“This rifle has been more widely used by armed forces than any other rifle in history. It's a reliable assault weapon for any terrain or tactical situation.”
The FN FAL is a small gun in Fallout 2.
Characteristics
The FAL is a top-notch assault rifle. Although it lacks the range of the AK-112, a burst from the FAL will actually deal damage, unlike AK AP ammo without an AP fix patch, or AK JHP ammo with a fix patch, which both won't. The 7.62mm rounds it uses are pretty rare, though, so burst at your own discretion.
Variants
- FN FAL HPFA
- FN FAL (Night Sight)
Locations
- The survival gear locker store in Gecko stocks this weapon, as well as ammo. The Merchant in Downtown New California Republic also stocks large amounts of ammo, as well as the superior FN FAL HPFA.
- Most of the Hubologists in combat armor carry either one of these, or a combat shotgun.
- A single Enclave soldier at Navarro carries one.
- Male raiders in the mercenaries' cave all carry these. The raider commanders carry AK-112's.
Notes
- Certain NPCs can add a thermal imager, resulting in a marginally superior weapon. The thermal image eliminates the accuracy penalties incurred due to darkness.
Behind the scenes
- The FN FAL is a battle rifle designed by Belgian company Fabrique Nationale (FN prefix) after World War II.
