Two Wheel Fix - Gun Thread

I'll start this build in about a month 7.62 x 51 NATO / .308 WIN caliber

British L1A1 parts kit I purchased back in the mid 90 for $99 ( they're going for $500 - $700+ right now) plus a receiver I purchased.

Here's what they look like assembled

I also have a "sporterized" L1A1 purchased around the same time as the kit which I found out I can legally convert back to original specs by replacing 7 of 17 parts wityh US made parts.

The sporter has a thumbhole stock plus the flash hider cut off ( "angry beavers" according to the FALfiles forum)

I love the flexibility of the L1A1. Takes any FAL mag you can find. My Only gripe was I never found a decent optic mount for them.

This TAPCO mount replaces the top dust cover. I'll let you know later how it works

So sick of waiting for my 2nd order of mags from Intense - I'm going to just keep an eye on gunbroker and when I can find 10 cheaper or the same I'll grab them and cancel the order with Intense.

I had a early version of the screw on top cover mount that wouldn't hold zero. I sol my Last L1A1 and bought the DPMS LR308. Wich I am now tearing about to build a SASS. Will post up when the rest of the parts get here.
