The Parabellum project
A Scar 16 9mm conversion
I would like to introduce you to the Parabellum project. This is what we are naming our 9mm SCAR 16 conversion.
The Scar 16 rifle is an excellent platform, but the lack of available calibers leaves a need for a conversion to other calibers. There are several good conversions for rifle calibers, however we have noticed no pistol caliber conversions available for what we feel is an ideal platform for one.
Why you ask? Well, 5.56 is a great round but it isn't always the right round for the situation. Sometimes you just want a pistol caliber. They are great for training or indoor use. They are very easily suppressed, and are ideal for SBR conversions. The ammo is very low cost. And really why not?
Well why 9mm? We know we could have done a .40 or .45 but we choose 9mm because it is just a great round.
Is it ready for the market yet? Well NO. Everything is designed and prototyped but we are trying to determine how many kits to build. The price? Well it will be less than a factory replacement barrel, but until we determine how many kits we will build, we wont set a price.
Keep an eye on our site for updates, we will be setting up a mailing list and may even offer a preorder.

What we wanted
We wanted a side-folder that kept with traditional style of FN rifles
What we found
There are plenty of stocks out there. The problem is making them fit!
What we made
We developed an adapter to fit a FN SCAR rifle with an ACE style hinge and Stock
About the adapter
It is a simple to install aluminum adapter, with a built in sling swivel mount. It uses a standard ACE style mount pattern to allow the use of numerous stocks and hinges
