That SLR looks slick with the L4 mag, and I'm glad that it's on a proper receiver (not a Type 3).

Just picked this one up from another member and stuck a TA648 on it to see how it feels.

Anyone ever hunt with a FAL?
|
|
|
[#23]
Yes, I used to deer hunt in the 90's with the FAL.
Once I mounted a scope on an SAR-48 Izzy HB and killed a white tail with it. Used some kind of soft point 150 gr bullet. About 80 yds. broadside, right behind the right shoulder. Clean hole through a rib on each side, no bullet recovered. Ran about 20 yds. All contents of rib cage, heart, lungs etc. were turned to mush. Deer was DRT. |

@TimJ
Very nice. I recall you posting that one. How do you like the MMC mount? Any issues with it holding zero, or with durability? Any idea how much weight it adds? Seems like it could be a good option to mount a scope but save weight, and I wonder how much lower the rail sits compared to a DSA mount (could be good, potentially, for use with an ACOG on a QD mount). It also looks like it makes disassembly and reassembly much easier compared to something like a DSA mount. It's definitely a good-looking rifle. |

View Quote thanks for the kind words! the scope mount is attached via 4 screws and is rock solid, unfortunately it's no longer made. I like it because you can access the inside of the receiver without losing zero. it sits just a tad higher than the DSA mount. I called MMC years ago to see if they had any in the shop but they didn't..... |

I'm liking the natural finish wear that's been developing due to use on the Parkerized finish, though. I took this pic for a submission to the Brownell's Sunday Gun Day contest. Also did it with my Hi Power. I took six pictures, one pair with the piston removed so it can be in a free State configuration, one pair with a blocked magazine and mag lock, and one pair with a blocked magazine and mag block with a piece welded on to block the mag catch pivot screw. One pic in each pair with an extra mag, and one with my Hi Power. I didn't like how the detachable mag ones came out, though. The ones below have the magazine lock and blocked mag. What do y'all think? https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50433988682_c948a2330d_b.jpg With the Hi Power: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50433988617_ae8f6d1dd2_b.jpg View Quote @bigstick61 Same rifle just changed paint up over the last 2 years. Rhodie colors are the most current. Do it man, it's hard to mess up paint jobs. Elbow grease and some paint stripper and your back to square one. Mark over at Arizona Response sells an awesome and accurate Rhodesian paint kit. Both pics look great, I'm partial to the one with the High Power though. Good to see another Fal user in Cali. I used to live there and know exactly what your going through. |

If I edited the post above it's more than likely because I suck at typing. If I didn't, I was either in too big of a hurry or just missed it.
