I've fired a selective-fire metric FAL on several occasions and even with my best technique, a three-round burst on a standard silhouette at 25 yards was first round center chest, second round into the berm a couple of feet over his head, third round somewhere in low Earth orbit. However, when the owner got hold of an old Rhodesian muzzle brake, everything changed. We could dump 5, 6, even 7 round bursts and keep all the hits in the chest of the silhouette at 25 yards. A lot of fun to be sure! Sadly the owner of that rifle got an offer he couldn't pass up from another collector, the FAL changed hands, and I haven't had access to it for years. Great memories, though.

Don’t need full auto when you can punch through brick walls.

Seems weird until you bring up the full power cartridges, which definitely would make full auto difficult to keep on target.

The British army did not believe in "spray and Pray". it was aimed shots. The SLR was a great rifle I loved it.

Used the SLR throughout my British Army service, was a great rifle, the so called kick is exaggerated, we even fired it at small 100 metre pipe ranges in Northern Ireland, without any problems. The 7.62 mm Calibre was a real man stopper, the problem was ammunition, just 4 magazines each of 20 rounds weighed so much, that along with two 81 mm mortar rounds, a 200 round GPMG belt along with smoke grenades, rations etc made the load out for each Infantryman, way too heavy! Which is why my knees and back are f*cked! 😐 But the rifle itself was excellent, certainly better than what replaced it! 😆 🤣

The SLR, or L1A1 was incapable of firing full automatic. Unless you happened to have been shown where on the trigger sear to fit the matchstick.
And every single infantryman was absolutely instructed how to commit this illegal modification- along with advice, like, don't get caught, don't ever do this, you won't ever need to do this, but just in case.....

As a serviceman myself I can tell you that a regular soldier is taught to almost always fire in semiautomatic. And the time I fired in full auto on a range to test the accuracy… no way you hit targets consecutively beyond 50 m.
COD taught us wrong. Unless you have arms like a bodybuilder.

Loved that weapon. Always felt safe with it

Full auto is not appropriate most of the time. It just wastes ammo. Even when providing suppression fire, a squad can accomplish that with semi.

Why would you need full auto on an infantry rifle? It's for taking selectively targeted shots, not emptying your magazine into the air like you're at an Afghan wedding. Plus every platoon also carries light machine guns, and every company has heavy machine guns, which are a damn sight more accurate than a hand-held rifle on auto.

Heard stories of some Brits in the Falklands dropping their L1s for Argie FALs because they wanted that full auto for suppressing fire capability.

Covering fire doesn't always need to be accurate. Sometimes, there's a need to achieve fire superiority, which can be difficult with semi-automatic weapons.

In other words they didn’t trust 18 year old private Tommy Atkins not to slap the thing on full auto, and not hit Jack, Berg, or Alan.

As much as I love the L1A1, I'll always lament the fact the the British Army adopted it instead of the EM-2.

Falklands vets told me the 7.62 ammo meant they could pick off the stones one by one from the walls the argies were sheltering behind!

A friend of mine who used the SLR said a matchstick on the sear would turn it full auto.

Also used by Indian Army. It remained the service rifle for Indian armed forces for several decades. My Dad when enlisted then they first got this rifle for some years then INSAS came. But old school soldiers still loves it and trusts it more.

It was well recorded that troops used to jam a matchstick in the trigger mechanism, during fibua to make it full auto

It was also used in Vietnam by Australian troops.
