    My first FAL...

    I finally am able to go out to my little workspace a few minutes a day now so I was able to do the final assembly. mrlonewolf and another calgunner named Mark (forgot his screen name) made it possible for me to get started on this. I will probably have to wait until I finish physical therapy to shoot it. Thanks to wyseguy I had a great kit to work with, thanks Don! I went with an 18" barrel in case I want to go the Para route later on. I've got another kit I'm putting some wood furniture on as soon as I get some other projects finished. I see now I should have wiped all the excess lube off before taking pics.

      I love the PRK BB, much better IMO then the JJPerl or Drickel (sorry).

      How's the PWS muzzle brake? Does it cut down muzzle climb like the AR version?

                  You'll realize you can't build just one...

                  just a matter of time.

                  VERY nice FAL.

                  True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

                  Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!

                                  Very nice Bob. That's one black rifle I don't have.

                                      Thanks Mach. If you ever take a break from training new builders we'll have to go shooting.

                                          Very nice. That is a rifle down the way from me after I finish two ARs.
