Belgian carbine, developed by FN Herstal and fitted for the 5.56.

HistoryEdit

The CAL (Standing for Carabine Automatique Legere) resembled the FN FAL, FN Herstal's popular battle rifle, but was a market flop, only selling less than 30'000. It did however, lead on to creating the FN FNC.

The CAL had a three-round selector system, which consisted of Safe, Semi and Three-round Burst.
