Available in two variants, the Scorpion Carbine is a whole new animal. Building on the lauded submachine gun platform that first hit the US civilian market in pistol form in 2015, the Carbine has a 16.2″ barrel fitted with either a compensating muzzle brake or a faux suppressor.

Fit with the factory’s folding adjustable stock, the Carbine features a number of US-made parts to make it fully 922(r) compliant. One of the nicest features of the firearm is the newly-designed forend, covered in M-LOK attachment points to keep the profile slim while still being big enough to swallow most pistol-caliber suppressors should the owner decide down the road to convert it into an SBR for use with a suppressor.

A top Picatinny rail fits with iron sights and allows the mounting of many optics. Simple and reliable, the Scorpion not only has ambidextrous controls, but its non-reciprocating charging handle is also swappable, and the reach to the trigger is adjustable.

With a wealth of accessories and attachments available for the Scorpion platform, customization can quickly be done with a number of stocks, grips, forends, magazines, safeties, mag releases, charging handles, and triggers explicitly designed for the EVO 3 platform.
