[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Fal General Info Needed

Posted: 3/26/2005 12:38:56 PM EDT

I'm new to the Fal-style thing and am seeking info on the basics before I make a purchase. What I'm looking for is model type info, for instance I've seen Springfields listed as SAR-48, SAR-4800 and would appreciate info on the differences, not to mention the other manufacturers and variants.

Thanks, Keith

Welcome to the addiction. I have 18 of them in different forms! As far as I know with the Springfields the SAR-48 was a preban and the 4800 was the post ban with the goofy thumbhole stocks and stuff to pacify the legislators for a very short period of time. I could be mistaken though. A great place to hang out on for FAL info is the falfiles.com. There is some good knowledge here as well, but more specific there.

Well, I thought I too was addicted when I had five. But I found that I was wrong!pages.prodigy.net/rogerlori1/emoticons/drool.gif

Buy the best you can afford. DSA usually kick butt, I built mine from a STG58 kit and an Imbel receiver. It is a very nice rifle. For most a DSA is the best route. Good luck.
