    Lightbulb The FN FAL Battle Rifle

    FN FAL Self-Loading Rifle chambered for .308 / 7.62mm.

    Weapon Review:



    DSA Fully forged upper receiver, picatinny rail
    Chinese imported scope x6 w/illuminated reticule

    This weapon is made in Austria, exported to the USA and is the carbine variant of the FN FAL. Being made in Austria meant that a very ergonomic set of bipod legs were incorporated into the forestock. These give the effect of being integrated, however they are removable.

    This is a DSA built weapon of high-quality, compared with a Century Arms 'FrankenFAL' construction. The Century Arms variants are less well regarded, imperial and metric conversions and mix and matching of parts does cause teething issues.

    Back in the 1990s these were at sub $1000 prices. Nowadays (2014) you're looking at $2000 for a DSA FN FAL Battle Rifle.



    Pros / Pluses to the FN FAL

    .308 / 7.62 x 51 NATO is a Hard-hitting round.
    Very accurate.
    Authentic piece of European Culture / Right Arm of the Free World
    Advanced features like integrated bipod (some models only) and gas-port selection.
    Ergonomic.
    Easy to field-strip.
    It's a Black Rifle.

    Cons/Drawbacks to the FN FAL

    Long and a bit awkward for patrolling and shouldering (unless well used to it). Ideally a bug-in rifle, not a bug-out rifle.
    More difficult for modern-day soldiers to get to grips with unless heavily trained on it.
    No Forward Assist (Not essential in most theaters).
    Difficult to mount a scope (Unless you've got a DSA variant / Good gunsmith access)

    It's pretty nice, trigger's a bit goopy though (like with all bullpubs).

    on the one hand I want to learn more about UK laws in case I end up knocking up a bitch when I'm over there with my cousins.
    on the other hand that's gay as fuck.
    here we're allowed semi auto ones, and dealers with the right license are allowed up to one select fire of any design.

    Is this weapon 100% Austrian? The name FN makes me think it has a Belgian origin (FN Herstal).

    It's manufactured under license from FN in Austria. They then export them to the USA to companies like DSA or Century Arms (maybe, but I think their supplier is maybe ex military stock, mixed and matched).
    Without contacting DSA I can't tell you the latest suppliers of their FN FALs.
    The actual name of the Austrian-built FN FALs are StG 58s or Sturmgehwer 58 IIRC.

    I live part-time in the USA and agree with your second comment and know already of the third.
    The best things left in the UK are semi-auto shotguns (must be on an FAC for hi-cap ones)
    The AR-15 (carbine) lever release is about as much as you can get to semi-auto center-fire. This is semi-semi-auto. That is to say each time your fire the carbine you push a lever with your thumb after firing the bolt flies forward. My friend owns one and had to pay (brace yourself) over $2000 for one. They basically import an AR-15 and butcher it to be lever release. Here's an example on YT

    All others are pretty much bolt-action or straight-pull (semi-autos converted to bolt-action). However you can own semi-auto .22LR calibers though. No pistols, except Black Powder and LBRs.
