SPF: 3RD TIME THE CHARM FN-FAL 50.63 Paratrooper GSI-Trussville / Howco
This is one of my "FN-FAL 7.62mm NATO (.308)" Markings on left side of upper receiver, rifles.
It's been a safe king as it is one of the best FN rifles I currently own. Bought it over ten years ago put 5-10 rounds through it cleaned it and put it away. This was like the 3rd time I "thought" I had a confirmed sale buyer backed out for one reason or another. Dunno maybe he didn't trust me or the way I handle my finances IE dealing only in cash. Price: $SOLD.00 USD. Transfered and shipped (Include 50.00 insurance coverage actual insured value will be more approximately $75.00- $80.00 USD, If you wish to purchase this item you agree to cover the actual insured value. providing your dealer will provide a wet ink signed copy of his licence for my FFL. ETA: the last potential (flaked) buyer had an issue with this, don't know why a legitimate FFL would have a problem but this is what my transfer FFL wants. Note: this post supercedes all other prices listed in this thread. No trades, unless you have a g series FN FAL on the BATF list. Terms: Cash sent via usps certified mail. All the usual marketplace rules will apply. The first I’ll take it trumps all other inquiries. If you want something and send a pm please also post an I’ll take it publicly in the listing. Shipping: FedEx, oops(UPS), or USPS, included in price. ETA: I've found a local FFL that knows me from the days I was a FFL / SOT and will do the transfer to your FFL and ship for a flat rate of 50.00 bucks included in the price. Pretty good deal as most ffls in this area want 75-100 for the transfer alone not including shipping. I provide the first $50 of insurance, buyer can purchase additional coverage. Comms: via email only please, via my profile to left <------ To give full disclosure if the rifle sells the 10 round belgian mag does not go with it. A 20 round mag will go with it. A hindinium mag if I can find the one that came with. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

MP rules require a price. Put in Auctions if you want to find out what it'll bring.

Yes it is.
But to give full disclosure if the rifle sells the 10 round belgian mag does not go with it. A 20 round mag will go with it. A hindinium 20 round mag if I can find the one that came with it. ![]()

Thanks for pointing that out M62 / M76.
I would put it in the auction section but won't be held to a specific price as only I know what I will accept and that is most likely not what the membership would be willing to pay.

Yes Im lowering it once again.
Health issues are making me sell of a lot of my goodies, It will be hard on my wife to liquidate my trucks and other rolling stock so I figure I will get a head start on getting rid of the guns. So now I'm offering this prime example at $5500.00 ![]() |

...Who knows...
Bummer about your health issues. I hope you will come out on top. I tried to pm you but no go. Any chance you'd like to liquidate any reloading supplies for some bk radios? I maybe close to your neck of the woods. I know we've had coms before, but I can't find your info.

Sorry for the delay, The mag is a original FN 10 round mag and I need it to be in compliance with my other rifles.
I'm only selling this to someone in a sudo free state and hence they don't need 10 round mags. |

Just trying to get rid of excess stuff.
I always thought the S was going to hit the fan and bought way too many extra rifles and such for when other like minded individuals needed them to fight the fight and the fight never happened in the time frame I expected. |

You paid $5000 for this 10 years ago?I only ask as G series were going for $5000 in 2007,thats when I joined the site looking for one.Is it the rarity of the howco rifles that make them more valuable?

Maybe thats a good question to the FN files forum as I have no idea.
I bought it as its the only one of the FN FAL rifles that is legal in California State. At the time I had a devotion to staying legal. |

It looks pretty new to me. If I was in the market for a rifle like this one I would have to say its a pretty prime example.

A fine Rifal indeed!
if I could afford it's worth - I would buy it from you! Giving the Falfiles membership first dibs, is most 'Upstanding' of you.

To counter the recent troll post: I've been doing biz with NFADLR since 1992. (Long before the FALFiles existed.) He is trustworthy.
He is selling a 50.63 Para in great condition that is quite scarce. It all comes down to what is a fair price in today's market for that item. Given their scarcity, I believe that his asking price is reasonable. Enough said. Last edited by Rawles; May 13, 2017 at 12:36. |

*free bump*
No intent to high jack the thread. Just a possible buyer question: so this FAL is currently legal in CA? And I assume if you put a 20rd mag in it instead of a 10, it won't be legal in CA anymore? Thanks sir! Last edited by FALicious; May 23, 2017 at 19:55. |

Correct with reservation but then if someone within the scum sucking state of California wants to purchase this item they will be supplying their own ten round magazine and will also be supplied the lower receiver and any other accessories that may be supplied with the riFAL like the bipod directly to them and the upper minus the flash hider will be delivered to their FFL of choice.
I didn't consider selling this to a California domiciled man or woman but there is that possibility and I wouldn't discriminate against said individual. Reservation is it was legal when it was purchased, As to how any "State of California" laws have changed I'm not sure but it has been made legal by following the recently passed regulations. |

I have located the hindinium 20 round Belgian magazine that will ship with the rifle.
It smells of buttered Belgian waffles. |

Not being a smarta** but is there any reason you won't put it up on GB yourself?

You have that backwards...

50.63
Nice rifle. Do the Birmingham, AL import rifles differ in value from this the Trussville, AL rifles? I've seen 50.63 rifles with both importers.

No difference in value with regards to importer. Birmingham was simply GSI's earlier address prior to relocation to Trussville.

The 50.63 would be cheaper in the long run but have it your way...
Want me to charge your FedEx account for shipping of said girl ? You can send me a envelope with cash for her brokerage fee!! Guess that would make me a pimp. lol |
