The Spanish G3 is the base for the FAL, before the spain took the model for production it was the germans. With the end of the second world war the embargos against germany forbid them to manufactor firearms, so the company and its engineers/scientists moved to spain and started CETME. CETME created the G3, later the paton was sold and the FAL was started. The G3 and FAL are almost exactly the same with parts that are interchangeable.
