FYI PSA has scar17's in-stock, if you don't find camo.
Yeah, FN told me that... I told 'em it was a slick way to handle shit anodize jobs on black receivers but that nobody really asked for those. He agreed.
I wonder what their corporate office would think about their employees steeling or carelessly loosing a fully semi automatic assault weapon of war?
Or maybe the News?
Apparently not much at all. And trust me, I did everything I could to make it sound meaner than it was "Lady, this is a Special Operations Command Combat Assault Rifle, semi auto, large caliber, only a tactical nuke can create more carnage" or something along those lines. It sure felt cheesy so as long as she was a commie I'm sure it had significant impact.
UPDATE: So now that I've started the refund process, placed another order, that order turned over to FN and started another wait until June, everyone assumes it's gone, fedex calls saying they found it in Portland in a train car. Jesus pleezus... She did say that they try to complete delivery before issuing out a refund so there's that, at least it (isn't supposed to) go back to the shipper. We'll see.
All I want is my goddamn rifle. I paid for it, waited for it, bought mags for it and a 13"bbl (I know, I know, I have several SBR's, this was just gonna be the next one...) Was looking forward to at least getting the SN off it today so I could start the Form1. Sort of vested in this motherfucker already. You have no idea how hard it is to get your hands on one of these damn things. For $3k anyway. FN will NOT deal with the public AT ALL and apparently not many dealers can place orders either.
Going forward, all my orders for firearms and critical components will be done over the phone (or simultaneously online) because not getting a human to confirm the order is just not worth it. This rifle should have shipped Dec. 30 but I did what they asked and waited for them to send me the forms, stupidly thinking they'd actually still sell me the same rifle I paid for. Nope. I bought a place IN A line, not a place IN line... Last time I fall for that.
I'll also demand any carrier but fedex.
Oh, I did find a SCAR16 too... Of course the prices would arbitrarily drop a week after I got mine. I still got an okay deal though, civilian prices anyway and no taxes or fees. Not bad for a GB deal.
its definitely no SCAR getting lost but it is ridiculous how shipping companies lose stuff as if thats their job.
