Nope... The 107 traded. But I already had a 101 which is currently my primary rifle.
I picked up the 107 to have a lighter AK rifle with a folding stock. I just figured it might come in handy. I still preffered my 101 so it won't be missed.
I realized the M1A and 107 together didn't equal up to SCAR when it came to the function and features I wanted. They did equal up to a SCAR far as my investment in them so I cashed out and got the SCAR.

Nice. My wife and I took a few guns to the range last week. She loved the 65. ![[Linked Image from i1091.photobucket.com]](http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i393/amflud/IMAG0355_zps4hd6sjb9.jpg)

She had sworn off revolvers for several years after I let her fire off a few full house loads out of my 29. It's nice to have her back shooting revolvers.

Congrats. Outside of being EXCEEDINGLY loud (due to the PWS brake) I think the Scar-17 is about the best rifle available.

How does duracoat compare to cerakote? ...the concensus seems to be that, for hard use, druacote is not in close to the same class as cerakote. We have a full cerakote booth and oven at work and so far have been very very impressed with it. I soot air cured cerakote at home and have found it to be great and durable as well. spidy... NICE M65 !!!!!! what "dash" number is it ?

Congrats. Outside of being EXCEEDINGLY loud (due to the PWS brake) I think the Scar-17 is about the best rifle available.
I have being reading about it. I learned a lesson about the concussive effects of a muzzle break while shooting my scout from a mdf shooting house once. I'm guessing the SCAR is worst than that so I'm keeping in mind I may have to find a different break. But I've read the PWS does s good job so I'm hoping it will be okay.
