I bought my first MBR a couple weeks ago, It's a Enterprise Arms Fal 7.62. Recoil isn't bad at all, I installed a buffer, but have read that they can be a cause of FTE which I have been having trouble with, but considering the rifle is almost new I'll give it a while to decide about the buffer. I'm very satisfied with my decision and would recommend it to anyone. I have shot H&K and as Izzy said the recoil is a little harsh, replacement stocks and buffers might help, they are fine rifles though and I wouldn't kick one out of my gun safe.

+1 for the M1A, A little heavier and more expensive, but a fine rifle, actually I was looking for one around here but couldn't find one used, so settled on the FAL
