Hey everyone,I want to get a STG-58 / FN FAL copy.I perfer a high quailty piece......therefore I want to stay way from the parts guns/kits.I don't need a pre-ban with thread barrel, bayonet lug , ect ect. If I did ....My compulsiveness would force me to get a top notch real FN FAL. But I don't have the 4k+ for it.I don't want a piece a junk where I wasted 400- 700 on either.So, I am figuring 1000-1200 for a nice American made post ban STG-58 with muzzle break, carry handle, lighting cuts, and bi-pods. So heres what I think I narrowed it down either:1. Entrepise Arms- Government Model: or2. DSA's STG58AWhich one should I go with?

    DSA's SA58 FAL. Hands Down.Go to www.dsarms.com and check out the stats versus those of Enterprise. My understanding is that Enterprise actually got into trouble a little while ago for lying about the specs on their receivers. Something about the metalurgy not being what they said it was.Anyhow, keep in mind that the STG-58 series are all "rebuilds" made from parts. The DSA series of STG-58's are the best, but go with the SA58 series if you want to get a kick *, 100% brand new, American made FAL.There are a few up for auction as we speak.

    What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 when referring to STG/FAL receivers?

    Just the length of the "lightning cut". It's purely cosmetic and does not effect the firing in any way.
