Here it is from a fan of both:

1. Ergonomics: M1A hands down especially for smaller folks.

2. Scope Mounting: M1A...you can mount lower. Fal Mounting can be cheaper. Check welds better on M1A

3. Accuracy for Standard out of the box models: Tie

4. Field stripping: Fal is easier.

5. Battle toughness: The M1A is still in first line service in a real army. The FAL is not. Edge by a hair to M1A

6. Ninja Factor: FAL looks cooler
