It's one of the things I bought to replace the M14.

FN catalogued their FAL's with a 4 digit code, like Colt does (6920, 6721, 6520).

The 50:00 was the standard 21" barreled FAL with a fixed stock, the 50:61 was the same rifle with a folding Para stock.

The 50:63 was the 17.75" barreled carbine with folding stock, and an aluminum lower. The lower on this rifle is steel, but I might replace that.

Ah ha! And so my FAL education continues! Thanks Man!

That is an outstanding example of a 50.63 except for that dingus on the end of the barrel.
If I remember correctly it should have the normal combo device on it for accuracy but I can certainly see where that dingus could make a man green with envy!!!

Because even with all the FAL's in my house, I still want one like this one!!

Yeah, I will most likely replace the flash suppressor with a FN/Imbel/DSA combo device as well.

Get a saw grip too. Very comfortable.

Schweeeet.

I think that Steyr Short FH is perfect (unless you're thinking of mounting a can).

By way of warning any brake on that barrel is going to make you hated on the firing line. The DSA brake (the combo may be different) is notoriously obnoxious. I had one that literally brought a novice shooter to tears. I think you'll find that if you put a SAW grip on it, that the recoil is significantly more comfortable.

The FAL remains my fav rifle of all time.
