I'm completely new to AKs, but I have a good friend with presses. Would these toth tool jaws be sufficient for crushing some scope rail rivets? All three rivets will be short for a 12" Draco

That actual "FN FAL" you have is the british 7.62mm Self Loading Rifle and boy what a rifle it is. Used and trained with the "SLR" during my time as a serving Leading Aircraftman in the Royal Air Force (84-87)

That better be 9x18 makarov instead of 9x19 parabellum as well.

I just used your video and the website to build my first ak!

In Rhodesia the FN was the most popular but on one occasion i used the G3, both did the job well.

Definitely would like to build one once I can invest in the tools. Great series, thank you. Much more involved than an AR.

Thank you for your video, Sir. This is now on my project list. Mossberg 500.

The fin grips look so retarded and stupid. I don’t put that crap on it.

Just when I was saying how come he did not mention the high pressure grease u said it lol thanks for them great videos

Does any body know the brand for that bipod

Why is Cali like this just seperate them from the US since they dont want to play by the rules

Jesus man you saved my life. Okay not really, maybe my thumbs. But I just bought one and naturally started disassembly without a video. I put the bolt all the way in the locked position and couldn’t figure out how to undo it. Knew there was a trick and you showed me how to “fix” my issue (general confusion)

California is nothing but the modern circus ran by a bunch of clowns. I show empathy to those who live there 🤮 that pistol grip is gross

WHAT IN THE FUUUUCK ??!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

what a shitty video....

Solid review.and solid pistol that is only going up in price!

Do you dimple all the wholes on the receiver or just the ones that take the swell necks?

Ive been having difficulty chambering a round. Works flawless without a loaded mag. Worn ejector or anything specific?

Will this be this be the same way you take apart a ptr91 pdw9???

that paper sounds horrendous

You are extremely detailed and very insightful, truly a great help even now!

Sir! You just flagged me with your disassembled bolt! Sincerely, Safety Sally.

Great job

FN FAL. It's far less finicky about ammo, and doesn't ruin your brass (unlike fluted chamber G3)

Jus use ur thumb instead of screw driver much easier

That Toth tool with the squeezer is the best method in my opinion. I’ve used rivet jigs and pneumatic squeezers but I always go back to the Toth tool squeezer. It gives me more control. And as you have shown, it’s quite easy to correct a lopsided rivet head.

Excellent

I served the Mexican army and used the fal 7.62 mm good riffle and very reliable..

30-06 would be 7.62x63 I have a 1952 Springfield M1 Tanker.

It totally different with Brandon Herrera's version which using Tokarev ammo and still using AK chassis

Beautiful work! Thanks for sharing

And I’m amazed at how beautiful the rifle is, I myself served in the Soviet Army with an SKS carbine.

Word of advice when doing your through rivets and forming the tail, try and avoid hitting the center and try and form a dome shape with no flat to the face. The more you form a flat face the thinner the edges will get, may make a pretty rivet but it will form a dome shell because the rivet wont swell properly leading to a weak rivet job

Are you supposed to countersink the receiver into the rivet holes before putting the rivets in? Or does installing the rivets sink the receiver into the dimpled trunnion holes?

Nice 👍 rifle

I used a 1" steel round bar ground flat and to fit, then pressed it with a 20 ton press. But the trigger guard rivets I could not do, so used small bolts and nylock nuts.

This is an excellent video. Not just for its content but for the way it was presented. Absolutely superb. Too often people are so busy just talking they put you off. This was a refreshing video to watch. Thank you!

In a combat rifle it isn't a sniping weapon, however the HK is remarkably accurate. Mine has the polygonal barrel. I have never seen it get dirty. I like the mushy trigger. On rapid movement, I don't want a light trigger. However I like it to break cleanly when it gets done traveling around ! That is easy to modify by anyone at home. The FN Gas operating is fine and tunable, but has a lot more parts to clean. The HK has only 2 main operating parts. They either work or they don't. Replacing the bolt and any part in the action takes a few seconds. And parts are inexpensive and easy to get. They made MILLIONS of HK's. The HK is also easier and faster to strip clear down to all moving parts to replace, fix or modify and has many more spare parts that are cheap and easy to buy. The entire trigger group is interchangeable with several of the full auto, and semi auto guns, and is simply made out of stamped steel. Easier for home repairs, very easy to do your own trigger job. Almost any of the similar models to the 91 can interchange parts. It does have a bit more recoil. I can't tell the difference in a fire fight! It also has much better iron site with the rotating rear drum sight. The HK does throw brass!! No one is going to flank you on the right side ;-) That brass can go 15 feet. It won't pile up in your fox hole. We simply extend the ejection port and glue in a small rubber bumper. It won't dent brass that way and with your dremel tool you can modify it to toss brass from 1 foot away to 20 feet away anywhere from the 2 oclock position to the 5 oclock position. I have reloaded dented brass several times in a row, with no safety or reliability issues. I don't recommend it, but have done it thousands of times during the 10,000 rounds I have put through the model 91's. You can easily put in the machine gun model recoil buffer and significantly reduce felt recoil. You can put on larger hand guards and larger bolt latches and a better magazine release on the side button. And we put a tab in our magazines to hold the bolt open on the last round. You can insert a magazine in the HK with the bolt open or closed, or even with a round in the barrel, it doesn't care. The flash hider on the original is fine but all the other brands needs to be replaced. The FN is a fine rifle. Easy to carry. The HK is simply a much tougher gun and can work in dirt and freezing mud that would stop the FN even with it's tunable gas ports. The HK will probably last forever, or longer if you remember to clean it, or even if you don't. And it makes a decent boat paddle.

Very good

Always make sure of your target .

I had the opportunity to use both rifles during my duty in army. The G3 is a toy, easy to loose the target - specially for inexperienced shooters and gets VERY hot VERY fast. The FN FAL is simple a COMBAT rifle.....the only minus is the long (very long) barrel....

Wow what an awfully misleading title

1. A place for the 308 2. A more reliable platform than an AR10. 3. Still accurate and ergonomic for CQB. 4. Parts availability for maintenance and repair. 5. Better at Armour defeating at close to midrange.

I like FAN❤

You are a god. Thank you so mich

Are you still make video

Foi a minha arma no exercito, G3, tinhamos que desarma-la e voltar a armar com os olhos vendados em menos de dois minutos, e para desrmar o grupo do pin de disparo usavamos a bandoleira, muito mais rapido e muito mais facil.
