Any of you guys have FN FALs as well? I have my SCAR 17 CQC, but the blast from the AAC Brakeout 2.0 is pretty bad with the 13 inch barrel, and running suppressed, well, gun get a little front heavy after a while. Was looking for another .308 battle rifle to burn through some .308 147 grain swag, and saw AIM Surplus was selling the FAL Voyagers for about $1050....
knowing the SCAR is light years ahead of the FAL and understanding that the FAL wont be as light, accurate, or ergo friendly as the SCAR, if you own both, does the FAL still have a place in your range rotation or does it just collect dust? Going to blast my SCAR 17 CQC a bunch this weekend and see how I feel by the end of it, but going back and forth on picking up a FAL as well at that price point Digging all the SCARs wearing red dots... i'll have to run a micro on mine and see how I like it |

I loved it. I sold it to get a SCAR but only because I couldnt afford to just get a SCAR quickly and have both. Yeah, the SCAR is *better*, but the FAL was really fun to shoot. I found it to be especially pleasant to handle for some reason that I cant really put my finger on. I could imagine seeing the day when I bought another one. |

I've owned an 18" Imbel FAL and a 16" DSA Para FAL. The Imbel was a 100% kit build on a Gear Logo receiver with Penguin furniture and I should have never sold it. The DSA Para was really nice too, however the para stock is a little uncomfortable. I saw that same deal at Aim recently and it definitely re-kindled the FAL flame, however I have too many other projects to jump on it. $1,000.00 is a bargain for that rifle; too bad the 18" are sold out.

Sold my 16" DSA to get another rifle that I traded towards my 17s. Loved the FaL and wish I could have afforded both. Really want a 16" Voyager when funds allow. At the end of the day, I prefer my 17s for many reasons. Also, I have the AAC flash hider and it is awesome on my CQC 13". Not too much blast at all, very plesant to shoot all day. I generally run thru 120-140 rounds of ZQI per range trip now that I have my gas screw situation fixed. |

A friend of mine has the MREX, and while it is very nice, to me it adds enough weight that it takes away from the key feature of the SCAR, and that is it's light weight. He has a setup just like yours in fact. I do however like the MREX, just not the solution I want to go with.
