The G3 has many different stocks available actually the telescoping stock, magpul makes a stock , Spuhr , m4 style adjustable stocks as well On the subject of magazines yes the thinner aluminum magazines do dent easily however there are surplus Cetme-C magazines made of a thicker steel and I believe some German made ones too I recently ordered Cetme-C mags for $ 4.50 a peice

Nice video bro, thanks for sharing your feedback on these systems. I know you’ve got a lot of time behind each.

I went with PTR. Piles of aftermarket support for the rifle. Plus it will shoot whatever I can afford to feed it. The magazines are dirt cheap and can be found easily. Easier to clean and maintain. You don’t have to re-zero your optic every time you clean it like the Para FAL. I do love the FAL, and if things were different I would own a pile of them.

My go-to rifle is a G3 with a Rhodie camouflage paint job Bren gun sling and front sight is painted International Orange......I own everything from 0 to 400 meters .....

hard to pick I love both! old Spaniard legionair hated the cetme l and missed the old "woody". Great video!

There are tons of after market stuff for the G3. Mp5 style collapsible stocks, foldable stocks, telescopic stocks etc. Different mlok and picatinny handguards, different charging handles, mag release extensions, safety levers, scope mounts... honestly, other than swapping the actual body, I dont know what isnt swappable. My setup is a copy of the Swedish AK4D. A bigger trigger guard to facilitate winter shooting with gloves, a spuhr stock and handguard, cut off iron sights and welded on picatinny on the receiver to get a good stable zero. Some no-name vertical foregrip and bipod for when I want to lay on the range and plink for a few hours.

for many years my go to, a short gas Para Fal built by Adam762 using a nos Aussie kit.

Both are sweet!! been wanting a PTR-91 to accompany my FAL for a while now (just need the room for it LOL), price is alright on them.

I agree 100% but it's close. You need to keep in mind that DSArms makes much nicer rifles than PTR so it's not FN vs H&K. It's the same way with 5.56 rifles from both FN and H&K, the FN/FNC vs the H&K 93 it's the FNC for the win. I have owned several FN made FALs and H&K 91s over the last 30 years and love both, but the FN is much more user friendly and just a bit higher quality.

Nice ptr. Also playing Rammstein was a nice touch 👍

On the G3 the spring doesn't extend into the stock, it ends at the end cap/buffer. You can get different end caps, so can even use an M4 stock/buffer tube on it if you like.

I’d say just close the gas system almost completely and don’t worry about it. Only reason to adjust the gas system is if you want a slightly softer recoil and ejection pattern. When in doubt, close it out. 😅

G3 runs better IMO. More controlled recoil. Shoots tighter groups, the G3 is even made into DMR. You don’t really see that with the FAL.

Love my PTR

I love my PTR 91 & PTR 9CT.

Where you get that muzzle break flash hider? for the Ptr?

How is your g3 recoiling so little, what is the setup on it?

Yeah this wasn't biased at all..... Its not like the G3 has aftermarket parts like the Spuhr stock (which is a glorified AR buffer tube stock), buffer tube adapters, Magpul PRS-2 stock which is pretty much a clone of the PSG-1 stock and a collapsing stock to compare to the folding FAL Para variant. There's even an ACR stock adapter if that's your thing. You can get extended selector levers and even entirely different trigger housings with grip modules. Lets talk about magazines: You complained that the Aluminum mags dent too easily. This is a complaint that I see with pretty much every Aluminum magazine in the hands of a Chimp. Well, as it turns out, there are a hell of a lot of steel G3 mags still floating around out there and are very affordable compared to FAL surplus mags. If polymer is your thing, Thermold makes G3 mags and they're quite good. I was skeptical about em but bought 3 and like em. Tough compared to most Thermolds but the price is consistent with ruggedness. Both guns have pretty equal aftermarket if you do even a little bit of digging. HK parts net is a gold mine in this regard.

I see a Rhodie FN on the wall complete with compensator at Grenade sights

How many rounds do you have through the SA58? Any parts breakage’s? I think Tim from Military Arms Channel is pretty fair minded and reasonable and he was saying he owns both the SA58 and the vintage FNH Belgian FAL’s and that the SA58 has malfunctioned on him some. It would be nice if DSA was as high of quality as a real FNH FAL but I highly doubt that is true. FAL Files people should petition FNH to make a FAL again like they are doing with the High Power clone they just put on the market. I think the ergonomics of the SCAR 17 kind of suck and like the way FALs feel much better-I’d pick a FAL over a SCAR even for similar money just wish the materials and manufacturing quality was there because I doubt most companies have as high of standards as FNH, CZ, or H&K.

Man. Don't know if you actually like Rammstein but if you if you haven't seen them. I highly highly recommend seeing them if they come back to the country

What chest rig is that ?

Reise Reise !

The FAL guy is bias to the FAL and doesn’t know G3 well. Mags are cheap and durable. Tons of aftermarket for everything. More inherent accuracy in G3. Shoots ANY ammo without adjusting. Also parts are cheap and available

Shit just got serious

The answer is obvious: buy both. They're both classics!

why have the video you already made up your mind

German precision but Ptr is American and the g3 style of rifle was designed in Spain by German engineers then Hk started production lol
