Last Sunday I was doing some shooting with my Scout and when I was removing one of the loaded magazines from a GI 20 Round magazine holder, the floorplate came out and it, the spring and follower all sprang out with considerable force.
I was able to find everything and re-assemble it, but I was wondering just how commoon this problem might be.
I like the scout concept too. I see Ruger is offering 5 round mags and they have the gun in left hand too.
Savage has a model 10 FCM Scout that I would want to try before I bought this one. It doesn't have but a four round mag and a 20 inch barrel. The Savage has ghost ring sights and a barrel scope mount.
A reminton pump carbine with the right sights would make a good scout rifle platform too. That is basically what the model 7615 in .223 is and you can use AR mags in it.

I know that Ruger got it right.
