Can I request the original 16.25" barrel?
The original barrel is removed during the conversion process and is available separately. It is not included with the SBR.
Can I use a suppressor with the SCAR 17S SBR?
Yes, but proper configuration is critical. Suppressing a SCAR without adjusting the gas system can cause immediate and severe damage. We strongly recommend using the Imperial Arms Buffered Bolt Carrier (BBC) and a KNS Discarder adjustable gas regulator to safely manage excess gas pressure.

No. This configuration includes the standard FN stock and trigger. Upgraded stocks, triggers, and accessories are available separately for those who want to enhance the platform.

Yes. The SBR conversion voids the original FN warranty. Armory of Kings does not offer a warranty on the rifle but does ensure proper function of the installed barrel configuration.
