I have a kit built FAL that I am considering parting ways with. It is an IMBEL reciever built up with an Argentinian parts kit. The barrel has been trimmed to 18" and (after the ban) threaded for a flash hider.
I built this gun several years ago just for fun. Parts kits were cheap and it gave me something to do over the winter months. The rifle is reliable and robust. It is battle rifle accurate. It is a solid platform and one of the best (I believe) .308 battle rifles. But I just don't enjoy shooting it a lot. It is fun, but my AR is fun too, and a lot more controllable in rapid fire.
Lately, I've been eyeing a Smith & Wesson Mountain Gun in .45 colt or a good heavy barreled bolt gun in .308, or a Garand, or a light weight commander--you get the idea.
So help me in my thought process.
