Are there any commerically availabe 16 inch barrel FAL paratrooper rifles? The only one I found was by DSA, however is 2 grand compared to the other $1000 basic FAL rifles. Or do I have to buy a FAL and attach a paratrooper stock myself?

You could always comb gunbroker for a 50.63 if you have ~$4k to spend.
Or be a poorfag and make the mistake of buying a Century.
>>31188129

I saved this copypasta for when I get a job and can build a FAL:
Put your socks on bucko, because I'm giving you the down low.
FOR THE MECHANICALLY UNGIFTED:
You have very few options for a ready made FAL! The only factories on Earth still producing FALs for the civilian market are located in Illinois and belong to DSArms, who produce their rifles entirely here in the USA.
Kinda neat, right?
The downside to DSA rifles is the 1:10 twist rate (really not that big of a deal) as opposed to the NATO spec 1:12, and their price (if you are a poorfag), since their fully-decked models hover right around $1.5K.
In addition to DSA, there are a few other companies on the US that at one point in time made FALs, typically from parts kits, that are still floating around on the used market. They are Enterprise (avoid), Century (avoid), and IAI (M444, decent). These can be pretty hit or miss, but the upside is that you get military parts in your raifu. Now that's real fuckin' NeATO.
FOR THOSE OF US WHO LIKE A CHALLENGE:
Build one, dammit.
