A local paper is advertising a NIB FA91 in .308 for $600.00.

I have several questions;

What rifle is this, anyone have any pics?
What is a good price for this rifle?
Opinions on this rifle?

Come on guys, I really need some help. Thsi guy is showing me the weapon later this PM and I know nothing about HK clones.

I own a FA91.  It is an American made 'clone' of the HK91.  Instead of a steel receiver, it uses an aluminum one.

I purchased mine for $450 including 4 magazines and a sling.  I would say that $600 is quite a bit too high.  I believe I saw them brand new for $400 in FA's last catalogue.

Mine has been reliable and accurate.  The built in rail on top of the receiver is great; you don't need to spend $300-$400 more for the H&K rail to put a scope on it.  Most of the internals on my rifle has an H&K stamp.

The downside of these rifles is that they are not the same dimensions around the mag-well area as the original welded stamped steel receivers.  Therefore, it is impossible to put on a wide forearm unless you really cut up the forearm.  You'll be stuck with the thin forearm, and it heats up kind of fast.  This doesn't bother me as I wear gloves when shooting.

If you have any further questions, feel free to e-mail me.

Unfortunately, I don't have any really good pictures of the rifle online at the moment.  Here's one that is a relatively good view of the receiver.
