The RA XCR-L is comparable to the SCAR 16S.

I rather take a SCAR 17S over a RA XCR-M because there are more available parts, it is lighter weight, and the big one, it is a battle proven rifle. When I eventually get mine I'll be doing the Handl Defense SCAR25 lower conversion. This will allow me to use SR-25/M110 pattern magazines.

Yep same lower for me . The only thing stopping me is that price tag. Thats a bit on the steep side (especially after buying a Kimber CDP II)

No kidding! The cost of a SCAR 17S plus the SCAR25 lower...
Might get the MOD 2 version because I want to keep my SCAR as light as possible. Also a magnesium lower is just plain cool but it might not be worth the price. Still thinking about it.

Now you can find the standard aluminum ones at some very discounted prices. Just have to look for them. Gunbroker is a good place to look and I think Rainier Arms has a good deal too.

FYI there is a GEN II version of the SCAR25 lower. However only X Products is selling it. It is a joint venture between Handle Defense and X products. The new design is more compatible with X Products 50 round drum mags and improves reliability of X Product drum mags with the SCAR 17S.
