Just picked it up form a local guy. Very nice condtion DSA SA-58. Came with a DSA scope mount. 13 Austrin Metric Fal mags. Std. mount. 1 30rd mag, 2 5rd mags. I added the scope and mount of my Ar15 for now. This is one of DSA's with a non-chrome lined barrel. Put about 200rds through it functions great. I have had several  Fal's over the years. What has been your experance with the DSA non-chrome lined barrels.  Other than being a bit rough on my brass. What kind of groups have you Been getting. Best load? What weight of bullet? Thanks  I will post some more pictures latter.

Nice FAL! Being that a FAL is to heavy to be a competetor for an entry type rifle a SPR makes the most sense for the fine weapon.
With decent ammo I get 1'' and less groups from mine. I hear so much talk about FALs being unable to shoot with precision  but with a little work on the carrier and trigger and a barrel without 50,000 rounds down it they can be very accurate.
Mine is not all DSA, it has a new 21'' Imbel barrel (non chromed) as well. I have switched to a rubber coated SAW grip sinse this photo was taken and I like the feel better than the original.

Very nice. I like the rail. Is that a DSA Rail with long top cover?

Nice.  

I also have a SA-58 that I bought slightly used.  Love it.  

The SA-58 barrels are reportedly US made Badger Ordinance.  The SA-58 is known for accuracy among FALs.   Groups with various, quality surplus usually is around 3-4 inches at 100 yards.   That's using my 4x ACOG scope.   Mine really likes Hornady Steel Match ammo .   I can usually get groups down to about 1.5 - 2 inches.  Not AR15 accurate, but close enough.

Mine shoots 1-2 MOA all day long and will do less than 1 MOA with Federal 168g Match. I did have a trigger job (which helped alot!!) from Vanden burg Custom.

Enjoy yours!
