Identifying & Tracing the FN Herstal FAL Rifle


Book Description

ARES Field Guide No.1 focuses on identifying and tracing Belgian FN Herstal FAL rifles, and provides key information on factory markings and physical characteristics. The guide further describes the primary variants produced by FN Herstal in Belgium, discusses FAL rifles documented in the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region, and looks at some of the factors involved in their illicit diversion, using the ongoing conflict in Syria as a case study. Field Guide No. 1 is supported by Research Note No. 9 – Estimating Year of Production for FAL Rifles, and the accompanying FAL Year of Production Estimator online tool, which calculates the likely year of production for a given FN Herstal FAL serial number.
