    Anyone here have this FAL from Atlantic Firearms?

    I've been eying this FAL type rifle from Atlantic Firearms for the last 6 months. They say it's CA legal and I'm not really concerned about all that. I'm more concerned with fit finish and reliability.

    Can't speak from personal experience, but I've heard these can be a bit spotty.

      cant speak for that one personally but i have an enterprise arms fal i bought off a member of this board and love it, not to mention enterprise ams has great customer service in my opinion, keep a look out on the rifles for sale forum also, you can find some pretty good deals on there if you keep your eyes open.

          Yeah I'm thinking a pass on this manufacture may be in order. I'll probably just save up for a more reputable brand with good customer service.

            Or just build your own. DSA, IMBEL or Coonan receivers work well with IMBEL or STG58 parts kits.

              I don't have that exact rifle, but I've got an Entreprise STG58 and I love it.

                i just bought an entreprise imbel fal. very nice but have failure to feed every 3 or 4 rds the mag follower seems to be causing or the mag spring. accuracy is very good though. i bought it factory direct though so its not too much of a problem to get it fixed since entreprise is local for me. overall i love the rifle and would defintely get another.
                i got the problem resolved about a week after i shot it. the bolt was binding on the receiver rails. entreprise took care of it and it runs ok now.

                  Which Enterprise FAL did you get? What type of Bullet Button? Can you mount a Scope on it?

                    My Entreprise FAL worked fine once the 10-20 magazine was tossed and replaced with a 10 round magazine. No failures since then.

                      Maybe there's hope yet. Do these take the standard FAL magazines?
