What a bloody shame that it's neutered to single shot. But at least you can still fire it. Here in Canada
C1A1/L1A1 and any other FN FAL variants are prohibited. I used to have an Israeli FN FAL (metric) that I loved to shoot but sold it to a collector since I couldn't take it anywhere. Thanks for sharing.

Yep, quite a few here in the UK
are built up from mix and match kits, as provided by a certain large UK dealer.
Some consider this a legal requirement due the vague nature of the legal mechanism that allows the build.
Others don't see the issue and build rifles from matching parts kits, with a new unported barrel and sufficient modifications to render the rifle manually operated.
I'm fortunate that both my rifles are all matching, Enfield 1962 and Lithgow 1964.
