#1. I have a Fal with an Imbel receiver that needs to be refinished. It was painted by the previous owner. I just removed all the paint. It was not the most amount of fun. I am looking to either have somebody do some cerecoat or some kind of pro finish, or do another rattle can finish by me for ten bucks.
#2. I have a folding lower along with most parts to make it a para. Do I make it fold or keep it straight? #3. It has a 21" barrel, I believe. Do I cut it to 14.5, 16. Or keep it long? One issue: I have an AAC 762SD for it and finally found a FAL FH for it. LMK what you Fal guys think!!! Thanks in advance, G |

I had the barrel cut down to 18"on my Imbel and converted it to a para.
As it turned out I liked it better as a full size standard stocked rifle. Put the non-folding lower/stock back on it. I think the standard stock FAL is more reliable. I had a lot of trouble with the para recoil springs. For all your re-finishing and FAL gunsmith needs contact Arizona Response Systems (Mark Graham). He is the best in the nation. I do not recommend going shorter than 17.7" on a FAL barrel. If you have an full length chrome lined FAL barrel please don't cut it down. Have it removed and sell or trade it for a shorter barrel. The un-cut chrome lined barrels are getting hard to find. |
