The term "battle rifle" is a colloquialism that is generally used to refer to rifles firing a full caliber cartridge and generally are select fire. After WWII, many nations decided to forego intermediate rounds in favor of heavy hitting, powerful fully automatic long arms that lasted until intermediate cartridges seized the day. In this video, we take a look at 5 that we consider the best.
Guns in this video:
FN FAL
SIG 510
H&K G3
SCAR 17
M14

I have a G3 that I love but I do have experience with the FAL. Both great guns. Both heavy!
Steven Kennedy
I just picked up a Cetme.

You guys have sidelined the one of the world AK47-56 which was used in all the Wars after Second World War. This shows your channel is a biased channel.
Michael Dinneweth
2 battle rifles from belgium i did serve 39 years ago and this was my weapon along with the vingeron smg fn herstal makes awesome weapons and i also love the ar scar 17 deadly like the fn fal .
Tasos Rizos
your G3 is the same with the original.... i know that weapon really well cause my country uses it in our millitary.... and every one knows how to clean it in 3 minutes :) ... nice rifle but when the burrel gets hot you need lots of luck to actually hit somthing.... and when i say hot i ment hot as hell not just normal hot... try to shot 3 magazines on fully auto and then try to shot 1 by 1 and you gonna see :)
Brandon Walter
Let's be honest still fn fal leader of battle rifles.
Duane Pigden
I trained on the FN, loved it. We had two versions. The semi auto C1 and the full auto C2. The C2 was the squad replacement for the Bren.

5:03 are you using a original k98 sling on a fal?
Lucas Gomes
Where is de ak47 or ak74?
David Henderson
I am from the UK and used the FN. FAL. ie. SLR in action in Aden 1965. Yea I'm an old guy, but when the sh1t hits the fan it will pump out the rounds magazine after magazine. On testing on open ground in seriously high temperatures it proves to be very accurate firing on semi auto with iron sights. Great gun, served me well in my time of serious need.

The alleged winter trigger is the trigger to shoot grenades in reality.

Battle rifles punch assault rifles in the mouth lol

Fuck, I love Battle Rifles.
dschledermann
We had the G3 in the Danish army when I served back in the 90's. The rifles were old and worn out and unreliable as f**k. In the late 90's they were replaced with the Diemaco C7.

FN makes great products, but no way would IU pay $50.00 or more for one SCAR magazine-ridiculous-John in Texas
danrathcke
In 1980 when i was in the army, i got the G3..piece og shit
MrViking
I have used the G3 extensively over many years in the Norwegian Army. First as a conscript in the early 90s, then as a reservist for about 20 years, until I served 3,5 years in the Home Guard QRF with the newer HK 416 before I retired in 2014. I have also tried the FN-FAL. Out of these three, I liked the FAL the most. The 7,62 round gives it a kick I really like and it has a tighter feel than the G3. The G3 is extremely solid, though. Sand, snow, or water, it still shoots great. The 416 is a different rifle than these two oldies. Much more accurate, but way more complicated. Yet I might buy the civilian 416 someday. $3000 is quite expensive, though. Unfortunately, G3s and FN-FALs are not for sale in Norway.
supermegadidi
I would go for the G3 all day long. Served as a conscript in 1997 and had a wooden version from 1959 that shot very accurate. Later I got the G36. That was better during an exercise as it was lighter and you could carry it like a rucksack, but it was like a toy compared to the G3

there are better battle rifles but ok
Randy Arellanes
Why didn't you mention the hk91 308, this rifle is currently being used in battle in. the Ukraine . It can go semi or full auto it comes with a 50 round barrel clip. You can throw this rifle off a cliff go down to get it and it will be ready for combat even in water , snow ,mud it doesn't matter nothing can stop these guns.

Every rifle video is incomplete without mention of Ak 47!!
Brandon Walter
Ak47 can't comparable agains't this models 7.62x39mm and 7.62x51mm are not the same.
Rattles
is no one going to mention that because an AK fires a 7.62x39 Russian it is considered a full-length cartridge? it may just be because I'm a Russian fanboy but an SKS, AKM/AK-47, or even an AK-15 would have been very nice rifles to put on the list. too many western rifles, not enough love for Asian or Slavic weapons.
Rattles
@John I have noticed my woes. the 7.62x39 Russian is an intermediate cartrige. a better example of a Russian battle rifle would be Fedorov Avtomat, firing a 6.5 Arisaka or the SVT-40, firing a powerful 7.62x54mmR. and for Asian battle rifles, there is always the Type 4 rifle, firing the 7.7x58 Arisaka. There are a few rifles of Slavic and Asian production that could have med it onto the list.

“Low recoil and very accurate” clasping the gun for dear life
Manuel Yáñez Aguilar
To be honest why not a competition between the G3 and the FAL?
Brandon Walter
Fn fal have bolt release and fast fire rate g3 have slow fire rate and little bit better recoil control but l would say fn-fal because it is expensive and stronger can shoot from half bit more range.
Peter Koning
Only know the FAL and love it !!

What about the GRYF-13

The A2 grip on that SCAR looks soooo stupid lol, I can't believe they actually make them like that.

G3 the most lovely gun in middle East especially in Iran and Iraq

1968 I carried an M14 US ARMY. Been shooting since I was 8 yrs old. Most accurate weapon I ever used. It was not good for jungles and was heavy, ammo also. Also it didn't jam as easy as the M16.
David Mason
F.a.l : fuckin , awesome , longarm
Jamie Czerwinski
The fal is your pal

I have affectionately name my select fire M-14, Beast Mode.
Andrew Eldritch
To make it more "era correct" shoulda included the Beretta BM-59 and AR-10 family instead of the Scar ... no one is perfect I guess ... lol
George
I got to fire an M-14 a few years ago at the NRA Range in Fairfax, VA and I was impressed. The recoil was not as severe as I expected .... though that was on semi. But in the field I can imagine the issues with the weight of it and the ammo being an issue for regular infantry. Still, I can see how it was use in some sniper applications as well as for the Squad Designated Marksman role. That 7.62 will carry out and deliver a punch
The FAL - a buddy of mine got a Para model from DSA a while back.
Gotta be honest ...... I was UNIMPRESSED.
No doubt it is a tough and durable beast. But the stock sights on the Para model are atrocious in my opinion. I don't see how an regular infantryman/paratrooper could accurately engage targets at even 100 yards, much less on out to 200 or 300.
Just my opinion

Aesthetics always first

I thought FN was Belgian. Not swiss
TheNic OfTime
The sig is beautiful fuck everyone who says otherwise
Nobr4in3r
Is there someone who thinks the FAL is better than the G3?
Please tell me why.
I'm not trying to get into a fan battle here, I just heard from a lot of H&K fanboys why the G3 is the bestest and I'd like to hear some arguments from the other side :)
Personally, I don't have a favourite.
Todd Dupler
I’m really surprised you didn’t include the most prolific battle rifle ever created ... The AK-47
Todd Dupler
@Mihajlo - Define “Battle Rifle”
Mihajlo
Not a battle rifle.
William Ster
Spanish CETME C is greater than the FAL and G3. The HK G3 was after the CETME C and claimed to be an improved rifle yet the CETME C can interchange and use the Majority of G3 parts but the G3 cant not do the same with the CETME C
rlmz00
Aesthetics is top priority for me. Too many good looking weapons to use an ugly one.

guys isnt FAL paraFAL?

I have Tbe G3 a Great 👍🏽 riffle I love it 💯
dean morgan
Hard to choose between authentic H&K91 or FN FAL, so I have BOTH!
João Silva
My grandfather was in the Portuguese Overseas war in the 60s and he shot both G3 and FN FAL. He says both are terrific rifles, but he prefers the FAL
Rusty
Used a (A)G3 in the Norwegian Army and loved it !

M14 made the top 5 list over the Garand? Are you serious ?
Writing
According to Bloke on the Range, the "winter trigger" isn't actually a winter trigger at all, but a rifle grenade trigger, so that your finger isn't inside the trigger guard to get broken when the rifle recoils massively after firing a rifle grenade.

The G3 handles mud much better than the FAL.
Lorenzo Bruschetta
I would have mentioned the M16 A4 instead of the Sig.
I mean, i know those are very different cartridges, and Stg is very accurate but that’s the end.
Stg has no field history, finish is very delicate, the system is generally not friendly with dust, it’s a bulky and heavy gun, bipod is too high cause the magazine is too long to lay flat on the ground fatiguing shooter over long prone sessions, ergonomics are far from great.
So i would have gone with M16A4 over Sth imho

This is the 1% ers list of guns

Not sure the M14 should be contraversial. Phenomenal rifle
Jasip
How can you not include the AK in top 5 battle rifles?
Jasip
@John ah okay, that make sense. As a soldier I used both 7,62x39 and the 7,62x51, I definitely prefer the intermediate one.
Jasip
@John but can you tell me The difference between a so called battle riffle, and a assault riffle?
Charles Pfaff
Used the M-14 onboard ship (ugh).We should of picked the FAL IMHO.

I love my CETME, even if it weighs as much as a Volkswagen

G3 or FAL...that's like asking which potato is better for making mashed potatoes red potatoes or russets. Either way you get something tasty

Aesthetics wise the G3 just takes the cake.

What about the AR-10?????
Randy Stockton
The M-14 i think it's the best. The 10 yr. service was politically dont get me wrong i love AR'S i own 3 but pass 400 yards u really need a little more power.The only reason i don't own one is because they cost so much 1600 hundread dollars, give me a break just to dam high...but i love AR'S. The FAL was almost our military rifle but that's another story, also politically...

Love the scar. But where is the AK-47
not nine
@James Yates yeah battle rifles typically mean a full sized cartridge, so like an svt or avs 36 which both use 7.62x54r instead of the shorter 7.62x39 the ak uses
James Yates
Really. I thought it was. My bad
not nine
Not a battle rifle

g3 cause it look's like mp5's big daddy
