Oh and any FAL/SLR will earn you man points and style points well out of the grasp of eitehr the M14 or AR10.... wink


Would be very interested in yaking with anyone who can find a reasonably priced FAL and of good quality. The M1A is a very good battle rifle that takes a beating and gives the shooter great results.
