12(5) Prohib. I've seen some live ones go from 350 to 800 on the exchange forums.
I wouldn't say this is the wrong place to post. The FAL is a battle rifle.
Unless you have your 12-5 prohibited licence it won't matter how much they cost, caue you're not getting one. That said, depending on the condition and country of origin, they can go from $250 to $1500

LFOD and Speckfire, you're both right.
The rust is no longer there - the photo is a couple of years old.
That particular gun spent a decade rolled up in a throw rug on a bare, damp, concrete basement floor with about a dozen other guns. Unbelievably, the only gun that was toast was a P17 that became a mass of rust. The sacrifical foot on the FAL was the only other damage.
There is a God after all.

your dad is specifically talking about the FN C1A1 , many of us swear by it too ..... IIRC , the older FN FAL was in service over 80 countries , some still in service today, 11 countries produced many variations , divided into two catagory "inch" and " metric" . canada was the first to produce the inch pattern version FN C1 in 1956 , since it was replace by the C7 (M16) in 1986 , most has been destroyed
so yeah, they are pretty rare ..... heres a pic from kevin adams library. aint she a beaut?

I remember the old days of the C1 , C2 . The CF 'issue' ones for sale here and there are of the 8 'lima' series and were bought, I believe, for and by the OPP and these are the ones you will find for sale, rarely.
I remember in our armoury seeing FN C1 , C2 stamped from the 1950's to the 1960's.......Thinking they were antiques

I had one pointed at me in the Quito Airport back in 84, I didn't really like it at that moment. Also amusing, was to see another belligerent soldier being an ####### and "toughguy" with his magazine plate on backwards.
