| My friend has a Argentinian FAL- with matching numbers. It has a 21 inch barrel and a bi pod that is folding and attached. It's been in his safe unfired for the past 24 years. He's looking to sell it. What do these go for ? Are the Argentinian FALs worth anything ? |

Are you talking about a true preban made in Argentina metric FAL? All matching with the para rear sight and closed ear front sight? These are the cream of the crop. They sell for $1500+. There are other lesser Argentina FAL type that sell for $1k more or less. These could have been complete uppers or bare receivers imported to USA then mated with new or used parts kits. |

He wants to sell it and buy a 16inch DSA tactical. |

If it's matching numbers it's probably not a SAC LATTA; if this is the case it's worth $1800-$2400 depending on the configuration and importer.
Second question is matching numbers where? Barrel also? Need more info; it could be, for example, a SAC Latta with force matched internals/ lower. Or with IMBEL or other parts. You know what they say about photos. |

If it's been sitting in his safe for the last 24 years and is indeed numbers matching (upper, lower, bolt, carrier, barrel), chances are that it is an Armscorp or National Arms pre-ban import, which would make it a $2000+ rifle all day. |

I bought one for like $900 about 8 years ago. I sold it a few months later for $1500 a hour after posting it on FAL Files no haggling on price or anything. I thought I had priced high hoping to get around 1200 for it.
I would have kept it but the the AWB had ended and I live in a free state, and I already had a few FALs |
