Hey guys I am looking for someone that can help me out on a build I want to do on a FAL.  I know, I know it ain't an AR but I have those now I this.  Can't have too many rifles anyway right?

Anyone here have experience do one or know of anyone that does?  I am in SE PA by the way.


Thanks!

I've assembled a few FAL rifles and after working out minor problems with them they all work great.

Not really much harder than assembling an AR except installing the barrel. If its not something you think you're up to you can have a local gunsmith install the barrel and headspace for around $100.

A wealth of information can be found at the FAL forum:  www.falfiles.com/forums/index.php

Every once in a while a few guys from that forum have a build party where they meet and help each other.
Check out this link it looks like they might be setting up something for mid sept: www.falfiles.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=116115

BTW what part of PA are you from?


I actually think that except for the barrel work the FAL is easier to assemble.

I am from NE Philly.  Thanks for the link I looked the other day there and couldn't find that thread.

We're practically neighbors. Where in the northeast are you?
