This Portuguese-made FMP XG3S is a pre-ban, G3-pattern semi-automatic rifle in .308 Win with a receiver rollmarked 5/89. It features an 18-inch barrel with G3-type slotted flash hider, stamped-steel receiver, and olive-green polymer furniture. It comes equipped with an HK-type claw mount, Bushnell Sportview 3-9x32mm scope, and four 20-round G3-pattern magazines: two HK-stamped (4/72 and 12/72), one FMP-stamped (12/79), and one marked “G3 9/65” with NSN 1005-12-127-7057 and no visible maker stamp.
Pre-1989 import association, semi-only lower with S/F legends, and a button magazine release underscore the correct import-era configuration. Matching partial number "063" appears on the receiver and rear-tang bushing, and the rifle retains the classic diopter iron sights and forward charging handle configuration. This example presents as a well-kept, collectible FMP import with desirable extras.

Manufactured in Portugal by FMP, this XG3S is rollmarked "XG3S FMP" with month/year "5/89" and is associated with pre-1989 import configuration. It uses the roller-delayed blowback system in a semi-automatic format and is built on a stamped-steel receiver with a two-position, semi-only lower marked S/F in white/red.
The rifle retains the classic G3 sighting system, pairing a hooded front post with a rotary diopter rear drum for precise elevation and windage indexing. Controls include a forward charging handle with ribbed sleeve and a button magazine release. The muzzle wears a G3-type slotted flash hider, and the barrel measures 18 inches.
Olive-green polymer furniture consists of a fixed stock with integral sling loop and ribbed buttplate, a matching pistol grip, and a wide (“tropical”) G3 polymer handguard with bipod-cut grooves along the lower sides and visible heat-shield rivets.
Included accessories add practical value: an HK-type claw receiver mount with rings and a Bushnell Sportview 3-9x32mm scope are installed, and an olive web sling is provided. Four 20-round G3-pattern magazines accompany the rifle: two HK-stamped (4/72, 12/72), one FMP-stamped (12/79), and one marked “G3 9/65” with NSN 1005-12-127-7057 and no visible maker stamp.
