Teach me about the FAL

[TOrrock]

Templar you posted this pic of Larry Vicker's FAL said he had a G2 attached to the handguards, and later that you were going to attach a light to one.



Did you attach the white light? If so how are you and Larry attaching the picatinny to the handguards?

I have a G2 I would like to attach to my DSA PARA.

Thanks,
Cameron

Cameron, I bought the piece of rail that DSA sells that allows you to attach to the standard handguards through one of the vent holes. I'll be honest, I haven't installed yet, I've been swamped with other stuff.

As soon as I do, I'll post pics though. I'm probably going to run it with a tape switch to allow either hand to activate the light.

The Springfield Armory store is selling what is reported to be unused IMI SAR 4800 magazines for $13.50 each,
which I read are metric FAL mags and that they can be / are a tight fit.

Are there any reservations with these mags for use as primary mags, or only for range use?

Well, they show a picture of a M14 magazine for them, but FAL mags are good to go, whether they're Belgian, German, Israeli, Austrian, etc.
