The Fightlite SCR-16 delivers AR-15 performance in a traditional sporting rifle configuration, bypassing restrictive legislation while maintaining full modularity. This 5.56 NATO rifle combines familiar AR-15 controls and compatibility with a conventional stock design that satisfies compliance requirements in restricted jurisdictions.
What Makes This Different
The SCR platform uses a proprietary bolt carrier system that redirects the operating mechanism into a traditional stock configuration. This design eliminates the pistol grip and collapsible stock features that trigger restrictions in certain states, while preserving the reliability and modularity of the AR-15 system. The rifle accepts standard AR-15 magazines, triggers, and most accessories.
