Basic Information
This gun is only obtainable by crafting with the required Profession: Gunsmith (Small Guns). The advantages the HPFA has over the normal FN FAL is its ability to fire the whole 20 round magazine in one burst, and slightly higher single shot damage.
Background
The Fusil Automatique Léger ("Light Automatic Rifle" or FAL, nicknamed "The Right Arm of the Free World") is a self-loading, selective fire battle rifle with wooden furniture created in 1947 by the Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN).
It operates by means of a gas-operated action. The gas system is driven by a short-stroke, spring-loaded piston housed above the barrel, and the locking mechanism is what is known as a tilting breechblock. It uses 7.62mm ammunition with a 20-round magazine. During the Cold War, it was adopted by many NATO countries and it 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.
