Right now, I've got 2 problem guns I'm thinking of trading off...
#1...(post-ban) Hesse, A-1 upper & stock, Bushmaster 14.5" HBAR w/pinned AK brake.
#2...(pre-ban) E.A., A-1 upper(no forward assist or brass deflector)
11.5" HBAR w/pinned 5.5" flashhider, collapsible CAR stock. (also has barely noticable small 1/4"long crack at bottom of mag well)(did this myself...dumbass I am)
Both these guns have been giving me trouble for some time now,(cycling & extracting) and I'm ready to move on to something different...
I've got 2 other AR's that run 100%...
#1...Bushmaster 20" A-2 "out of the box"
#2...20" Colt barreled "tackdriver" gun I built onto an Olympic lower...
Do I keep screwing with my 2 problem guns?... OR...Do I get rid of them, and get a nice .308 FAL.
Right now I have nothing in .308 cal...
I know NOTHING about the FAL's & need a few pointers, and what to look out for...
Keep in mind, Murphy's law follows me EVERYWHERE!!, I ALWAYS run into problems when I get into a gun I'm not familiar with...
I'm looking for the "Colt" or "Bushmaster" equivalent in a FAL...
Don't try to talk me into an AR-10 either, I've seen too many mixed opinions on them...
My dealer probably has 20 or 30 FAL's in stock, in every configuration & price possible...
I don't know what to look for...
Input anyone ???
