    Picked mine up today from Gavin and Gabby aswell.
    Rifle is very nice, most parts seem original, apart from the gas block, which just acts as a mount for the front sight and the barrel (though you can't tell the barrel isn't original, only by the proof). The flash hider is original. Receiver, upper and lower, bolt carrier and bolt are all matching, though as said previously the bolt has been newly numbered.
    There is no gas tube in the handguard. you can see the Germanicon proof on the barrel infront of the gas block, quite discrete.
    Stripped and oiled everything, was a bit dry, and fitted the automatic bolt hold open on empty from an FAL, works perfectly, groove is present on the receiver, and the platform catch appears to be on all the L1A1 inch mags I have and have seen.
    Will definately look better in my eyes with wood, have a nice Long wood butt, just need to find a handguard and pistol grip. Any one have a butt removal tool I could borrow?
    Will be on the zero range at Bisley on Tuesday to zero the irons and the Trilux.
    Have tried to attach some pics, hope it works.
