Fn Fal

Post by grayfox »

Picked up a argentina Fn Fal from the wife of my friend that passed away. She needed some cash and no dealer would give her fair market. I don't need another rifle, but sometimes you do what you have to do. At least I have another gun that he owned.

grayfox,

As you know I've been down in Florida for a show and a visit with Norm, back home now like a dummy, should have stayed till it warmed up here, but wife said to come home, you know the drill...... ::).

Nice looking FN/FAL, its metric right, mine is L1A1 [inch] but it will take both the metric and inch mags. You did a good thing buying that from your late friends wife, nice move on your part my friend.

nice pickup of that Fal grayfox, and nice gesture for a friend in need.

only real place to pickup a good Fal mount is either DSA or GunPartsGuy (James), the DSA is more expensive but very good and the mount James at GunPartsGuy has is less costly by about half but very good also.

If you use James at GPG, tell him Andra' sent you! ;D
He's a great guy to deal with for everything FAL.

Hey Norm, I see you are at the sks boards also, howdy!
