Description:

Manufactured in Belgium, the "G Series" FAL rifles had a complicated relationship with the BATFE. Originally cleared for import as semi-automatic rifles, further review of the design led the BATFE to conclude that the item was too easy to convert to full-auto; the G-Series FALs were essentially the same firearm as FN's military contract battle rifles, with only some minor part swapping dividing the two. The rifles that had already cleared customs were given a pass, resulting in a limited number of "original" FN FALs available on the American market. This rifle is a Type II configuration with "G" serial number prefix which lacks the features which were banned by the BATFE. Post front and adjustable peep rear sights, dust cover mounted Hensoldt scope, and an adjustable gas port. The upper receiver bears the one line Herstal address on the right, ".308 MATCH" on the left, and Browning import markings on the magazine well. Serialized on the underside of the chamber on the upper receiver and on the left side of the grip sans the "G" prefix. Original type two fire control group with "S" selector marking. Includes original dust cover and an extra twenty round magazine.

Rating Definition:

Excellent overall, retaining 98% original black finish with a few minor handling marks and a selector drag line. Furniture is very fine with typical age wear and minor scuffing on the handguard. Optics are crisp Mechanically excellent.
