The KNS Precision, Inc. DiSCARder is an adjustable gas regulator built to fix the over-gassing that plagues FN Scar rifles, especially when a suppressor is hung on the muzzle. It drops into all FN Scar models, calibers, and barrel lengths with one exception, the Scar 15P. Shooters who run cans, mix ammunition types, or simply want a slower, softer-cycling rifle are the target here. By dialing the gas down, the DiSCARder reduces bolt carrier speed, cuts felt recoil, and tames muzzle rise, which translates to faster follow-up shots and less wear on the action over a long range day.
Construction is steel finished with nitride and nickel boron, a combination chosen for hardness and corrosion resistance in a part that lives in the hot gas path. There are no internal moving parts to gum up or fail, and adjustment is fully toolless, with a tactile detent and laser-marked positions so a shooter can count clicks by feel. The regulator offers a wide span of unique settings to fine-tune flow for a given load or suppressor. KNS ships three additional gas jet inserts measuring 1.5mm, 2mm, and 2.5mm along with an installation tool, so the gas curve can be matched to subsonic, supersonic, or suppressed fire without swapping the whole assembly. This is one of the more thoughtfully built items in our adjustable gas block category.
Set it once for an unsuppressed rifle and a second time for a can, then switch between the two by hand at the range or in the field. The laser markings make repeatable settings easy, and the corrosion-resistant finish holds up to repeated cleaning. It pairs naturally with a quality bolt carrier group and the rest of the small parts that keep a Scar running.

It fits all FN Scar models, calibers, and barrel lengths according to the manufacturer, with one exception, the Scar 15P. That covers the common 16-series and 17-series rifles, so most Scar owners can install it directly without modification.
No. Both installation and adjustment are toolless. A tactile detent with laser-marked positions lets you count settings by feel and return to a known position, which makes switching between suppressed and unsuppressed fire quick and repeatable.
A suppressor raises back pressure and over-gasses the rifle, speeding up the bolt carrier and increasing recoil and gas to the face. The DiSCARder lets you reduce gas flow so the action cycles correctly with a can attached, smoothing recoil and lowering muzzle rise.
The regulator ships with three additional gas jet inserts measuring 1.5mm, 2mm, and 2.5mm, plus an installation tool. The extra jets let you match the gas curve to subsonic, supersonic, or suppressed loads without replacing the whole unit.
It is steel with a nitride and nickel boron finish. That combination is built for hardness and corrosion resistance, which matters in a part that sits directly in the rifle's hot gas path and gets cleaned often.
