Mr. Scratch 91 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Finished this over the weekend. Not done yet; still going to mount a wooden fixed buttstock and some new sights. So far so good though. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jcmacconnell 25 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Looks great Scratch! Reminds me of a Galil. I am loving the recent posts of guys who have retro fitted wood to their S12s. Very Nice! J Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Scratch 91 Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) Looks great I love the FAL handguard... I've always thought the Izzy HB FAL handguard was awesome. Even considered getting an FAL just to have an excuse to mount the handguard. Now I don't have that particular excuse, so I'll have to come up with another. Y'all also note that this gun has a folding stock while retaining it's tang without resorting to any boxy receiver extensions, thanks to Polish mil surplus. I don't know why we don't make this type of folding mechanism in the US. There really isn't anything to it. Edited June 22, 2011 by Mr. Scratch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowFire 220 Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Nice. Yeah I have a Tantal myself so I can testify to that, there really isn't much at all to the Polish side folding design, real simple. I think the Israeli FAL foregrip was the base idea behind the Galil foregrip. I got to handle a Galil and now I want one of those too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D.C.MORRISON 494 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 looking good. have you decided on a muzzle device? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Scratch 91 Posted June 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) looking good. have you decided on a muzzle device? Yeah, but I can't find one anywhere. I need a E-TAC Slant Brake. I missed the last one MAA had in stock by a couple days. Nobody on the WTB board has answered my prayers. I don't see ETAC hurrying to make more. I'm too stubborn to settle for anything less than what I want. I guess I'll just leave it until the problem answers itself Edited June 23, 2011 by Mr. Scratch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D.C.MORRISON 494 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 it may just take some time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
