The FAL has it's own bible. It is expensive but well worth it.

Is the one from DSA a reprint?

Nope, DSA bought a bunch of them from the publisher.  Their price is probably as good as you will find.

Called DSA in January and they said the book was back ordered until March. Gave them a call yesterday and was told that the book is no longer being published. I've been looking for it for months. Anybody have any ideas where I can get my meat hooks on one.

That's odd, called them yesterday too and the gal responded to expect some in June. Same thing with gunthings, "Mid 2011". I'm crossing fingers.

Holy shit!!!!! I want it but not that bad. Can anybody that has the book give me an ISBN off of their book. I got a couple of small bookstores that I frequent and maybe one of them can work some magic

Thanks, hopefully I can find one.

Looked everywhere. I think I called about 20 different places. Nobody has it or can get it. I did find someplace in England that had it for $170 shipped but I don't feel comfortable about sending $170 to a foreign country. I'm gonna check e-bay and see what I can come up with.

Edit: Numrich has 3 of them instock for $165. As painfully expensive as this is, I just ordered mine. Hopefully this helps anybody else out who is looking for the holy grail of FAL books.

I received this directly from the author/publisher:

Dear           :

Thank you for your enquiry.

We are working on a new follow-on title about the FAL, working title More on The Fabled FAL, which will contain all the new, previously unpublished material which has come in since the original books were published. This will appear early this fall, at which time we will also offer a new reprint of The FAL Rifle.

Thank you again for your interest in our products.

.....the finest gun books in the world!


Be that as it may, after quite a long hunt, I finally found one on-line at a gunstore in Texas for $140 shipped.  I will be looking forward to "The Fabled FAL" in the Fall for sure.
