Fal smith in So Cal

[akjunkie]

I got a (RAW) DSA SA58 congo / 16in barrel with a (welded on) muzzlebreak.

Like to replace MB with a Flash hider.

Anyone in So Cal besides Enterprise Arms who can do the job for me?

Toss the barrel and get a new one, chances are if you cut and thread it the groups will be very bad.

yeh, that's my 2nd choice. was thinking about a 18in barrel. but a new one is hard to find. and i still need a RAW smith to work on it.

Post your need on the fal files, you'll get help.

I personally would not have Entreprise "gunsmith" anything

He's out of business. I used him several years back. Good guy, good work.

Evan's is local and has the RAW permit.. I'm sure he can do the work but I haven't used them so I can't recomend them..

AKJunkie,

I don't know Larry personally, but he came highly recommended. Now I'm back to square one on the FAL. Looks like Gunplumber in Arizona is my next best bet which I doubt I'll regret from his reputation. I mostly just wanted someone nearby enough to drive over, see his operation and his queue of rifles ready to go out the door to see if he was as good as many claimed.

I called, they are definitely out of business. He worked out of his house and apparently decided to retire. I believe his son was working with him for awhile, but it looks like he moved on as well. Too bad.

Yeah, just give them a year and a few tries. lol

I made the mistake of having them build me an AK.

Yes ,Larry is longer building or working on Fal's anymore.Only for close friends .His dad still does M-1 Garands and M-1A's sometimes.

Rich Saunders is great. And he seems to work more on 'human time' than 'gunsmith' time.

My Izzy FAL build (Stg58 lower, FALO HB upper, 922r compliance, reg'd AW) is a thing of beauty.


I've seen some Ariz, Response System guns too - they're wonderful.
