DSA SA58 Para

M14fan · January 12, 2023, 06:06 PM

Folding stock is too high to get a cheek weld and see the rear sight.unusual stock. DSA confirms it is an older stock that is no longer used for this very reason but they won't replace it. Suggestions, talker sights maybe?

Pics?

If the cost of buying/installing new sights is roughly comparable to buying the new style stock, I'd buy the new style stock rather than mess with the sights.

Will get some pics soon. Nice looking stock, just doesn't have the drop the FAL needs. As for the cost of sights, I haven't even found any that would raise the sight plane anyway.

I know this is a simple typo or auto correct and I am not poking fun at you but I cannot keep from chuckling. All I am picturing is ….

“Little low”
“High and right”
“NICE shot man!!!”
“You ever think about taking a class buddy, just sayin’”
“I don’t wanna go in the safe it’s dark in there and the AR’s all make fun of me.”

Now this gave me a nice chuckle.

Such a wide variety of FALs - even one model with the imitation Rhodesian camo from the Bush Wars.

"DSA Rifles" on Google, to see a nice selection.

I was close to ordering a DSA, but on GB I found a very discounted 100% Imbel, designated SAR-4800 (48), built by Imbel under Springfield Arms contract.

That's funny Ignition Override, I have the Springfield H&K G3 version SAR-8. I was beginning to think no one knew of Springfield's old offerings.

M14Fan, you could look up Arizona Response systems. Mark may be able to offer an idea?

If you decide to sell that stock I’m interested. My son has this exact rifle and he’s be ok with it despite its downfalls.
