More Tango Down SCAR Upgrades

Tango Down had to more FN SCAR upgrades to show us.  The first is the "Angled Charging Handle".  This need for this is apparent when larger optics come into play.  By altering the angle of the Charging Handle, the user is able to get a more positive grip.

Next we were shown the  Aluminum Stock Latch.  The need for this product was explained to me by a friend in the teams who stated the polymer stock latch that comes on the SCAR is known for allowing the stock to fold at inopportune moments.

Both of these seem like pretty straight forward upgrades, and it makes you wonder why the system didn't come with them.
