Love your maintenance videos! I noticed that you don't have any videos for the Beretta 92FS. Can you do a series videos around the care and maintenance of the 92FS? Also it would really help me out to see you guys do an installation of the Beretta Steel Parts kit which replaces the polymer trigger, safety, mag release button, and guide rod. And maybe you can show the tools you'll need for the job. Thanks! Keep up the great work and videos!

That would be a rather long video. You may want to get or download the AGI (American gunsmithing institute) video on the 92fs. I'm a gunsmith and I EDC a custom 92fs and they are rather complex pistols compared to most others. They are great pistols and the mec-gar flush fit 18rnd mags are awesome. Having 1 pistol with 19rnds (18 in the mag 1 in the chamber) of hornady critical duty 135 grain +p 9mm all in a flush fit magazine is a damn good set up.

How often should an fnfal be cleaned (after how many rounds)? And is it true that steel bullets can't be used?

[@saw1898]

Steel cases you mean? Not a good idea in my opinion, as the rifle was never intended for anything but brass.

[@Julian-zj2qy]

Should be completely cleaned and oiled before being returned to the armoury (or your gun cabinet) no matter how many rounds. You can stretch it to a week if out on exercise or on active duty. You just find the time to clean it if you are out longer than that, the barrel being most important because of pitting. Probably the same for all firearms.

Can someone help me, I have a type (bara Fal) gun that has rust and small holes in it. I want a video of this, thank you

That's not an FN FAL - it's a DSA Arms SA58. A close replica of an FAL but not a true FAL - just sayin
