I picked this DSA STG-58 up today in a FTF trade. I'm into it around $750.00. It came with six mags and a scope mount. I had the Austrian sling. I had eight more metric mags already so I'm set.

Serial DS28XXX. The guy I traded with thought he got it sometime in the late 90s but could not quite remember.

Other than the compliance parts it looks to have been built from a mix of FN and Steyr .mil parts.

The barrel has a Belgian proof. Steel STG hand guards.

I've been wanting a STG-58 clone for some time and I'm glad this one fell my way.

It was built on a near-mint STG58 parts kit that came in before barrel importations were banned.  Those were some damn fine FALs, and a very reputable USA made receiver.  Good score.

Even better if it the parts kit has matching numbers (lower, bolt, carrier, barrel)

Congrats on a nice piece

PS: got any more Austrian slings?

Yes, but they are not going anywhere. Add a fosch and they serve for a K98 sling.

I've really have no interest in wood for it. My L1A1 has wood.

I always thought the STG-58 was a more handsome weapon in it's later trim. The early wood stocked versions always seemed cobbled together to me for some reason.

BTW....I just got a EM from DSA. According to DSA my weapon left the factory in Sept. of 2006.
