A Fal can be have for $700 if you shop around. You'll never find an M14 semi automatic clone for that cheap unless you look outside the US to countries that allow Norinco imports.
In the deserts of Egypt the Galil wasn't all that much more reliable than the Fal is, which works fine for many desert based countries that used them for decades and those working in that theatre. The idea the Fal would quit working in the desert is over exaggerated at best.
One of the best things about the Fal is the adjustable gas valve, that you can set to work at higher pressures when you got alot of dirt build up, that would leave the M14 based rifles blocked. You can also lower the pressure so not to shoot your brass so far.
I personally would go with the DS Arms para with the folding buttstock. Would be good for getting game for the table while helps with some of the weight and length problems.
