Shooting DSA SA58 (FN FAL)

At the Great Falls Trap Club shooting my DSA SA58. The SA58 is modeled after the FN FAL and chambered in 7.62x51mm. My target is the center mass on a human torso silhouette at 100 yards. Standing my group was 1 ft, benched with arms supporting I was 3 inch group. Not the greatest but I'm pleased with my battle rifle. All Iron sight shooting.

3 MOA with irons is pretty damn good. I wonder what that rifle is capable of with a scope and proper bench rest.

Thanks, I'm sure rested with iron sights it could have done even better. I mounted a scope on her a 3x and unfortunately is was only a NC Star, not high quality, so I think the recoil knocked the scope off with every shot. Very frustrating lol. ended up ripping it off after wasting tons of ammo trying to get her centered.

Searching for fal videos I found yours. I used to live in great falls. Didn't go shooting while I lived there but do now alot. Your name sounds familiar. Did you go to cmr?

[justinfluegel]

I was only in Great Falls visiting a friend of mine. The range is great, and if you are ever in the area, definitely check it out.

@PanzerAngriff $1500 but I purchased it a month or two after Obama's election so everything was inflated on fears he would band assault weapons again. You can get a nice one for 1200-1400 now.

@kevinchris its a fal. it just cant be named a FAL. FN still holds the rights to the FAL name. DSA makes FAL rifles using the origional blueprints and design and simply calls it the sa58 in an homage to the austrian FAL military designation the stg58.

@justinfluegel How much did it cost?

[kevinchris]

How is that different from a FAL? Is it a different company or something?

@npconman Going for the retro look eh? Should look beautiful:-) I ended up buying DSA's full length aluminum fore-end rail. It was surprising, but it barely added ANY weight compared with the stock plastic fore-end. And its a much more stable platform for the Harris Bi-pod and other goodies once the war chest builds back up:-) It was well worth the $240ish dollars.

Sorry, I accidentally deleted my comment. I only stated that I followed what some industry pros said (im not a pro), that they wouldnt put a .308 down a barrel that is shorter than 20". So I bought a DSA SA58 with a medium profile 21" barrel and I absolutely love it. I also just took my R700 SPS Tactical w/20" bull barrel hunting. Its extremely accurate & would take care of anything within 400-500yds.

@wiley086 I ordered mine 4 months ago with a 21'' barrel. They told me one more month for the wood furniture but I should have it before the end of the year. After reading more online I'm glad I went with the 21'' barrel. :-)
