FN FAL PARTS KIT

FN America has announced the release of 400 authentic FN FAL parts kits, all imported from Belgium and assembled from decommissioned FN FAL Model 50.00 rifles that were previously issued to the Belgian Gendarmarie.

The opportunity to purchase one of these parts kits is only available via entry in a sweepstakes that opened on November 1 and runs until Jan. 21, 2023. Winners will be chosen randomly each month and will receive the exclusive opportunity to purchase their kit via the FN eStore. Additionally, a grand prize of an FAL rifle, assembled from these parts kits, will be awarded to one lucky winner.

“The FN FAL is one of the most recognizable FN products worldwide; it is the Right Arm of the Free World,” said Chris Cole, vice president of sales and marketing for FN America. “The opportunity to offer these parts kits to collectors so that they can own a part of that legacy is something we felt compelled to do. It makes it all the more special that these were originally manufactured in Belgium for a Belgian customer.”

Put into storage in the 1980s after the Belgian Gendarmarie upgraded its service rifles, these FN FALs were rediscovered and painstakingly assembled into parts kits that can be imported into the United States for sale to enthusiasts and collectors. The parts kits include lower trigger frame, buttstock, bayonet in an accurate Belgian Gendarmarie purple frog, sling and more. Even with slight imperfections from prior-issued use, the metal components are mostly free of blemishes and pitting. The kits are being sold for the retail price of $900.

Visit the campaign’s web page to learn more about the authentic parts kits and to enter the sweepstakes. No purchase is necessary to enter, and purchases will not increase the chances of winning. Customers building a complete semi-automatic FN FAL with the parts kit must comply with ATF regulatory restrictions by sourcing U.S. domestic components for the parts not included in the kit. A skilled gunsmith is required for assembly.
