Originally manufactured in Belgium as a semi-automatic rifle, this FN 308 has been upgraded to select fire configuration by Hard Times Armory of Smyrna, Georgia, making it a close copy of the Cold War signature "Right Arm of the Free World". The chef modification was the addition of a pocket in the receiver to accommodate a safety sear, which is similar (but not identical) to the sear pocket seen on the select fire military FAL and the "G-Series" commercial FAL; the pocket is not externally visible with the trigger housing installed. The trigger and the bolt assembly are properly configured, with a three-position "A"/"R"/"S" selector and a matching numbered bolt and bolt carrier with proper geometry to engage the safety sear. Both the Gun South and Howco markings are present on the right side of the receiver, with the caliber on the left. Adjustable post front and peep rear sights, with an internally threaded flash hider, adjustable gas system, triangular forearm, smooth pistol grip, and a side folding metal buttstock. Two extra magazines are included.
