Further to Peter Laidlers question in the FN Trials magazine marked X2 E1 thread. " Did the UKicon DP any of their FN stockpiles afterwards."

I picked up an "old spec" deactivated FN FAL at Beltring a couple of Years ago. Looking closer it is stamped X8E1 (BR) this has been barred out and engraved DRILL RIFLE. 7.62 MM L38A1 and is stamped DP after the serial number 0170.
no part of the weapon has been sectionalised, apart from the lower section of the barrel has been cut out, as part of the convertion to Drill purpose.
I am now trying to find or manufacture the missing parts to return this rare weapon back to its original X8 condition.
