I feel sorry for anyone that lives in Kalifornia and wants an FAL. I'm not current on the illegal laws of the PRK, however, a good person to contact would be T. Mark Graham, Gunplumber, at

He is very knowledgable on the building of the FAL rifle and a top notch smith to boot.
You might also consider taking out the gas piston, which basicly turns the rifle into a one shot at a time rifle. Not exactly the greatest fix, but it is no longer a semi auto rifle and must be charged for each shot that is fired. Personally, I'm still in love with my FAL and would build another in a heart beat if I had the funds to do so. Yet I doubt I'd even have one if I were in Kali. I lived there till '84 and it wasn't all that bad, not sure what happened.
If you don't already know about the Fal Files web site, you need to check it out

Anything you want to know about the FAL is there and it's been my home page since February of last year.
