The standard sites in the FAL could have been better but I've also shot one with a scope and that was brilliant.
I've never shot the M-14 but I've been told by guys who have they are harder to master than the FAL.
But absolute accuracy in a combat weapon isn't as important as reliability, ease of maintenance, cleaning and repairs in the field.

The FALs have their quirks but I personally have never had to clear a stoppage and I've shot thousands of rounds through one when I was I the Army.
