could we then let this topic continue as a topic for SCAR H/L lovers to use to discuss the guns.

Thank You

So the older guys are less mature for having their guns in-sig? haha, okay.

And back to the topic of SCARs. In my financial situation I would get an L simply for the practicality factor. It's a 5.56 NATO style gun and the mags are just much easier to get. Of course I prefer a 7.62 but when it comes to airsoft, it's just impractical.

Unless you're stupid rich. Then go for it.

It's really more a question of Under-18s saying, "OMG GAIZ LOOKY AT WAT I SMUGGLED OVER TEh BOARDR!!! I R TEH SHITZ PLZ ACCEPT ME AZ MEMBUR OF UR COMMUNITY", whereas the guns that AV'd people get are from the classifieds or in-country retailers.

I never did act like that. Now heres all I ask if u want to bash people bashed people based upon there age, don't do it in the GUNS DISCUSSION section, I mean nothing in that title says anything about bashing/trolling/flaming those who are not of age yet and have a genuine interest in the sport. Also I didn't say when I would be purchasing the gun, nor did I lead anyone on to believe that I am 18. (RANT OVER)

now please stay on topic.

Are 7.62 style mags really that uncommon?

They're attainable but a 5.56 is a better idea because everyone and their dog has a 5.56 type laying around. This means that the mags are more common than other variants. and in proxy more cost-efficient.

It's like buying a Kalashnikov-variant and wanting to modify it. It's doable but it's cheaper to modify an Armalite or a SCAR.

Plus tacticool AKs are ghey.

yes... not many people stock them because not many guns take them.. The difference between a scar heavy and scar light is really immaterial .. slightly larger magwell... visually from 20 feet ... pretty much indistinguishable from the SCAR L ..

the advantages of common cheap mags, common cheap mag pouches and compatibility with others far outweighs the "it's different" element particularly for a first gun ..
