FN SCAR 16S Barrel – 5.56, 10 inch

The FN SCAR 16S barrel (brand part no. 98802) is a factory FN America replacement barrel chambered in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO, measuring 10 inches for shooters building a shorter, more maneuverable SCAR 16S configuration. It ships with a flip-up front sight and a 25-inch overall package length that includes the barrel’s mounting hardware, weighing 3.0 lb shipped. FN America manufactures this as a genuine factory accessory barrel rather than an aftermarket clone, matched to the exact tolerances the SCAR platform’s quick-change barrel system depends on. SCAR 16S owners looking to configure a shorter-barrel build, or replacing a worn factory barrel, need this exact part number rather than a generic substitute.
