Lebanese Type-2 FN FAL 

The slow Mo without the top cover was great

I remember leaving in Bolivia when l was 10 years old back in the late 80's, l went to military event that was open to the public, they had FN FALS and you could shoot them for a mere .50 cents a round in Bolivian currency not a lot lol, l got behind that full sizes FN and let a full magazine rip. That was my introduction to the FN FAL, l was in heaven after that.

The FAL is definitely my favorite. Of The Cold War Era. 308 or 7.62 Nato battle rifles. I wasn't even aware of Lebanon utilizing The FAL. I'm guessing The Lebanese FAL is kind of a moon rock here in The US. I recently found out The Larry Vickers A.K.A LAV was diagnosed. With lymphoma. Thoughts an Prayers go out to The LAV. Stay strong My Friend.

My favourite black rifle, shown and explained with experience and professionalism. Thanks Larry and team, very appreciated.

The FAL is such a beautiful piece of engineering. All the right curves in all the right places.

"It's almost like the belgians got inspiration from the first model FG 42" He says the same day Ian put up a FG 42 first model repro video. The timing is glorious lol.

A friend of mine has one of these. He stole if from an abandoned Lebanese army base after heavy Syrian shelling. There are a lot of these that ended up being traded on the black market in Lebanon, most of them have the cedar crest filed off (or attempted to be filed off)

very cool piece of kit

Larry is a living legend folks. I have a fair amount of respect for the man.

The FN FAL is one of the most elegant rifles ever made.

As a Lebanese I never knew we had our own modified gun lol, live another day

Right Arm Of The Free World 💪🏼

NOW THATS A WARHAMMER ! Surprisingly flat shooting and almost no barrel whip. Running it like a boss Larry.

It’s always cool to learn about different FN FAL types.

Larry is a long time friend and my classmate from school and high school. He new what he wanted to do and set out to do just that. I have the utmost respect for his many achievements and service to America. Larry is and always will be my friend. Larry and his family are welcome in my home anytime.

I would love to see you testing the Brazilian FAL made by IMBEL

Lebanese product with multiple positions, makes sense.

I just mis-read the title as Lesbian Type-2 FN FAL.

"A bored soldier" oh Larry you know Joe Snuffy oh so well

It appears to me that this man handles FA 308 just fine.

Ammo shortage... Larry breaks out a frickin' full auto FAL :D Thanks LAV

Love from Beirut

Hi Larry ! We all love you 💪 Big hug from Italy 🇮🇹🤗💪 Stay strong

It's so strange seeing an FAL without Rhodesian Cammo.

Larry we love you for reviewing such a wide variety of guns. Keep it up. 👍🏻

Hey LAV, get well soon! Great video! Here in Brazil now we can buy the semi-auto version of the Imbel Para-FAL.

That full auto burst sounds like every documentary shot in lebanon since 1991

I've got so much respect for Larry. This man is still pumping out bad ass videos despite the medical problems.

Love me some FAL in any variety! This one is extra nice with the fun switch! To bad we all can't afford one! Thank you for everything you do LAV! ✌️

I have come to learn from the oh great wise one.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how well Larry handles that 7.62 on full auto!? What an absolute chad.

I’m hoping you can do videos on most of the FAL variants. A history on the “inch” pattern Commonwealth guns and how they are different would be nice.

All hail Dieudonne Saive, the creator of the FN FAL, and a man often called - with justification - the "Belgian John C. Garand"... also well known for the Browning Hi-Power pistol, and the SAFN rifle, also called the FN Model 1949.

FN FAL automatic sniper rifle...and FN FAL assault riffle....made of mixing Aluminum stocks...

Good explanation on lighting cuts lol On another note: awesome gun & sick vid

اكو عرب هههه

Thank you LAV for the content during your personal battle. Never out of the fight.

Larry makes that thing look easy to control in happy mode...

Lookin good Larry u are almost as slim as this FAL, keep it up great work!

The top cover removed off of the receiver was, IMO, the best part. Seeing the hammer fall, the short stroke piston pushing back the bolt, ejection of the spent brass and stripping a new round from the mag into the chamber is an amazing shot

Looks quite controllable for automatic 7.62X51

In Austria 🇦🇹 we had a simular FN. Later those assault rifle was produced in the „Steyr“ companie in Upper Austria. We called it the StG 58. That means Sturmgewehr 58. I used this weapon very often. After we got the Sturmgewehr 77 or AUG. I liked both weapons because they were very precise. Greetings from Austria 🇦🇹🍺🍻🥨🏔⛷🛶💪😎👍🐺 Europe!

This was my training rifle (indian version) in the National Cadet Corps. Never fired it but felt real badass

You should consider showing the target after these shooting montages. Be interested to see the grouping on those bursts with FAL

Look up pictures of "Bashir Gemayel" and you'll see him carrying it

I love the FAL, Own a Israeli version. Nice gun control Larry.

Watching Larry go FA makes me wish there was a movie about this man

Look somewhat better than U.S M14E2.

The worn appearance of that FAL is absolutely beautiful!

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Larry controlling this thing in full auto like a true demi god!

Yes I said 1800m. I'd say hitting a man at that distance with a camera, couple of drones and a bunch of active controls plus a guided bullet system using laser power delivered out the barrel as a passive control / spin all you like dear bullet time / bibles per pico in a stick of chewing gum and we still use WW1 tools? Come on. But those cartridges are oldschool thinking. Jumped up oil lantern really. I actually think combustible gas might be better and more controllable. That's what it is, and thermal sublimation is something we print guys understand. Every bullet gets an ID and a timestamp + sig. Forensics says inescapable cases/ but we like to play a finesse game here. It is very accurate and you can inspek too. Science is DIMENSIONAL of the review process. Thoroughly enjoyed and cheap at the price. Detective drama with Big furry dice /_ in black leopard skin _ real leopard skin sure _ I tell you about CITES and these cricket balls here. Tickle your ovaries mine booties went back to OYO supervised proper. Seeds. Little seeds in cotton wool kept surely from boko harm. Tiny little cute leopards _ sticks tail back on. Space age sig for me / sorry not sorry. Leopard smiles at me.

Anyone else trip out on the watch glare @ 5:36?

Coming from the UK I knew nothing about guns but for video games. Learning so much. Great show.

my dad fired one of these during the civil war in lebanon. never knew my country had a contract with FN. having your national emblem printed on a FAL is probably the coolest feeling ever.

Always love FAL and G3 content! More, please!

I'm interested in the FAL and I'm debating purchasing a DS Arms FAL. What should I be looking for as far as quality? I'm interested in there 16 in. Para Carbine with folding stock.

It's like every firearm he shoots, there is no recoil. He has to be using aimbot.

Wow im Lebanese and never saw this .

I reckon with a new barrel and some non stamped metal thinking it might weigh loads less and do a tighter grouping at 1800m

It is just like the FAL we use here in Brazil by the Army and Navy, i didnt notice any differences. We are now changing our service rifles, swapping the FAL for the IA2, a 556 semi/automatic rifle made in Brazil that was developed from the FAL systems, so it kind of looks similar. Awesome video as always.

Mia k would be proud :)))

Thank you for sharing sir! That is totally f’ing badass to watch that thing cycle and run like a top with the cover off of it. Man, talk about a neat and simple but totally solid operating system!!!!! Just cool man. 👍👍😎😎

Please do a FAL book!!!!!!!

It would be interesting a program about AK-type 308 rifles (like the Zastava 77 or the Galil) and comparing their attributes with those of the FAL (or the G3).

I'm Lebanese my father is full and mother 1/2 Lebanese and 1/2 irish. My grandparents on my father's side we're born in Lebanon. Our church they speak Arabic and I can't understand a damn thing Lol. We're not muslim Catholic Maronite Catholic to be exact.

CONGRATULATION TO PRESIDENT RE-ELECT TRUMP FOR 2020...[MAGA]...TRUMP=STROOONG...NO ONE CAN BEAT TRUMP IN THE WORLD...❤💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪👍

I am a certified junkie of Larry Vickers on the firing line being recorded in super slow motion. Get some!

I really like Larry's video. I learned much from them. I have a clone version called R1A1 Sporter. It shoots well. It took a bit of getting used to adjusting the gas regulator. A fun good to shoot though.

FAL stands for "light automatic rifle". Since it is not light for a rifle, soldiers here in Brazil like to joke about the name. What they didn't know, is that the "light" came in comparison to the BAR that FN was producing at the time. In fact, the FAL is essentially a evolution of the Belgium FN Model D BAR, with the entire operating system rotated 180 degrees, allowing the locking surface to be lower in the upper receiver, so a cover could be made of stamp metal, thus saving a lot of weight. Hence "Light Automatic Rifle". ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-S0YfOPrE3u0.html

I think it is a professional ROF. Once standard troops learn how to use it, it has higher killing potential than something with a slow chop.

Ok. I clicked on the link to the Rhodesian Fal, but that was only cause I had watched Ian's vid with Larry many year's ago. When reviewing Fals, I believe / wish each review would consist of Fal without any accessory and Fal with the Holbeck device (Rhodesian muzzle device). The Rhodesian device really tames that beast!!!

Bad ass gun.... should have been a damn NORMALITY for U.S. soldiers.

Ah... the fal, I remember back in the early 90s the Irish reserve troops of the Irish defence forces used to do live fire in co. Wicklow, Ireland. The shooting range was several miles from my house but I can still remember the sound echoing across the landscape. The Fals are gone now replaced with the Steyr Aug.

Sweet! Put an FAL in a video, and I'm on it. Put Larry Vickers AND an FAL in the same video, and I'll drop what I'm doing to watch it - unless I'm out shooting my own FAL.

The FAL was mainly used by Christian militias during the civil war especially The Lebanese Forces. Most of the weapons held by the latter came from Israel. Most probably was modified for the Israeli army.

Excellent footage...I had tears in my eyes seeing empty ammo casings being ejected in full auto.

Wow didn't know FN fals/SLR's are so popular internationally Here' all our police use SLR's except for some occasionals ak's

Love these guns... I would have this as a SHTF gun. Looked up Lebanese military and I do not see these weapons...not even as a reserve rifle...?

I swear. LAV's videos are the modern, remastered, more improved versions of Japanese Gun Porn

That full-auto 7.62 NATO fire on that FAL seems like shaking the gunner's soul bigtime.

I’ve been praying for you Larry, keep up the fight!

Hey pal , this rifle really kicks right 😂 Automatic mode on a 7.62×51 is hell for anyone i assume 😅

Me wondering why we don't have this type of FAL in Modern Warfare-19 that's full auto

Looks like he's controlling it just fine in full auto for as much as people exaggerate saying it's "completely uncontrollable'' in full auto.

Wow,this looks exactly the same that i had in my arms 30 years ago when i was enlisted in the Hellenic Special Forces.

This gun was probably stolen from the lebanese army during the civil war. These guns have the cedar flag on them to indicate they are owned bh the army

Man the FAL is a beauty of a rifle. Would love to add one to my collection.

4:53 i think that got slightly out of his control in full auto,i mean that is a 7.62x51 and has quite a recoill and punch.

I served alongside Lebanese soldiers, they were never issued with the FN, plo and other elements used them ok

When the cedar is carved, it means that it is military and cannot be traded. In Lebanon, they don't know how to make an air rifle😂 btw im from lebanon

One of the sexiest slow mo shots I've ever seen. Very impressed with how he handled the recoil on full auto. Cheers!

That is very impressive recoil control in full auto...

This would be cool to have...That slow mo always gets me...Awesome video as always...

We GOTTA get an FN Vickers Guide Book next!

I lost the fire selector when cleaning the weapon. I was without food for three days as punishment!

Get better Larry. We all care about you.

only one word, wow..ps who says a full auto battle rifle cannot be controlled, well ok its larry. Thanks

yo what? im Lebanese I didn't know there was a Lebanese variant of the normal FAL

Alright we need 4 of 5 para FAL videos to match the trad FAL videos now
