FN Fusil Automatique Leger (Light Automatic Rifle)

Introduced by FN Hestel of Belgium in 1952. It was a evolutionary improvement upon the previous FN49 semi-automatic rifle. It was originally designed to use the 7.92x33mm Kurtz cartridge developed by Germany during WW2 for their Stg44, the first "assault rifle". Due to US political pressure upon NATO, the US 7.62x51mm cartridge was adopted instead. Many nations not affiliated with the Warsaw Pact used the FAL, most notably the nations of the British Commonwealth under the designations L1A1(UK and Australia), C1A1(Canada), and R1A1(South Africa). Other nations adopting and/or manufacturing FAL rifles include Belgium, West Germany(G1), Austria(Stg58)Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, and Israel.

Semi-automatic only versions are popular in the US civilian market. Model range in price from $400 for rifles made by Century International Arms, Inc. which were mainly Commonwealth parts kits rebuilt on Brazilian or Canadian manufactured receivers, to $1000+ for completely US made rifles from D.S. Arms, Inc.

The FAL was adopted by the British Commonwealth in a somewhat altered form including a folding charging handle, and the plans were converted from metric to Imperial. Such FALs are usually referred to as being "Inch pattern". Likewise, Belgian, Brazilian, German(G1), Austrian(Stg58), or D.S. Arms manufacture are referred to as "Metric pattern".

Basic specifications for the FAL are as follows,

The North Hollywood shootout was an armed confrontation between two heavily-armed and armored bank robbers, Larry Phillips, Jr. and Emil Matasareanu, and patrol and SWAT officers of the Los Angeles Police Department in North Hollywood, California on February 28, 1997. Phillips and Matasareanu engaged responding patrol officers in a firefight when they attempted to leave the bank they had just robbed; sixteen officers and civilians were wounded before both of them were shot down.

Phillips and Matasareanu arrived at the Bank of America branch office at the intersection of Laurel Canyon Blvd. and Archwood St. in North Hollywood around 9:17 a.m., and set their watch alarms for 8 minutes, which was the amount of time they estimated it would take for law enforcement officials to respond. (Phillips had been using a radio scanner to listen to police transmissions.)10 As they walked into the bank, however, dressed in dark clothes from head to toe and armed with an assault rifle each, a patrol car of the LAPD was driving down Laurel Canyon—and the officers in the car radioed in a possible 211, code for an armed robbery.11 Inside the bank, Phillips and Matasareanu forced the assistant manager to open the vault; they fired at least 100 rounds to scare those inside the bank so that there would be no resistance.12 They were able to get just over $300,000, since that day's m...
