T
he 5.56 FN Herstal SCAR-L was designed
around eight years earlier before the MSBS
and from the outside, Polish rifle might be
somehow similar to the Belgian weapon. The pur-
pose of this article is to proof or deny this state-
ment.
FRAG OUT! MAGAZINE was able to compare 1:1
commercial versions of both FN SCAR-L (sold as
SCAR 16S) and FB Radom MSBS (the rifle is sold
as GROT S16 FB-M1, because Polish military ad-
opted the rifle as GROT C16 FB-M1. In this article
we are going to used MSBS name as it is more
common outside of Poland). Government, se-
lect-fire variants are slightly different, but those
differences does not have any impact on overall
design or layout.
