Imagine chilling with the homies in the crack house, then suddenly you get zooted with a 308 from 3 meters.

Say what you will about this gun, and about RON, but I instantly fell in love with the way the SA58 was portrayed in RON from the sound design, to the model, to its in-game capabilities.

Interesting fact: The FAL was originally designed for the .280 british cartridge. The US top brass dug their heels in and said that anything less than a .30 cal is not going to cut it so it was rechambered for 308/7.62x51. The FAL performed worse with the 7.62x51. The project was supposed to be a standardisation across all NATO forces but the US went with M14 and the Germans went with G3 while the rest of the western world went with the American request of the FAL. To add insult to injury, a few years later, the US dropped the M14 for the AR-15 platform in 5.56 even rejecting the AR-10 in favour of the lighter cartridge. We were designing our replacement for the SLR/FAL with the 4.85mm IW (SA80) which was a rework from the EM2 which was origionally designed for the .280 British round. The 4.85mm was far superior but again we redesigned it in 5.56 as the US dug their heels in on STANAG so we got the L85/L86. To add further insult to injury, the US has now adopted a round that is more along the lines to the .280 British cartirdge that we proposed nearly 80 years ago. Had the FAL been accepted by the US in .280 British, it would probably still be in service across all of NATO to this day, probably in the SA58 style configuration. But there we go, politics always gets in the way of a good idea.

American cop: 7,62 Is VeRy LeThAL yOu CaNt UsE iT!!!! Brazilian cop: casually walking with a FN FAL

I genuinely cannot put into words how glad I am that the SA-58OSW is in RoN. I have been using this thing since day 1

With a mod that gives it long barrel and wooden furniture and turns the Beretta into a Hi-Power , I can roleplay as the Argentinian Military .

Even with a can this thing sounds vicious in-game. I'd love for them to add more 7.62 NATO/.308 rifles into the game even though I'm aware most police precincts don't really stock or even use them.

I love it because the 308 makes enemies fully realize AND recognize they got absolutely zooted

I think one of the overlooked upside of this gun is the concussive effective it has on the suspects. When it fires, its loud gun sound should apply certain amount of suppression to the suspects so they rethink their choices. However, this upside is debatable since no one tested this.

I love playing this thing with a muzzle brake, and seeing my team mates visibly flinch beside me.

I fucking love the FAL in general, FAL fans rise up

I didn't even realize my favorite gun in CoD:BLOPS was also my favorite gun in RoN. I love the SA58. I have 2 modes for it. LMG and Sniper. 20 rounds of 7.62 at full auto will clear a fucking hallway and NVGS with a big scope really rocks in the new Port Hokan map. The ability to just drop someone to the floor in a shot or two is so handy when you are taking fire or being ambushed

How I play Ready or Not >> Pepperball or beanbag to start out. After a couple tries bump up to the mpx, p90, or mp10. Try some more before going to mk18 or 556 of some sort. If I'm still not getting it, go to the lvar for 300 blk. Usually the Lvar does really well and gets me through missions without dying, but Ides of March took me 42 tries to solo with an A rank. I had to use the SA-58. That's my go to gun if I can't seem to get it without dying. When I do use it, it's got ap rounds with a break on it. No more messing around when that guy comes out. Great gun and I'm glad they have 762 in the game

your videos are PURE quality. may your subs increase tenfold this year as it is well deserved :-)

SA-58 is love. SA-58 is life. Muzzle Brake is the Patrician's choice. Nothing makes the bad guy think twice more than the big shoota.

It irks me so god damn much that the FN FAL isn't in more games and movies. It irks me more than I care to admit.

You use the MP7 for it's armor negation, you'd also use the P90 for the same thing. You use the FAL for armor negation and body negation, its for when you want the suspect to not only die but die quickly no matter the armor.

In Brazil is a normal caliber for the officers. Any street officers have one here. We call this one “PARAFAL”.

I have an Airsoft version of the SA58. I have the 30rnd extended magazine for it which I really like the look of when it is in my SA58. Mine is the version with the polymer handguard and a 16in barrel.

Great video as always! Keep up the good stuff Also been loving the airsoft stuff so i was wondering if youd post airsoft "gameplay" videos aswell or just the review type vids?

one of my go to weapons in the whole game \

great video as always

The reason the SA58 is here is probably because Los Suenos is basically a warzone. Things are so desperate that they'll give the cops the deadliest weapons possible because in a city this bad, you'll probably need it.

SA58 in my experience is situational. Very strong in the right scenarios but suffers in the wrong ones. My top choice for tougher bigger maps like postal service, port and maybe farm. But weak in CQB because small mag cap and high recoil. General rule of thumb for me is to use the OSW for larger maps and to use the Benelli for CQB. Although the Benelli is still usable even at range.

Here on te Brazil we use te model Parafal and the Model FN FAL is the regular rifle of our army and Police he is a 7.62x51mm

3:05 FN FAL is NOT a semi auto rifle. It is Full auto rifle with sellect fire. There are Semi auto only versions of the rifle , but as a base rifle FAL is sellect fire. aka , Full auto AND semi auto.

What a nice video!

I just came from garand thumbs video, I do wanna say I live in Australia where airsofts or hell nerf guns are conterversial, so my knowledge isn’t too great. But on his video this gun is classed as a pistol because of the brace and that had be losing my shit. A gun that shoots a 7.62X51 is classified as a pistol a battle pistol yeah that make sense.

I use this weapon a lot, and most of time I only get to use 2 mags at the end of the mission.

I actually love the gun, even just for its feeling. When you emergency reload and rack the bolt, there is No other gun even close as good to it. And the sound, it just hits hard, in game and as the player.

Hey nice video, I think you should do one about the GA416 (in-game: HK416)

Best weapon to end engagements fast, but not if you need living suspects. When you showed the ides of march gameplay and explained the strategy, I got flashbacks, because i was stuck on this mission for a long time. Every time I tried to not kill them, they ate 1-2 7.26 boolets and still had the audaciry to shoot at me. I wouldn't reccomend this strategy, especially when you are playing alone.

I own an actual SA58 OSW. Great weapon platform. It’s got some weight to it

In the 1.0 LSPD you can see a display case on the left of the entrance holding an m14, an m1911(I think) and a classic swat helmet. The plaque on the case details the events of an officer who basically lead a swat platoon to dissable a nuke in LS. These officers had to switch their weapons to m14s, a 308 battlerifle, since rounds from their smgs and ar-platform rifles were ineffective against the terrorists body armor. After reading this I wouldn't be suprised if LSPD adopted 308 as a cqb cartridge in light of that event.

This and the tiny barrel AK should add concussive effect on the user if fired indoors and without suppressor.

I kind of find the idea of going throught the Vinyard Level with not only lighly armored but also lightly clad cultists with a 7.62×51mm round as ... overpowered.

Not so much of a fan of traditional looking guns, but I love the FAL/SA-58 in this game. Both aesthetics and function. I do hope we get more 7.62 NATO alternatives though, even though it is not what I'd think of as a traditional law enforcement/close quarters cartridge.

Not sure if this was mentioned later because I'm commenting in the middle of the video but another reason this weapon and other short barreled 308 caliber rifles aren't used is because 308 doesn't perform well out of a short barrel. 308 needs a full length barrel to really be effective otherwise you're just using a heavier bullet, with more recoil, and noise with no advantages. 5.56, 300 BO and 7.62x39 all perform better than 308 out of shorter barrels. However its a video game and the fantasy of cqb with a 10 inch cannon is awesome nonetheless.

Fn 49 amd Fal developed by same man ,Dieudonne Saive at FN ,he was one of Brownings diciples.

In a nutshell, THIS GUN SLAPS!

After I used this gun in game, I went right onto DSA's website as well as some forums to read up on reviews, and sadly found that it seems theres a serious quality control issue with DSA. Numerous problems with reliability.

Hell yeah! The Right Arm of the Free World!

This is a cool series. I wonder what you'll say about the F90, LVAR, MP5/10mm, UMP-45, and SPC.

can you do theSr-16 next please i love your videos

One thing you got it wrong, SA58 is a compliance device when firing full auto with muzzle break blindly 🤣 It's got reputation for killing comms in Park Holmes especially because we're sure as shite ain't no crackheads down there packing that kind of heat. Debrief is usually "Who tf fired full auto again with SA58 without a bloody can?", I mean I/we don't dictate gear but jfc - I can't hear shite if you don't put a can on SA58 lmao. Would love to see 7.62 NATO guns more but SA58 is a bit too CQB, currently it's being a placeholder for SCAR-H and SIG SPEAR. It doesn't outperform intermediate cartridge in practicality, but if preference and style given, suppressed SA58 with LVPO works well enough - coming from someone who played on controller and has hand injury. Not a suggestion, nor criticism: Editing has been less memey, I appreciate historical and in-game insights and strategies. Not sure if intentional or not. I'm supportive of whichever direction you prefer. I enjoy both.

Would love them to implement the CAR into the game!

you should make a video on the f90!

Here's hoping that Void will also add a G3 rifle too, to make it stand out from the FAL is adding a HK-79 grenade launcher as a choice that can shoot less lethal nades

I mean, you say it's not practical and yet in Commander mode it's been the reason our group have taken back more incap'd than dead. It's really down to how and where you shoot, and we've got decent trigger discipline between us.

SA58 is a skill gun - if you can land your shot - you don't need to follow up

I use this one on missions that are pissing me off. I'll go in with nothing but mags, no supressor, and heavy armor. Mag dump from the hip in full auto.

Fun fact the SA 58 was a modernization of the FAL you can have the original length shorten and all of that personally never like seeing it in media because people get confused about the actual og FAL and the SA 58 different companies made this and one is British

i mean realistically if you want more than the 20 round mag you can use a 30 you dont really have to go prone in cqb so its doesnt matter much

If there was the ability to put shorter barrels on this thing, why even bother running flash bangs

I started using it only cuz of lound sound that gives me more immersy

Anybody who suppresses this gun is doing it injustice

SR-61 is the god tier of weapons.

I'd love to see some AR-10s in this game

0:24 that is a heckler and koch (h&k) g3 battle rifle, not the FN (Herstal) fal, sure, there is a fn fal in the top right corner but by the way the image is put it looks more like it highlights the g3, they do look similar at a glance though

I struggle with knowing when to use AP vs JHP with the SA58... is 7.62 JHP enough against lightly armoured targets, or should I still use AP?

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷BRAZIL MENTIONED 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 PÃO DE QUEIJO POHAAAA 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 OQ KRLS É UMA MILHA 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

i love spam firing it with max volume causing irreversible hearing damage 😊

Its the only primary I use, with the scope it makes the closest this game has to a marksman rifle, popping dudes from line of sight with ease. Its low mag size does not matter as much if that first round drops the target. As swat, we are going into rough situations, unlike a beat cop, when shots are fired there are usually way more hostiles than civilians in the area.

The only acceptable gun on valley of the dolls

0:23 am I wrong what I saw that time was a psg-1 and some hk g3?

Im ur 3921st sub

arn would be cool video next

Tried it out in beta and have never gone back. It's just way too much fun to *know* that two shots will take down a suspect with a loud-ass crack that will never fail to scare the shit out of my girlfriend every time I play while she's in my room.

brazil?

"How good is the SA-58 in Ready or Not?" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/e6d_lblosLzZnnk.html Something like this.

My issue with it in this game is it never seems to drop people in 1 shot like its a fuckking 308 round it should putting dudes on their ass

The perfect rounds for this game would be 300BLK or 10mm. ...even though it will suck against body armor.

Added challenge i like with this gun is running only JHP since police rarely get AP

whenever im tired of the BS ai in this game, i switch to the sa58 bc it packs such a big punch

You didn't mention it, but you also accrue style points by using a venerated battle rifle to dispatch foes. Crackheads and criminals fear the right arm of the free world.

30hate🔥

My least favorite assault rifle. Good single fire mode but auto fire more is hell. Besides, the significant damage dealt by this rifle is too much imo and sometimes could 1 shot 1 kill when I was trying to arrest the suspects

Lol .308 in CQB is the way lol shhhh stop taking lol 😂

Ak47 and accuracy is an oxymoron

1/10 not nearly enough pic rails

Fal is stupid for law enforcement, waaaay too much penetration.
