So why is there a gas regulator for suppressed and instructions in the owners manual for said settings???

Buy a great bolt gun, scope, CAN , Atlas bipod and some Federal GMM.I have about 10 different ARs chambered in 5.56, 300bo, 308, and 6.5 Creedmoor. I've got them set up in rifle and pistol configurations for CQB, medium range, hunting, plinking, and long range. All of my bases are covered in the semi auto rifle department. I don't NEED another heavy .308 rifle. But, I WANT one, and I don't know why...
Many people think SCARs are ugly, but I think they are beautiful. I love the ACR style stock and oversized fore-end. I wish I could just buy an ACR style stock and put on an AR and a Stribog SP9A3...
If I buy a SCAR 17, it's not gonna get shot long range. I'll put a suppressor on it and set it up for HD. And, I'll shoot deer with it. But, my longest hunting shot is only about 50 yards... Why would anyone use a SCAR17 for HD and 50yd deer hunting? I already have several guns set up with optics and accessories that would do a better job at both those things... Why do HD with a long ass SCAR17 and suppressor when I could use my suppressed Stribog SP9A3, or suppressed MK23, or suppressed 300bo AR Pistol, or suppressed HK VP9T? I could have a different suppressed handgun in each hand! Or a different suppressed AR in each hand! (I know that's stupid and I wouldn't do that. But, I could.)
Why do I want to waste $3000+ on a SCAR17?
I have been looking at the PSA Jakl 308. I'd happily buy one of those and save $1k... But, there is no telling how long I will have to wait to get one (at least a year). And no one knows how much they will cost... And, the current generation of JAKLs in 5.56 are having lots of hiccups. Why would I wait a year to buy a new weapon which is guaranteed to have kinks that will need working out? Why not just spend the $3k and have a superior weapon in my hands right now?
SO, I'm asking y'all... Why do I want this thing?
If I don't get a Scar, what should I get instead?
I'm always open for a good deal! But will eventually try to trade an HK91 for a NRCH SCAR 17.Dang, I was just about to ask if you thought a SCAR 16 would help scratch those itches.
What you gonna do with a SCAR, but waste ammo, trying to prove how gungho you be?
18" barrel FAL with top cover rail for optics
I ordered all the parts (minus a stripped lower) to build a PSA JAKL in 300bo with a 8.5" barrel. It'll all arrive at my house in a few days and I'll get a tax stamp for an SBR before assembling. I also picked out a Keymo Flash hider in 5/8x24 for my Sandman S and a Geissele trigger. We'll see how it all turns out... Watch it not run right. Hahaha. It's probably going to need some tweaking...
This should be fun... Maybe after throwing this together, I won't want a SCAR17 so badly...

You’re seriously concerned that PSA isn’t going to ship your build kit, and it’s only one day after your ordered it?I got good news and bad news...
The GOOD NEWS:
- I got my Form 1 submitted today! Let's start the count down and see how long this one takes to get approval.
The BAD NEWS:
- PSA has only shipped my magazine... The Lower build kit and the upper have not shipped... And, the upper is showing as Out of Stock on their website. It was all in stock when I purchased it 2 days ago. Who knows how long it'll be before they get more 8.5" 300AAC uppers cerakoted in FDE and back in stock... So far, not a peep out of PSA. How long are they going to let it sit before they tell me they don't have an upper to ship me? And, why haven't they shipped the lower build kit? It shows as in stock, still.
If it wasn't for bad luck, I wouldn't have any luck at all...
My threads wouldn't be so much fun if I didn't inject at least a little drama... I'm like the reality tv show producer of CFF... I'm keeping things interesting!You’re seriously concerned that PSA isn’t going to ship your build kit, and it’s only one day after your ordered it?
Figured you would’ve ordered from them enough time to realize how varied their shipping times are.

What's their usual time line? It's been a year or two since I ordered anything from PSA.I don’t think I’d be concerned. Ordered a rifle a couple weeks ago. Bought it soon as I got the in stock notification. Let me check out then showed out of stock few mins later. Rifle still shipped in PSA’s usual timeline.
For me, it’s usually about 2 weeks. But I’m also on the West coast so takes longerWhat's their usual time line? It's been a year or two since I ordered anything from PSA.
A day, a couple days, a week…pick one. 🤣What's their usual time line? It's been a year or two since I ordered anything from PSA.
Unless it’s a warranty repair. 😢A day, a couple days, a week…pick one. 🤣
Wait until you have a warranty issue. 🤬I know I'm being irrational... Just venting...
I ordered on Monday, May 6th. It's all supposed to come straight to me. No ffl needed.
Yes, it's only been 4 business days, but dang... How hard is it to put a box into another box, put some tape and a label on it, and put it in the pile for fedex to pick up?
PSA haven't even printed a shipping label. They've got my money. I know the parts are in stock... WTH?
I went to the PSA FAQ website. They say they have up to 15 business days to ship things.
WHY WOULD IT EVER TAKE THREE WEEKS TO PUT A BOX IN A BOX AND PUT A SHIPPING LABEL ON IT?

Sounds like you've been spoiled by Amazon.
Now, all that’s left to do is drive around and try to find where they delivered it. 😂It's out for delivery!
It's out for delivery with UPS. They are good for me.Now, all that’s left to do is drive around and try to find where they delivered it. 😂
What’s your address again? 😂It's finally been delivered, but I'm not there to get it off the porch.
Either that or Homer Simpson's mouth, vertical instead of horizontal...Um… what’s in that picture?
Is that a female UPS driver?
