Entreprise will build on pretty much any receiver.
I would also advise you go with them for a build, they have almost 15 years of experience building FALs. Plus, their customer service and turnaround times are top notch. |

Another good choice is Rich Saunders at CGW. He's done a superb job on two of my builds, answered all my stupid questions the first time around and it cost and arrived exactly as he said it would.

I have 2 FALs that were built by thedrickel and I couldn't be happier. I think the Para might be my favorite of all my rifles. |

I second that, Matt is a stand up guy. I had my Fal assembled by them and they did a great quality job. All of the staff is great, Ramon is a great smith. I had to drive a ways but I was more than satisfied with their hard work. I am going back to do a transfer through them next week. I highly recommend Entreprise
stay safe |

Smiths who can correctly assemble, headspace, and test fire an FAL are already known entities. You friendly local gunshop jockey more than likely doesn't have the tools or knowledge, even though he makes his living as a 'qualified' gunsmith.
Ask on the FAL Files, or pm thedrickel (sp??) here. A bunch of good stuff has been written about Enterprise, and some not-so-good stuff. Do your due diligence before you spend your money. -hanko

The easiest is George at Fort Courage in Simi Valley. Call Tim and have George get in touch with you. George did Tim's and my FAL. Both of us couldn't be happier.
George can even refinish your parts kit if you want. He did mine in less than a week. Thanks, Builder
