...after about 20 years!
I got this as an unloved century build from the old barrel of rifles in the back of a gun shop long past. It had one saving grace - a pre-ban Imbel receiver. I took everything off and prepared to operate - then live get in the way... A trip to a well known FAL smith took two years and then some to get a new bolt head spaced but once I got it back... I sat on it for a couple more. A few weeks back, I started to get serious about bringing it back to life - I had all the parts sitting around - I just had to figure what fit... It truly is a frankenFAL but it should F#ck.
BTW - the lower was a machined aluminum piece made by Kaiserwerks in California - they must have been gone for a long time.
it may see daylight on January 1st.
