FN FNAR Competition 7.62x51mm 20" Non-Restricted

I bought 2, gave one to my eldest boy, have my best one setup with a S&B for my precision shooting, and am ordering another one for the wavy times to come, that is 3 right there.

Think a Stag or a BLC-2 is a sweet rifle, you ought to try one of those, they are just exceptionnal.
 
I agree. If I could afford it right now, I'd buy a second one in an instant. Hell, if there's still one for sale two months from now, I will.

Still can't decide on glass for the first one anyways, haha! Imo, this rifle was made to be fired offhand; and finding stellar, mid-range optics under a pound (and under 2 grand), has me spinning in circles. (accupoint tr20 might do?)
 
Had the standard version. Couldn’t get it to shoot consistently. It liked 168 gmm sometimes, but I could never get a good load developed for it. Ended up trading it away. I still don’t regret it.
 
I second what Caramel says. I have the FNAR heavy, the thing is an absolute laser beam. Insanely accurate. Even fellow shooters at my local range are blown away with its accuracy.
 
eh fellow fn shooters .....roughly how many shots till the rifle is broken in ...you figure.....so I traded my heavy fn for a blue one ...doing load development and still the wench doesn’t wanna group...I took a break from shooting and reloading ....I tried caramels..load with varget ......hmmm I hear the high pitch steel “ping noise when I shoot it”....it’s a warm load for sure ...up in the 2800 + fps range ...I used magneto speed ..
I don’t wanna destroy the fn but I’m very baffled by it
Any help
Thanks

why'd they discontinue this gun

It’s essentially a Browning BAR designed in the 60’s. it’s been discontinued for 4 years or so. This will more than likely be a batch of nos rifles. That’s what the last batch of fnar heavies were. When my fnar heavy wouldn’t group, I attempted to talk to fn. they basically told me that once they were imported, the warranty was unobtainable. It was never a line that was supported in Canada.
 
The trigger is pulled...!!! Now one needs to figure out which optic would go best on this... Something 1-6 power I'm thinking...

The FNAR deserve the best you can afford, they just are so much fun to shoot at 500 metres … and they still are MOA or best.
 
Is it possible to buy the FNAR heavy furniture form FN or browning and swap it? Then one would only need to get the receiver painted black... Also @North_Sylva what do you mean when you said these rifles are NOS rifles?
