How much do "REAL" FNFAL rifles go for?

I saw one on Gunbroker for under $3000. Is that normal? That's about half of what I would think they cost. I thought the AC556 was one of the only $3000 and under F/A's around?

A quick search turned up only one one transferable FN FAL, a Paratrooper for $8,000.

FNC's, which are more common, IIRC, are going for $3900 - 5000.

If you found a transferable FN FAL for $3000, sounds like a deal.

Sounds more like someone trying to get a premium for a pre-ban.

Not all FN FALs were FA. Most are semi-auto only, though quite a few variants were FA. This was probably a semi-auto variant.
It could also have been one of the G series guns.
