Updated price 09/13/2024
Incredibly- $899 Tempted to buy a 2nd one at that price!!! https://www.dsarms.com/p-17540-ds-arms-sa58-fal-primary-pistol-825-barrel-762x51mm.aspx The catch? It’s a pistol with an 8” barrel! Also, it’s a weekly deal so I don’t know how long the price will last. I have one that I honestly love to shoot. Already did the form 1 and Made it into an SBR. Only down side is if you are planning this route DSA used a pistol lower on this so if you want to eventually put a stock on it you’ll have to swap out the lower for a traditional lower. Here’s mine after converting to a SBR with a Rugged Radiant 762 suppressor.  Attached File |

Before doing the SBR paperwork I took it to the shooting range to make sure it w ok I’ll reliably shoot and was very happy with the results.
I hadn’t gotten my suppressor yet so shooting was done with just the flash hider as it came from the factory. I was expecting a huge fireball or it be obnoxiously loud or uncontrollable/uncomfortable recoil and I didn’t notice any of those things. I hadn’t put any sights on it either and was just sighting down the top of the pistol to aim and was only shooting at an indoor range at 20 yards and was able to keep all my shots inside a 3”-4” circle. |

I added it to my cart and it showed the discounted price of $1049. Now I am going to have an FAL too. Thanks OP for showing me something I didn’t know I needed.

Mine should be here tomorrow, so thanks again for the heads up. Another question. Is it possible to use the existing lower receiver and add the Para stock once the form 1 comes through, or do you need to replace it by buying one with the Para Kit? I was also looking at another option from StormWerkz which allows you to use any 1913 stock, but I think I read that the lower receiver on the pistol is different from a standard one. |

The pistol lower is different. I created a prototype 1913 rear adapter for the pistol lower, will be ready soon:  Attached File Attached File Attached File |

Doc Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DocGP: Originally Posted By tooldforthis: funny how times change years ago the DSA FAL was considered a copy Like saying a "real fake Rolex" Now...... That was the first thing that came to my mind also!! Doc That’s why when I made this post I specifically said “Real DSA FAL” I know not everyone thinks DSA guns are true traditional FAL’s. I think the FAL is the only gun where people would rather have a parts kit built on a quality receiver instead of a factory built gun. Maybe AK’s too I guess. |

Took the pistol out yesterday. What a blast! Ran 80 flawless rounds down range. True to aim. Recoil was very manageable. Handguards started to warm up a little, after 40 relatively successive rounds.
Bottom line, happy with the purchase. Great value. Will switch out pistol grip to the SAW type. Will also be installing a pistol brace. Agreed, the trigger leaves something to be desired...  |
