DSA FAL conversion to bullet button

[eighteenninetytwo]

I'm prett certain that a wee bit of dremelling to remove what looks like a small chunk of weld on the receiver will make my FAL able to use the magazine catch normally if I put a spring in it. Of course this is illegal hereabouts but I'd like to be able, when in Nevada or something to change mags. I recall reading about mag catches for the FAL that have an Allen screw through them which touches the mag and stops the mag catch working, but can be loosened when in a free state to allow the catch to function. anyone know where i could buy one of these from?

Its so much easier with a PRK bullet button

So with that you CAN open the action? Still looks kind of goofy though with that block of steel around the catch. Is there a lower profile version somewhere? is there a reason that you can't put a screw through the catch? Does somebody sell catches that are drilled and tapped?

It is the most efficient and streamlined design available. I dont know if any "company" sells the mag catches drilled and tapped, but I have seen a lot that have broken. It weakens the part. Also no worries about having a AW when you back out the screw
