      I dig it. I hope one of you knows how to reload or is wealthy enough to throw dollars at paper.

                Looks great!

                If anyone wants to look this thread at a PA site has a ton of Rhodesian pics:

                      That is a whole lot of raw frickin' awesome. Love the guerilla surplus look (not to mention the FAL is my 2nd favorite semi-auto rifle of all time, #1 favorite the SVT-40 - sorry Garand lovers).

                      If some level of government had that information, what would they do with it? How would having that info benefit public safety? How would it benefit law enforcement?

                            Personally, I consider the FAL to be the best and most reliable of the 308 rifles! I also stocked-up on 7.62X51 when it was cheap---still have plenty...

                              Completely agree. .....I am more of an Ak guy but I find myself shooting more the para FAL. ..wife likes the sigjt system on FAL she says she finds it very easy for her to shoot.
