I've been an AR10 owner for close to a year now. I have the AR10A4 Carbine. My father turns 50 this year and has always admired the rifle...in fact, he's downright jealous. He's got the money to buy his own, but is too darn cheap to go do it. I've discussed buying a FAL with my accountant (wife) and she has limited me to having only one >$1000 rifle in the inventory. I'm thinking of having my AR10 refinished and giving it to my father for his birthday. It will either be replaced with a 20" AR10A4 in Advantage Camo finish, or a FAL (looking at DSA and Enterprise Arms). Most of the FAL rifles I've fired have been lacking in the accuracy department compared to the AR10 (probably not fair), but displayed decent accuracy nonetheless. The ergonomics seem better on the AR, but then again, that's probably just my training with the AR and lack of training with the FAL showing. I'd like the opinions of the TFL crowd regarding these 2 rifles. Strengths, weaknesses, advantages of one over the other. Can I get MOA accuracy with a FAL without spending a fortune? How is the accuracy, muzzle blast, flash, recoil, etc, on the FAL carbines? FAL owners, convince me. AR10 owners who also own FAL rifles, please compare. This rifle will be used for hunting deer, and providing backup for my son with the 45-70 on black bear, plinking, defense, some 500-800 yd target shooting, and some informal backyard 3 gun training...in other words, everything. Thanks in advance for your input.
