SCAR-H - Modern Warfare 2 Multiplayer Weapon Guide

Facebook: http://facebook.com/AhoyYT Twitter: http://twitter.com/xboxahoy The SCAR-H is a fully automatic weapon, unlocked at level 8. The SCAR, or 'Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle' was developed by Belgian Fabrique Nationale de Herstale for the US Special Operations Command. Intended as a potential replacement for the M16 derived rifles currently in service, the SCAR first entered testing in 2007. The SCAR-H is not technically an assault rifle at all - as it fires a full-sized rifle cartridge it is more accurately described as a Battle Rifle. The SCAR-L is the assault rifle variant, firing the NATO 5.56 millimetre intermediate cartridge. The SCAR-H, however, fires the more powerful 7.62 by 51 millimetre NATO rifle round. The SCAR-H is one of three high powered assault rifles that do 40 damage at close range and 30 long range, the other two being the TAR-21 and the AK-47. The only assault rifle that does more damage than these three is the F-A-L. The SCAR-H, then, is a powerful weapon - and it's coupled with high accuracy, minimal recoil and good iron sights. The only real downside is the small magazines - just 20 rounds - and the limited supply, just 3 magazines unless you use Scavenger. The underslung grenade launcher and shotgun are available for the SCAR - suitable for a grenadier class or as a close-quarter backup with the Shotgun. The underslung weapons can be a useful counter to the lack of primary ammunition, although unfortuately the shotgun isn't particularly effective in Core. The iron sights are easy to use on the SCAR, but optics can be a good choice as they will improve your overall sight picture by allowing a clearer view on - and around - your target. Scavenger Pro is one thing that is essential with the SCAR, unless you have a secondary weapon you're happy to fall back on - even so, you'll burn through ammunition very quickly so the more you've got the better. Using Scavenger instead of Sleight of Han
