    Finally, the last piece for my Canadian FN collection

    First a disclaimer.....I am not grandfathered for the FN-FAL which is prohibited class here in Canadaicon, so all the FN rifles I have are neutered.

    I have the EX1, a 3Lxxxx FN C1A1, a couple of 8L C1A1s (which were proposed as being designated C1A2 by Cdn Arsenals, but not adopted), and a FN C2A1. I left an offer with a friend for the missing link, and just got it yesterday....the EX-2. Unfortunately missing it's optical sight and dust cover, along with the rear iron sight attachment. Apparently the Britishicon used the same set-up on their X8E2 rifles, but I suspect I will be looking for a long time to find those pieces.

    The magazine that came with it appears to be Isreali, but I am pretty sure I have a spare EX1 magazine somewhere, and I know I have a spare X8 magazine down in the gunroom, so either of those will fill the gap.

    Here are a souple of quick shots of the CDN EX-2. If there is anything in particular anyone wants to see, just ask and I will snap a shot.
