"People say this gun doesn't have aftermarket support when MLEmart exists for this gun
by Gunnar K. on 06/02/2023
"The most reliable and fun fun I have ever purchased. Everything about it is perfect or near perfect, A lot of my friends have fallen in love with my rifle and always ask to use it for the next round and it shoots like a dream, if you are contemplating getting this gun or are a gun nut like I am, this is a must buy, everything down to the takedown is almost exactly like the real SCAR.

PROS:
-Gas efficiency, this thing can go through about 2 mag fills worth of ammo before a refill
-Accuracy, once you get it sighted in and the hop up adjusted, this thing is a laser for about 100ish meters
-Feel, the recoil and manipulation of the rifle is incredible and will help intensify a gunfight
There’s a bunch of other little details like the trademarks and the modularity too that make this rifle that much more better
CONS:
-Mags are usually out of stock
-You don’t have it
-Lack of parts to buy, though once mine breaks, I’ll just get another one it’s that good, but if you want to be able to repair your gun if it breaks, you should buy the WE Tech one, it’s just as good and has lots of aftermarket parts

"Absolutely fantastic platform. The only major issue I've had is the stock likes to fold in on me during use. However, it was erasing people out the box. This gun hits hard, kicks great, and already I've had people tell me that when they hear it - they get scared. It's a monster, a big beautiful monster that tells the field who's gonna be responsible for welts in the morning!

Use heavier BBs, it expels a lot of gas. Using lighter BBs will sway off target or shatter them - so keep that in mind. This Scar obliterates people, so it will likely be classified as a DMR - not an AR. Keep that in mind. If you do get a chance to fire full auto - well - it's an experience to savor.

As of this review, it is very difficult to find spare mags for this platform. They are out of stock in multiple stores, except some shadier ones. You can, however, use SR28 mags. They are identical - and work just as well as the magazine it comes with.

"This thing is awesome.

10/10 fit and finish.

Shoots lasers with .36g bbs, hard kick and a strong recoil spring for out of the box.

Dosnt come with replacement metal flash hider like some soft air guns do. Just FYI

Careful of reciprocating changing handle, it hurts.

Decent over seas upgrade support if you dont mind premium shipping.

"I have both the vfc and we tech scar. I personally like the vfc one better. The hop-up is super easy to adjust. It feels good and looks better. The one downside is that when I disassembled the rifle to swap the charging handle to the left the lower and upper took a little convincing to go back together, it could just be my gun. It does have a npas built into the nozzle which means you can adjust your FPS. On the other hand the we tech one is about 150 bucks. The mags are also cheaper than the we tech ones which is also a bonus. Overall a good gbbr. Pro tip if you put the charging handle on the left side instead of the right you reduce your chances of hitting your thumb.

"I have had mine (black version) for almost 2 years now. I haven’t used it in game yet, but just target practice. It kicks very hard and sounds great. The only downside to me is the cost of the mags. And the fact it jumped like 60$. I would recommend to anyone who wants a realistic feeling airsoft gun!

"Has the BEST sound shoots hot out of the box
by Zane A. on 09/19/2021
"Just used this gun in a big event that is probably some of the roughest terrain you can find, and this was the perfect gun for the job. Long range was the name of the game and running .32s with the properly set hop-up made this thing shoot lasers up to about 200ft or more. With .32s the Chrono said I was shooting about 420-450. As the event went on I found myself trusting the gun more as I learned the range potential this gun has, don't let the short barrel fool you. I would have used .25s or .28s, but even with the hop up turned down they would still curve up, so .32 seemed to be the magic number. The shorter barrel made for a more comfortable weight than what I feel a longer barreled version would. I ran a simple red dot with no zoom and was hitting my mark nearly every time. Now that I've jumped back and forth a little I'll give some pros and cons:

Pros:

High accuracy

Long range

Rugged and easy to strip and clean (I recommend cleaning and lubricating as often as possible, I cannot stress how important it is to lube this gun)

Realism 10/10 besides the mags being 30 rounds instead of real steel 20

Likes propane about as much or better than green gas, just be sure to lubricate and oil the mag every now and then

Even though it lacks in ammo, its performance almost outweighs that

Ambidextrous charging handle can be moved to left or right side of gun as well as ambidextrous select fire switch

Has a reciprocating handle with the open bolt system and has a very satisfying sound when firing and may scare players near you

CONS

Has a reciprocating handle, I only got my thumb twice on it while firing and it HURTS

Mags are only 30 rounds, but makes playing a little more of a challenge ( I enjoyed loading fresh mags and slapping that handle tbh)

Needs lots of maintenance because there's lots of moving parts that need a good amount of lubricant between them or you'll have lots of metal on metal contact and lots of metal shavings ( some are normal due to the gun breaking in)

Conclusion:

This gun turned a lot of heads on the field once they heard it fire. In almost all areas other than rate of fire, this gun can just about keep up with guns running hpa and high dollar guns, usually after a big game I have the feeling to upgrade some parts but I genuinely want to leave it the way it is. Btw switching this gun to hpa sounds like too much of a hassle because due to the fill valve being concealed by the mag well, you'd have to plug it, and then re-drill the mag in an accessable place for a hpa hook up, and then comes the difficulty of reloading by detaching the mag from the gun and hpa. But I'm no expert and you guys always seem to find a way so have at it lol

"Ran around 200 rounds through it, forgot a screw driver so hop up unit was unoptimized, but overall great replica, Chambers and bolt catch and all that stuff, can select to have the gun lock open when the magazine goes dry or have it keep going on the remaining gas if you want to waste some of the gas in the mag when it goes empty. Recoil will make it very uncomfortable in your shoulder after running it for a couple hours but to be expected. Mags didn't have any issues, but then again they cost 50 bucks each. Metal upper receiver plastic lower and stock metal internals come prelubed. For 350 dollars it's really good and looks exactly like a scar 17
by Manuel C. on 08/31/2021
"This MK17 / Scar H is great worth the price the rate of fire is very good and the upper receiver is metal and the lower reciever is polymer only bad thing that I hate is in the mag which is the mag fill valve the external fill valve o ring they put is bad and will make the gas spit out when filling the mag with the gas but its easy fix I have a bunch of better external fill valve o ring
by James F. on 08/17/2021
"gun works well, shoots 430 with .28g bbs, really fun to use on open outdoor fields. impressive range might go up in weight for the bbs
by Caleb S. on 12/24/2019
"This MK17 is a great gun overall with both pros and cons. I would recommend when disassembling as well as assembling to use a cloth when tapping out pins from the gun to remove the upper receiver which will prevent scratches on pins over time. The gun is quite stiff out of the box but will wear into comfort over time. When in use, I would recommend keeping your fingers free from the reciprocating bolt. I definitely would prefer this MK17 to the WE MK17.
Pros:
-Exact replica.
-Accurate.
-Magazines are solid and fit in the gun sturdily and tight, but will slide in smoother over time.
-Heavy kick.
-Solid build overall. The exterior can handle some wear and abuse, but I would recommend avoiding extreme situations.
-Efficient magazines. I can get 45+ shots out from one mag when filled properly. Some magazines may be more or less efficient, however.
-Solid rails.
-Hop-up is easy to use and could be adjusted without any tools.
-Ambidextrous for the most part.
-Good fire rate.
-Magazines do not leak even after long use.
Cons:
-The hop-up unit. It does not click distinctly as I would prefer. It is also located on the exterior of the gun which to my preference should be inside. This is my opinion.
-The magazine becomes a bit prone to user error when used over time.
-The magpul on the magazines slides off easier than I would like which is my opinion.
-No foregrip included in the picture.
-Barrel length is a bit small in my opinion, but it can be fixed with a flash hider.
-The front iron sight was astonishingly stiff out of the box. Over time it did wear to my preference.
-When assembling after cleaning, the upper receiver was very stiff and requires quite a bit of force to place back with the lower receiver.
Overall a solid MK17. Although not as accurate as my AEGs, it has potential. I would not recommend this to small individuals, but otherwise a great airsoft gun.

"Disclaimer: I have been accused of being both a FNH fanboi and SCARaholic...

This is most realistic gas blowback version of the SCAR! Externally, this is the most accurate to real SCAR's (aside from the photos I've seen of TM's Recoil Shock AEG's). The trigger is even as meh as the real deal's OEM trigger! When you look at the fire control group in the lower receiver, that is pretty much what the real SCAR looks like!

Recoil is comparable to most semi-auto .22lr rifles I've shot. I only have 30' indoors to test airsoft guns right now and no chrono. At that distance, majority of .28 Elite Force bio bb's were in a 4" group. I was able to shoot 70ish bb's on a single Green Gas charge, mix of semi and full-auto shooting. I shot about 200 bb's total.

Pros:
- 99.9% accurate replica of SCAR-H/MK17 compared to other GBB's
- External build quality is solid. With exception of gas adjuster torx tool, if something feels loose/rattles on this, it does on the real thing too
- The selector detents are nice and crisp, wish more airsoft guns had safeties/selectors like this!
- Hop Up adjuster is in a super convenient location, although I may see if it can be swapped for Allen head set screw.

Cons/Minor gripes:
- Gas adjuster torx tool detents are super weak and the tool is very loose in gas block (shimmed with little electrical tape) seems to be common issue among SCAR airsoft replicas though
- Button to collapse/extend the stock is ridiculously stiff, real SCAR requires minimal effort to adjust
- Front takedown pin is super tight, I'm hoping this loosens up and I don't need to use hammer and punch on it all the time
- Nobody makes an orange AAC M.I.T.E.R 51T flash hider/tuning fork!?!? lol

"By far the best gbbr on the market. Shoots dead on and kicks pretty good. Out of my experience this is THE only gbbr that you can buy that will do a mag dump straight outa the box. Great gun, great gas efficiency. It is expensive, but well worth it.

P.S. next to the real deal, you can't tell them apart.
by Christopher M. on 08/12/2017
"Kicks nice , shoots pretty straight once you wear in the hopup and tune it . Best externals on the market , and the gun overall is just built outstandingly . No typical vfc bolt bounce or any other major issues . Haven't had any problems . Magazine is built like a tank also. Very happy with this gun and it seems vfc has figured it out with the internals finally. Flawless so far.
