The SCAR-H is an assault rifle featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Call
of Duty Online, Call of Duty: Mobile, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
Campaign Remastered.
The SCAR-H is unlocked at level 8, and combined with its high damage and low recoil it is a popular weapon.
Its main drawback is its low magazine capacity. It also has a slower reload compared to the other Assault
Rifles, making Sleight of Hand or Extended Mags useful in mitigating the common reloads.
At close range, the SCAR-H will kill in three hits without Stopping Power, and two with the perk. At long
range it kills in four hits, or three with the perk selected. Stopping Power is useful due to the weapon's
slow rate of fire compared to most automatic weapons.
The SCAR-H also features what most consider very simple iron sights, which give a clear, uncluttered view,
meaning that sight attachments are not commonly used.
In Hardcore, the SCAR-H is a one-shot-kill at any range, unless shooting upon enemies using Painkiller, Last
or Final Stand, or at targets behind cover. This somewhat negates the need for extra ammo, making Sleight of
Hand a useful alternative as the SCAR-H has a fairly long reload time in comparison to other assault rifles.
It is also, due to its low recoil, useful with an ACOG Scope, as it has no sway, along with fully automatic
fire.
The SCAR-H does not work well with Reload Cancelling as the animation stops a very short period of time
after ammunition is added, making Sleight of Hand useful, although low ammo becomes a problem. Using both
Scavenger Pro along with Extended Magazines mitigate its low reserve ammunition and magazine capacity.
