I found this particular gun in [[Ultimate Force]] and it seems to have the hand-guard of a Romat, but the barrel and flash hider of an LAR. Is it more likely (or even possible) that this is an LAR with Romat hand-guard, or LAR with Romat barrel? In the same episode, what appears to be a gun with the hand-guard of an LAR but the barrel of a Romat is also seen, suggesting they traded parts for some reason.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:07, 4 April 2011 (CDT)

What is a 50.50

On the page for District 9 it lists the specific FAL variant as a 50.50. This is not mentioned on this page, and I can't seem to find it online. Is this a misprint, or if not does anyone have any more information about it?--Commando552 00:42, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

It is a mistype on the section title - The title is meant to read FAL 50-00, which it states so on the gun thumbnail. I've changed it, however I have to say I think the gun is actually an LAR, not a FAL 50-00. StanTheMan 03:29, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Actually it's only HALF of a FAL, thus the 50/50 remark! LOL! mpm
And Stan the man is right. It looks to be a FAL Light Automatic Rifle, not a 50.00 MoviePropMaster2008
Thanks guys, wondered why I had no idea what the hell it was. I actually think that it is one of the early South African R1s that were Belgian made. Here is a pic of one for reference: http://www.saaaca.org.za/links/SIG/fal/PDC_0057.jpg. Commando552 15:47, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Looks like we have a winner! Thanks! Now I have to replace the original LAR fore arm furniture and put the 50.00 forearm on it and 'build up' an R1 look a like for that page. Arghhh. The work never ends ;) MoviePropMaster2008 17:20, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
Doomed you are, Mastah! ;D StanTheMan 17:53, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

FAL and FNC

Based on their apparent similarities, are some components (specifically, stocks) interchangable between the FN FNC and FN FAL? For example, could one attach a FAL 50.00 stock to an FNC? MrOshimida27 19:30, 28 March 2011 (CDT)

LAR/Romat parts swapping.

I found this particular gun in Ultimate Force and it seems to have the hand-guard of a Romat, but the barrel and flash hider of an LAR. Is it more likely (or even possible) that this is an LAR with Romat hand-guard, or LAR with Romat barrel? Can all FAL variants (assuming they are both metric/imperial) swap parts with one another? In the same episode, what appears to be a gun with the hand-guard of an LAR but the barrel of a Romat is also seen, suggesting they traded parts for some reason. --commando552 16:07, 4 April 2011 (CDT)
