FN FAL price check

[Swineflew 480]

I found one with a single mag, didn't know if it was worth anything. I guess it's a rare helicopter crash only weapon, but didn't know if it was actually worth anything.

Just curious.

fn fal the best gun in the game. current price is at 5 to 6 mountain dews.

[doom4mr 135]

its a good weapon but with 1 mag its useless...

you can find mags only at crash sites... or players and tents, but its rare

[Pirx 0]

Its a extremly good rifle, with only one downside, you find the mags only at crashsites. I would keep it.

Whered you find it? one of our guys dumped one last night on US 265 (I think). I think the fact that he dumped it speaks volumes! :P

[NoRegrets 495]

I dont like this gun ... depends on the way you play the game

I prefer a combination of a good AR with a scope like the m4a1 cco/l85 and a sniper rifle dmr/m24/as50

[Blakorr 77]

i prefer to carry a sniper rifle and some sort of silenced SMG

[noobfun 87]

ill give ya 4 gold and a rez scroll, k?

[Tatakt 50]

definately worth a couple of mountain dews.

i tried the FNFAL only a few shots. but i think it is very accurate like the M14. But the magazines are rare as hell and thats the reason why i would take an m14 over the FN FAL.

My lodout today is: M16A4 ACOG and SVD Camo ;)

i found a FN FAL at the one and only crash site i've found. it was awesome for the 1 magazine worth of ammo i had for it. ended up dropping it in a barn for an 1886 as i had no room or tent at the time to keep it. i don't understand making the ammo as extremely rare as the gun. perhaps much more rare than the common ammo, but you should be able to find it in places other than crash sites IMO...

I'll give you £2.50 and a Berkley nipper, ok?

It is a excellent weapon. 1 shot kill. if you're a good shot you can easily take a moving target. keep it, it is nice in tight situations^^

Helicopter craches aren't that rare. If you know where to look you can usually find 2-3 in the course of an hour. that's usually 2-4 FN FALs among other goodies.

FN FAL has great damage, ok range, and is pretty loud. I'd take it over any other AR with just iron sights. Since I can get an ACOG on an M16, though, I prefer that as my primary with an SVD for longer range and an M9 SD for stealth work.

I prefer the ACOG on an AR because it is a quicker option for scouting than switching back and forth between binoculars. Not only can I quickly scout an area but I'm also ready to fire on any target I locate.

I took it off a body in a fire station.

I'm sure I'll keep it until I die (won't be long) but I was just wondering if it was worth anything.

If I use all the ammo maybe I'll trade it if anyone wants it, assuming I don't die. I'll update this post if I decide to trade it.

Edit: If you read my journal you'd know how I found it =p

M16A4 best AR in the game tbh. Optics are awesome for both close range and medium range and its accurate upto 500m. Place the horizontal lines on the scope across your enemies shoulders untill you get the line that fits, and you have your zeroing right there.

my best offer is 3 cans of mountain dew

FN Fal is great, It's not quite a one hit kill but it will knock someone out with the first shot so if you can hit someone with the iron sights you can be sure they are down for at least a few seconds.

It has great range like the M14, which is another excellent option. I currently have one with 3 mags and another 2 mags in my bag.

I would take it over the ACOG any day as it's so good at close encounters which is usually how you engage people while running through the woods.. If you get up close to someone with the ACOG or similar scoped AR then you are normally in trouble.

I have a FAL and an L85 for longer range and target spotting. The FAL with the NV scope is useless though for most day to day useage.
