FAL Rifle Pack

Details

Arma3

FN FAL, right arm of the free world, designed by the late Diuedonne Saive for Fabrique Nationale in the 1950s. The FAL largely was considered a hit, with the British Commonwealth adopting or manufacturing variants (generally known as the SLR), Brazil, Austria and adopting it as main infantry rifles, and swathes of small contract purchases thoughout it’s lifetime. IMBEL continues production of the FAL to this day, effectively unchanged from it’s original configuration alongside variants that modernise the platform, and in the civilian realm DS Arms produces FAL and SLR builds for the shooter that range from the mundane SLR to Dedicated marksman platforms and the peculiar OSW.

The SLR in here was actually one of the first things I tried my hand at in Arma modding. No joke I have images from 2 weeks post launch of the Alpha with the SLR in. Kind of pleased with how far even a year brings all this along

Pack Contents

  • 14 FAL rifles, both Metric and Imperial Patterns
  • 2 dedicated scopes for the rifle system, 1 unique to the platform
