Formerly the ARES SCR and now the Fightlite SCR, this rifle is an AR-15 system modified to work with a FAL or Remington 1100 type mainspring housed in the butt. Without the muzzle thread it's 50-state legal in the US, and looks like... well any semiauto hunting rifle in this configuration. It'll accept any AR-15 upper, but requires use of a special bolt carrier since there's no buffer tube and it needs to use a rat's tail to cooperate with the mainspring.
Scope is a Primary Arms SLx1 micro prism.
