A bit overdone for my taste, but I'll bet it's a blast(pun intended)to shoot...

I just want to know which professionals use that rifle.

It looks nice, but a 308 as a CQB rifle?  If that was such a good idea, it would of happened a long time ago.

Anybody shot one of these things?

If the bad guys get close enough to hit them with that short barrel noise maker, You also get to set them on fire with the muzzle flash!

I've got a 16" FAL w/DSA liteweight brake.  No blast probs for the shooter(although I use plugs in/muffs over), but the same can't be said for spectators.  Even if you couldn't hear or see, the pop to your chest would let you know the shooter had touched one off.  That being said, it is just about my favorite rifle to shoot, but for the above reasons, it's about my least favorite to watch someone else shoot...

Nice gun but for QCB and everything eles(cuz I can't see past 100 yards anyway) I got to have my 12ga.

Just one squese and 9 .30cal balls go down range,.70+cal slugs make big NASTY holes in bad guys.


I have a buddy that is a police officer,he told me about this time a guy was shot with a 12ga slug.
It whent in and hit the guy right on the back bone.
Snaped it like a twig and the dude folds in half!
Now thats a mans gun

One of the machine gun dealers at the BRC had a REAL auto FAL with an 11" barrel. Its nickname was "The Hammer". It was FUN to shoot, but as far as I'm concerned, it has no real useful value. Nothing but noise, flames, and recoil.

I remember watching guys shoot it, it looked way cool but quite uncontrollable.  Beyond 25 yards a full-auto carbine FAL would be nigh useless.

Still, I WANT ONE!
