Hello,

I inherited this from a friend in 2017.

I'm trying to figure out what I have per say.

I believe it is a metric FAL built on a imbel receiver from an Austrian Parts kit. My buddy built him himself years ago. I have fired it many times and it runs well.

Can anyone help?

Hoping to determine what it's value is as I am looking to go a different direction with other guns.

FALFILES would dissect the hell out of that rifle for you.

Give them a try over there.

Stg58 kit on an imbel receiver.   If the serial numbers on bolt carrier, lower and barrel match the kit is worth $1k or a little more.  The rifle complete is probably $1400 or a little more.  This is one of the more desirable parts kits.


The mags are $30-40 each.

This! Except if I were selling it as a package I’d price the magazines at $40-$50 each.
That’s an awesome example of a standard FAL, no bells and whistles, just standard FAL.

Love the pictures too!

I built a couple just like it back when parts kits and receivers were cheap. You could build something like that for around $650 if you had the right tools.

Only down side to that is the handguards got seriously hot when dumping a couple hundred rounds through it quickly.
Of course that was when surplus ammo was cheap too.
