The differences between British and Australian L1A1, SLRs.
The question recently arose as to whether or not there are any differences between the Australian and British versions of the L1A1 SLR, even minor detail differences. I don,t know the answer to this and I've had a look through old threads which seem to suggest that there may be slight differences in the style of cut-outs in the flash eliminator and perhaps very slight differences to the receiver? However I am still not really sure on the answer to this and it was suggested to me recently that the 2 versions were identical in every respect even down to the smallest of detail. I realise that Australia had a full auto version of the FAL rifle but that is something I am not concerned with regarding this question.
I would be interested to hear any thoughts on this matter from other members, please, and thanks for any information.
