🇧🇪/🇺🇸 FN SCAR-H (7.62×51 mm NATO, service: 2010, ~Effective range: 600–800 m) – The modular battle rifle / light support weapon developed by FN Herstal for US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). Gas-operated with a short-stroke piston and rotating bolt, it feeds from 20-round box magazines (compatible with SR-25/M110 mags), fires at ~600–650 rpm in full-auto, and weighs ~3.6–4 kg depending on barrel length (13", 16" or 20"). Famous for its quick-change barrels, monolithic upper rail, fully ambidextrous controls, and extreme adaptability (SCAR-H PR, DMR, or CQC configurations), it remains one of the most versatile and reliable 7.62 NATO platforms in service with elite units worldwide — from Navy SEALs and Army Rangers to French RAID and Polish GROM.

🇩🇪 FG 42 (7.92×57 mm Mauser, service: 1943–1945, ~Effective range: ~600–800 m) – The revolutionary Fallschirmjägergewehr 42, designed by Louis Stange at Rheinmetall for German paratroopers. One of the first true “Sturmgewehr”-concept weapons, it combined rifle precision with full-auto fire using a gas-operated long-stroke piston and closed-bolt delayed blowback system. Fed from 10 or 20-round side-mounted box magazines, it fired at ~900 rpm (early models) or ~600 rpm (Ausf. G late model), weighed only ~4.5 kg with bipod, and featured an inline stock, quick-change barrel, integrated ZF-4 scope mount, and even a bayonet lug. Despite limited production (~7,000 units) due to late-war resource shortages, the ultra-light, high-velocity FG 42 heavily influenced post-war designs (M60, FN FAL, SIG SG 510, and even the M16’s straight-line recoil concept) and remains a legendary milestone in small-arms history.
