ParaFAL
The ParaFAL 7,62mm M964 A1 MD1 is a 7.62×51mm NATO battle rifle which is a lighter-weight modification of the 30-year-old Brazilian-licensed and built FN FAL. Existing FALs can be converted to the more modern ParaFAL specification by the Brazilian company IMBEL with a low-cost kit of parts. Amongst the changes is a shorter barrel, and replacement of aluminium by high-impact polymer parts.
The ParaFAL is increasingly used by the military police and some units of the Brazilian Army.
In 2009 IMBEL received the order to produce the ParaFAL to replace the FAL as the standard weapon while the IMBEL MD97-A2 assault rifle is in development.
