I picked up a factory sbr dsa osw 11". The gun came with a tubular/extending side folding stock. I just had the snow camo removed and cerakoted it burnt bronze. I also had a fixed stock lower coated the same color. Can i use the f/a fire control group? Or is there another issue, besides the obvious of a useless 3rd position. Attached File Attached File |
| Without the safety sear it will not fire on auto. Without the cutouts for the sear in the receiver and ejector block, one cannot be installed. IIRC, it will fire in the third position but the hammer will follow the BCG if you hold down the trigger. This can potentially cause an OOB discharge. |

This is the answer. If you know a competent welder, just have him add a blob on the existing selector in the right place and file to fit. I have never seen an OOB with the selector in FA and I have seen plenty of folks accidentally flip the selector past the semi position at my yearly FAL matches. They just get to pull the handle a lot and leave lots of live ammo lying around...great fun! |

This usually means someone has gone to the trouble of welding a blob into the slot in the selector. Without that blob, FALs will exhibit hammer-follow. |
