Who hunts with their FAL?
Thinking about bringing my FAL (once I receive it, of course) down to Florida with me to do some hog hunting. Anyone else use theirs for hunting here?

I mostly hunt with handguns, but I do have some Fal rifles and I usually keep my "beater" Fal in one of the farm trucks. Because it is with me a lot of the time it gets used a lot for spur of the moment hunting. I have taken black bear, deer and all manner of varmints with it.

New guy here. I have taken my FAL hunting, the ergonomics make snap shots a breeze, but the weight is an issue on long treks.

Welcome to the forums.

New here, I hope to hunt with mine. One day, but the weight needs to be cut a little. Looking for some light weight options. Shorter barrel, lighter furniture, skeleton stock ], etc.
Still the idea of coyote, deer, and dare is say elk one day would be cool.

I would say it's a bit much for dogs. Plus, from what I've seen, some of those dog shots are made way, way out. The FAL isn't as accurate as say a bolt action or the FNAR for long distances from what I understand.
I just joined a gun club with an indoor rifle range and can't wait to start shooting mine!
See Sgt as for ideas on mods. He's the FAL man!FNP 45
