Manufactured in Belgium and imported in the early 60s, the G Series FAL rifles had a complicated relationship with the BATFE. Originally cleared for import as semi-automatic rifles, further review of the design led the ATF to conclude that the item was too easy to convert to full-auto; the G-Series FALs were essentially the same firearm as FN's military contract battle rifles, with only some minor part swapping dividing the two. The rifles that had already cleared customs were given a pass, resulting in a limited number of "original" FN FALs available on the American market. This rifle's serial number falls within a range (G2247-G2996) noted as Curio & Relic by the ATF. Post front and adjustable peep rear sights, long flash hider/bayonet lug, and an adjustable gas port with grenade setting. The upper receiver bears the one line Herstal address and "F.A.L. cal. .308". Matching serial numbers are present on the upper and lower receivers, and bolt carrier. Original style "S/R/A" markings are present on the trigger group, with a proper two-position selector switch (third position blocked by pin). The right side of the lower receiver has been electro-pencil marked "725702729902". Fitted with a ventilated triangular forearm, plastic pistol grip, and a wood buttstock with a cupped steel buttplate.

Excellent with 98% original blue and black finishes remaining, small handling marks overall, and light cycling marks on the bolt carrier. The stock and grips set are also excellent with some small dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
