I'm thinking about getting another FAL

[mouthpiece]

Very nice Imbel built by ARS/Gunplumber in the classifieds.
He knows his stuff and is one of the best FAL builders in the US.

Thanks mouthpiece, but I think I am going to save a little more so it will be another month or two before I purchase.

Someone got it. It's gone....

Yep. If I hadn't picked up a new orphan last weekend, that someone would have been me. Nice score for whoever got it.

I regret having sold every Fal I have owned over the years. I miss them now!

you should buy my imbel to make you feel better.

I regret having sold them because when I bought them, they cost me $150.00 each. Now they would be 1k

I have a DSA STG58. I like shooting it and have had absolutely no problems with it. The cost of the ammo prevents me from shooting it very much.

I've thought about gettin' an FAL myself. If I had to get one it would be an original FNH but I ain't got the money for that, well not yet.
Hopefully over the summer I get enough money.
What are some good FAL companies? I've heard of DSA, ain't they also the one that make the HK G3 clone as well?

stay away from hesse, century and entreprise. DSA makes whole rifles but also sells receivers by themselves. The DSA's are billet and tend to have the greatest internet following. Think of a DSA FAL sort of like an Arsenal AKM...both reputable companies that make solid, quality, out of the box ready to rock and roll guns. Imbel receivers are IMO the best you can have as they are hammer forged under FN license and intended for military use. The pre-ban Imbels (sar-48) imported by springfield are very valuable and excellent guns. Century imported Imbel receivers and if you find a century built imbel it improves the chance of it being a good gun for the simple fact that the receiver will be in spec from the get go. Century FAL's (especially on a non imbel receiver as mentioned) are like century AKs...some run great, some are garbage and made half out of inch parts and half metric pattern parts. Coonan receivers are cast steel but tend to get better reviews than the hesse or entreprise.
