How to Improve Your Trigger Finger With FAL

The FN FAL is a Belgian-made, self-loading military rifle that has been used by more than 90 countries. Its name stands for "Fabrique Nationale de Herstal," the manufacturer, and "Fusil Automatique Leger," which means "light automatic rifle" in English. The rifle is featured in Activision's "Call of Duty" video game franchise. The FAL is available in "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" and "Call of Duty: Black Ops," and is set apart from other guns found in the game by being one of the only semiautomatic assault rifles. The single-fire nature of the trigger may be difficult to master, but there are a few methods to improve your performance.

Instructions

- 1
  Set up a custom offline match using one to three enemies set on low difficulty. The most effective strategy with the FAL is not to fire in rapid succession, but to use good accuracy. The FAL is effective at medium to long range and will kill an enemy with a maximum of three shots, regardless of character-boosting perks. On low difficulty, the enemies will take their time in open areas, allowing you to carefully aim and time your shots.
- 2
  Equip the "Stopping Power" perk if you are playing "Modern Warfare 2." This will increase your bullet damage, making a head shot with the FAL an instant kill. It will also mean that two body hits will usually kill a target, allowing you more time to aim your shots and less need for frantic rapid-fire.
  
  In "Black Ops," the "Hardened" perk will increase bullet penetration through light cover but won't increase bullet damage. However, "Hardened Pro" will reduce your flinching when you are shot, making it easier to aim.

  Keep the trigger partially depressed. If using an Xbox 360 controller or the R2 button on the PlayStation controller, you can keep the button slightly pressed while the FAL is equipped to shave time off your firing.
