Central GA Item Relisted! FS Fabrique Nationale FNC Para Carbine 5.56mm NATO

[palmettomoon]

Well alot of people do not have your knowledge or expertise on FN weapons and if they have a question
about what you are selling then maybe you should try to answer them with out yours or anyone elses negative
remarks.

I'm selling a rifle, not conducting a class. I doubt seriously that my explaining why it is okay to use 5.56mm ammunition in this particular rifle is going to be the factor that releases four thousand dollars from a know-it-all's wallet. It's perfectly okay to shoot 5.56mm NATO ammunition in this rifle, just like you can shoot all the 5.56mm ammunition from a Ruger Mini 14 that you can afford.

To all who've been positive about the posting - my thanks! To the trolls? Well, you probably know what I think you can do.

Palmetto! WOW......GLWS friend this is a great guy and a rifle you will likely never see again in 20+ years.

Thanks Ty. It's as fine an example I've seen since buying my first one in '96.
If it doesn't find a new home, I'll be happy to keep it.

What makes these so rare? It looks to be a beautiful rifle, just curious why there arent more of them.

They were about the most expensive military small arm ever produced. Only two countries adopted them as regular issue. Civilian versions imported as ".223 REM SPORTER" due to CGA of 1968. Chambers 5.56 MM NATO ammunition regardless of the ninny's protestations otherwise. Very low cost to Title II arm ownership since there are more sears in the U.S. than semi-auto rifles.

Man, if it were mine I'd have to be pretty desperate to sell it. Like losing the house, car, and dog desperate.
Hope that's not the case, and GLWS.

 

[palmettomoon]

Not the case thankfully. Just bored with it I guess.

Then you need to send it to have it converted to FA. I am sure you know the parts are available!
