It is the only semi-automatic assault rifle in game. What it lacks in rate of fire, it makes up in power, accuracy, and range. In multiplayer, the FAL is unlocked at Level While this rifle's semi-automatic nature and its lower hip-fire accuracy reduce its effectiveness at close range, an experienced player with a fast trigger finger can easily unload a full magazine on an enemy in close-range, like a fully-automatic weapon. This same semi-automatic firing allows the player to control how much ammo is used and increases the FAL's effectiveness at long range, even though the player must pause briefly between shots to let the recoil settle.
Because of this long-range prowess, the FAL bridges the gap between assault rifles and sniper rifles. The FAL is the strongest assault rifle in the game with a damage range of , meaning that it kills in bullets depending on the range.
As such, Stopping Power has a minimal effect, opening up a second tier perk slot. Shots will always kill in two hits at close and medium range, but three are required for a long range kill, regardless of the use of Stopping Power.
Moreover, like the UMP45 , the FAL is one of the few non-sniper weapons in the game that can kill in a maximum of three shots regardless of range, perks, or attachments. The Holographic Sight can fix this problem; interestingly, it also increases the FAL's minimum damage by five, for a total of 40, and when using Stopping Power , gives two-hit-kills at all ranges.
In Hardcore , due to the gun's minimum damage being five points higher than a player's normal health, when paired with a Thermal Scope it can become a viable sniper rifle. However, due to the fact that many players in Hardcore use Cold Blooded to hide from air support, the FAL is outperformed by the M14 EBR in easier penetration kills, higher zoom, higher movement speed, lower recoil, and a Ghillie suit in the player's model.
In the campaign, the weapon is used heavily by the Tropas in " Operation 40 " and is the primary assault rifle used by the NVA in " The Defector ".
It is powerful and effective, but is usually passed up for other weapons that can be found. At closer ranges, 2 body-shots will down an enemy. However, at longer ranges, 3 body-shots or 2 headshots will be required to down an enemy. Accuracy is very good. The iron sights are relatively easy to use, and the recoil, while rather small, is omni-directional, unlike the M14's strong upward recoil.
However, this is counterbalanced by having the worst hip-fire accuracy in the Assault Rifle category, as even the post-patch FAMAS has a smaller hip-fire spread. As such, hip-fire should only be used in point-blank situations if necessary. The FN FAL, along with the M14, have the smallest default magazines of all other Assault Rifles, at a measly 20 rounds, making only 80 bullets available for any player not using Scavenger or Dual Mags that spawn.
However, a conservative player can make good use of this supply, as if the player is very accurate and doesn't waste ammunition, they can find themselves scoring many kills before ammo becomes scarce for the weapon.
The rate of fire is how fast the player can pull the trigger, but the firecap leaves the maximum RPM to around RPM alongside the M Even if the player has a very good trigger finger, it will still fire slower than every other fully automatic assault rifle. However, it can outpace the overall RPM of the burst-fire rifles if the trigger finger is fast enough. And due to its higher accuracy, different attachment options are possible compared to the M14, which requires a Grip and a Red Dot Sight to become as accurate.
The Suppressor can turn the user into a silent-but-deadly marksman, however, this will result into needing three hit kills more often. And if desired, optical attachments can be used if the iron sights are not preferred as they can be awkward to use in some situations.
Following U. There is usually a gas regulator to adjust the gas pressure, which aids in safely launching rifle grenades. It is fed from round magazines 30 round magazines were also used in Hbar heavy barrel variants. Customarily, FN FALs are equipped with the long flash hider, which doubles as a rifle grenade launcher. The FAL is gas-operated and fires from the closed-bolt position in both the semi- and full-auto modes.
It has an operator-adjustable gas regulator which works on the "exhaust" principle. Under ideal conditions the major portion of the gas is passed through the regulator and out into the air. This system helps to better manage the gas pressure, which helps in managing the recoil.
To adjust the regulator, with the gas-regulator sleeve fully screwed up over the gas port. Then unscrew the sleeve - with either the adjusting tool or the head of a cartridge - one complete turn so that the gas port is completely exposed.
On an older FAL, the number "7" on the sleeve will be in line with the axis of the rifle. However, these numbers have been eliminated from the new LARS, apparently as a cost-saving device. This is the fully-open position of the gas regulator and when a round is fired short recoil will result the hold-open will fail to engage.
The adjustable gas system, placement of the gas cylinder above the barrel, and alignment of the stock with the barrel axis all reduce the tendency of the weapon to climb in rapid semi-auto fire.
With an empty magazine fitted to the rifle, screw the gas-regulator sleeve forward one click at a time, and fire one round only after each adjustment by inserting the cartridge into the chamber through the ejection port. When the hold-open finally engages, verify by firing several more individual rounds.
As a safety margin, screw the gas regulator forward by two additional clicks and the exhaust regulation is set. The gas regulator offers firing with the lowest possible recoil combined with the ability to direct more gas into the system under adverse conditions or in case of fouling. However, the receiver itself could easily be modified by a competent engineer to incorporate a full-length, integral optics rail — much like the A3 version of the M4.
The SCAR utilizes extruded aluminum to reduce both cost and overall weight. The FAL, however, uses steel stampings and a milled receiver. Another advantage of the FAL over the M14 is its ability to retain proper zero under harsh conditions. The M14 and its civilian counterpart, the M1A, both have a bad reputation for losing battle zero if the upper handguard is disturbed.
