What competition?
It's a fine inexpensive rifle for youth. It is designed for learning how to handle a rifle safely and for plinking at targets. It is not a hunting or competition rifle, but is designed for fun.
The US Army's M16 was considered a "light rifle" for jungle warfare in 1963. While troops used the M14 service rifle thru-out the world, only Vietnam used the "light rifle."
There is no one "Best" of any firearm- depends on what you want to do. I have some Mossberg target rifles from the 1940s that are incredibly accurate benchrest rifles- but they would make very poor hunting rifles due to the sights, the slow reloading, and the weight- almost twice what a light sporter weighs. My Winchester auto is a great little hunting rifle- light, fast, open sights- but would be a horrible rifle in a 50 meter competition.

Usually not but it depends on the country where you live.
SCAR means Special Operations Forces (SOF) Combat Assault Rifle. A SMG fires pistol caliber ammo, the SCAR Light fires 5.56mm rifle ammo.
3 gun is a competition where shooters use 3 types of weapons. Pistol, shotgun, and rifle.
If you are serious about air rifle .177 competition then there are several to choose from (See the link below) But I would select one of the Feinwerkbau P700 models.
It does stand for something. It stands for Fusil Automatique Léger which means ("light assault rifle") in french.
Enter shooting and hunting tournaments. Make sure that you have the correct license, ammunition and rifle or shotgun for the competition.
