    Hindered by an overbearing disdain of the US
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2014*

The book is good, but the author is constantly finding ways to bring the US military into a book about a Belgian weapon in a negative light, often in places where it's simply unnecessary.In the beginning, the author lashes out at American military hierarchy for demanding the 7.62 x 51mm round, whining that the British .280 cartridge was a better choice for the NATO alliance. He later goes on to praise the 7.62mm NATO round for it's superior penetration compared to the Soviet 7.62 x 39mm round and points out that the 7.62 NATO has a greater effective range, making it useful in arid or mountainous environments. Even the relatively accurate claim that the round isn't suited for individual automatic weapons is undermined by multiple examples later on. The contradictory attitude is frustrating, not in the least because it forces an irrational and irrelevant opinion about the US on a supposedly objective book.Besides this fundamental issue, the author is constantly cherry-picking different engagements that have nothing remotely in common besides the fact that there was a gunfight and comparing them on a tactical level, the author being more intent on proving that the infantry forces of the UK and her former Commonwealth were superior to their American counterparts than of anything really telling of the rifles capability. The sad part is the author degrades even this basic argument due to his childish lack of context.Finally, the image showing an array of NATO rifles is erroneously labeled as containing a 5.56mm AR-15. It's an AR-10 bro, clearly identified by the strengthened lower receiver and magazine size in proportion to everything else.

    A good general history of the FAL
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2014*

A good general history of the FAL. Obviously it is not as detailed as R. Blake Steven's magnum opus, but it manages to cover most of the important material, such as differences between metric and inch models, major variations, reliability, sand cuts, scope mounting, etc. Where Mr. Cashner excels in his descriptions of how the FAL is used tactically within the infantry squad and platoon. His descriptions of the Rhodesian and Israeli employment of this system are particularly good. His account of how the FALO heavy barreled version, which was used as a squad automatic weapon by several armies, could be effective in the hands of well-trained troops runs counter to almost all other accounts of this weapon, but the detail into which he goes showing just how it could be effective is convincing. (It had better, since the Marine's new Infantry Automatic Rifle works is basically a 5.56mm equivalent.)
