I’ve been eyeballing it for MANY years and almost ordered it a couple of years ago. The ONLY reason I didn’t is I don’t like the proportion of the barrel to the rail. To me a 20” barrel needs at least a 15” rail. Seekins Precision offers a 15” on their own rifle but wouldn’t sell it separately. And while their rifle is good it doesn’t compare to the build quality of a GAP rifle. So if SP had sold me the longer rail or GAP would have been willing to order me the longer rail I would have one.I'm liking that. A lot.
Definitely been considering the SCAR 20. It's been mentioned that it isn't very left hand friendly. I've never even held a SCAR other than a 16, so I don't know if the a20 is more ambi friendly. Also with the way they are price right now I'd definitely have to stretch the budget. So many options out there. I just wish I could go somewhere and handle them all before dropping the cash.If you have the cash a SCAR17 or SCAR 20 is a freaking nice factory rifle. I love my 17 and wouldn't consider anything but a 20 for it.

I know everyone is backed up, but that 4 month lead time is going to kill it for me. I want to see it before I buy it. Maybe I'll get lucky and find one a shelf when I go shopping around this weekend.I’ve been eyeballing it for MANY years and almost ordered it a couple of years ago.

The SCAR doesn't fit left handers well.
24 weeks for them that comes with * as well. Damn fine rifles though.Top tier? There is none better than https://www.jprifles.com/ You deserve to watch you shots hit.
Go to the SAR West show this fall!Definitely been considering the SCAR 20. It's been mentioned that it isn't very left hand friendly.

Good things come in time. Allows you time to save up for optics. The last rifle you will need and the last one you will sell.24 weeks for them that comes with * as well. Damn fine rifles though.
That’s their normal wait time. I get wanting to see one first. I’ve never seen one either but I’ve been drooling over one for a long time. Maybe I need to check with SP and see if Incan get that longer rail.I know everyone is backed up, but that 4 month lead time is going to kill it for me. I want to see it before I buy it.

The latch for the folding stock isn't placed well for a left side cheek weld.How does it not fit?
I have a SCAR-H and it pretty much a fully ambi-dexterous gun. Almost as if it was designed with lefties in mind.
Find a big gun show. You may not see them all there but should find some of the rifles you're looking for.I know everyone is backed up, but that 4 month lead time is going to kill it for me.

I was just thinking that last night. Probably will be my best bet.Find a big gun show. You may not see them all there but should find some of the rifles you're looking for.

I read that it was an issue in extended shooting sessions.
I shoot lefty and used a buddy's at the range and remember feeling it on my cheek for the few shots I fired.
Can't say if it would be a long term issue though but worth checking out for that kind of money.
Though I own an AR 308, it is not premium, and it is a big heavy rifle...
If I had your money, I might buy a Desert Tech MDRX and add a 5.56 conversion.
Agreed.Top tier? There is none better than https://www.jprifles.com/ You deserve to watch you shots hit.
