It didn't have any markings on the receiver except some small lightly etched writing under the ejection port that said FG002. It was a metric and I don't know much about metrics but it had a straight comb stock , metal handguards, and a stoll FH that didn't have the slots cut all the way through.

Annoying as FUCK. I'm still waiting to get approved for FAL files. 3 months and nothing. The worst thing is that I was #68 on it but lost my password and dont have my old email.

Right on with the square corners. Aircraft don't have square corners for that very reason. I believe it was studied that one of the reasons the original flash hider banana peeled was simply because of harmonics and, the combination of the sharply machined points of the finish lines of the vent like Def90 mentioned.

The Imbels are seen as a plus in value to the gun whereas the Century made receivers significantly hurt the value. As to markings, Imbel is Imbel and the markings on them don't change the value unless you're bringing the gear logo receivers into the conversation. Gear logos wouldn't be on those L1A1 builds anyway. #2.

The intermediate caliber, the select-fire rifle that the USSR came up with was the AK of course, but what is often forgotten is that the FN FAL began its life the same way. The first FAL prototype produced in 1946 was chambered in 8mm Kurz, the same round used in the StG 44 that would go on to be known as the father of all intermediate cartridges.Their parts are the best, most durable, and longest lasting.

It looks like you have a genuine Belgium-made, FN Herstal (Belgium) FAL. That's a rare and valuable item.

Beretta 84fs $550. very good condition shot very few times. I do not have the box.FAL Files fails when such a question is raised. Nothing is worth having unless it is made by FN or Steyr and nothing is better or more valuable that the FAL FAN Boy's rifle. I would not hesitate to purchase a DSA FAL. That opinion based on performance of them the last decade and being a owner of a L1A1 *, I pay attention to any FAL at our range

We tried to make a inexpensive steel mag with mixed results. The FAL mag just is more complex than a m14, ar10 or G3 due to several factors like the small but long feed lips. So when we have $20 polymer mag and a $35-40 steel mag.The 10" even less. But the muzzle blast is greater which gives the perception of more recoil. Anyway, 16" generally works fine with everything else up to snuff, but as other parts wear, in my opinion, 16" is just cutting it too close to the limits. I have a 15" right now that won't run at all even with a .120 gas port.www.falfiles.com Last edited: Nov 11, 2023. Nov 10, 2023 #27 #27 Nov 10, 2023. Reactions: Flypaper and hkshooter.

Be careful. the top add says 9/16-24 tpi (doesn't say right or left hand) and the bottom one has 5/8-24 RH threads which is the one you want. I have one of those barrels but I've had it 12 years.

Point of order: The Aussie L1A1 was designed, manufactured and used as a semiautomatic rifle, not as a select fire rifle, just as was the British L1A1. It never was a machine gun unless converted or modified into one. The BATFE has never ruled that a sear cut upper on a FAL makes it a machine gun.Resolved, the strap is Velcro'd to back of sheath, allowing for the ability to get to your exact length desired!

Well-known member. Mostly shoot my newer DSA or Century built FALs but this is one of my older FALs that I still shoot, this Pacific Armament Corp rifle is built with a Imbel receiver. Modified now with a Magpul adjustable stock, DSA scope top cover base and a 4-16 power scope. A previous owner put the Krinkov style muzzle brake on it.

Simply coat the the outside of the adapter with non permanent Locktite™, place a fired 7.62x39 case inside the chamber and close the bolt. After 10-12 hours, eject the 7.62x39 case and you are ready to start shooting. Inexpensive Russian ammo costs 25-50% less than any regular 308 or 30-06.11,929. Location. SC-Low Country.

This by no means answers all your questions, but this is my opinion on the wood versus plastic debate. Plastic is easy to maintain and strong. Also it looks good on a battle rifle like an AR and its cheap. Wood is less durable, scratches more easily, cracks and swells, and is expensive.Instagram:https://instagram. lake saunders mobile home parkjoseph counting carslotus nails syracuse nynieto funerals and cremations obituaries The book that I would like to see--but has yet to be published--is something akin to what FAL FILE member Wayne Johnson wrote for the the FN-49: "The FN-49-- The last elegant old world military Rifle."
