When i ordered my DSA SA58 it did not come with a handle. I think it has the slot for one it just did not come with one. I kind of want one.. Are they hard to install? Can i install one on this set up?

You should take this as a hint that you need to order another one with a carry handle... you know, for comparison.  

Enjoy your FAL.. I promise you'll never want to part with it.

Some folks say that the FAL shoots better with a solid receiver––––-

Sorry, you cannot put one in due to the difference of the receiver.  On the other hand, other than cosmetic, there is not much use of the carrying handle, just like the M-16s.  The weapon is horizontal when you are carrying with the carrying handle, that means you can easily sweep someone else.  I would save the money and get yourself either a single or 3 point sling.

You could have the receiver machined to take the handle but it would be a waste of money. The FAL handle is really not very useful.
