I have aquired an FAL in a trade, and I know very little about them. It is stamped L1A1 Sporter...Cal .308...CAI-St Alb VT. The upper receiver is also stamped "made in canada" near the Mag Well. It has a bird cage style flash hider, but no bayonet lug. The furniture is a dark wood. The serial number is 101xxx. Any information is greatly appreciated. Chris |
| Its a non-compliant, Century built FrankenFAL. More than likely, its built with a metric reciever (Imbel), but with all Inch parts. It will not take Inch mags unless the receiver was modified. Its non-compliant because it was likely shipped with a thumbhole stock that has been replaced. In order to legally do that, you have to remove 7 imported parts and replace them with US ones. You also have a flash hider which is not legal until september. |
Nope, made in Canada inch receiver. HiramRanger has one of these. |
There were a number of these imported. They were converted metric receivers, either of Century's own making or from Imbel. IIRC, they are the more desireable of the Century guns. |
