10/27/22 – This is a very rare FN FAL G-Series rifle in minty, original condition. The rarity of the G-series FN-FAL rifles stems from the receivers being capable of accepting select-fire components, e.g. being capable of being converted to a fully automatic rifle. Initially the BATF determined that these had to be registered or destroyed. However in 1963 the BATF reversed this position and determined that they were not “machine guns” and could be legally imported and sold as semi-automatic rifles. Additionally in 1973, the BATF issued a new opinion that specifically exempted, G-series FN-FAL rifles as imported by Browning (by serial number) from the provisions of the National Firearms Act. This rifle is listed by serial number within the exempted serial number block. The left side of the lower receiver is correctly marked “A/R/S”, which are the fully automatic markings; with the selector switch correctly factory blocked so that it can’t rotate to the automatic position. These are the same original markings as found on original select-fire rifles. This particular example is in minty with only a few minor scuffs here and there. Terrific, shiny bore. This particular gun also comes equipped with a rare and desirable offset Belgian military scope mount and a generic period-correct Redfield scope (very nice optics). It also comes with a factory-original manual, factory spare parts list, sales sheet, and a copy of the exemption ATF letter. It also comes with one proper magazine, leather sling, and original dust cover. This particular gun also has a rare lightweight hindimium lower receiver. C&R eligible.
