Pointers to Great FAL-Related Threads in Other WT Forums

[marcclarke]

Since many people will now begin coming to this forum for information about the FAL rifles, and since the FAL has been discussed in some superb threads in other forums, I am starting up this thread to hold brief descriptions and pointers to some of those other threads.

I don't think the older threads should necessarily be moved from their original locations to here, and I don't want new visitors to miss some of the previous discussions. The forum's search engine forbids "FAL" as a search term, as it is too short. This search engine limitation makes it hard for people to find previous discussions of the FAL rifle elsewhere on the WT forum.

I'll be posting entries in this thread over the next few weeks as I revisit some of my personal favorite FAL threads. I encourage others to do likewise. :)

An excellent discussion of some of the relative merits of the M14/M1A rifle versus the FAL rifle, with posts by Gabe and Anthony.

As I own both an HK-91 and a DSA FAL, I found Anthony's posts in this thread comparing the relative strengths and weaknesses of the two rifles to be of great interest.

A thread of great interest to those of us who want to get some specific FAL training from someone who has been there and done that.

An excellent (and long) thread on what to look for when shopping for a FAL rifle.

Here is the epic thread that I had in mind when I came up with the idea of posting pointers to other FAL-related threads in other forums. I consider this thread to be required reading for anyone how has a FAL or who is considering getting one. :)

In my biased opinion, one of the best threads on the WT forums comparing the relative strengths and weaknesses of the M4 and the FAL platforms.

And if one want to search on the WT forums for information about an FN FAL?

"L1A1" or "SA58" or "FALs"...
