Armo1000 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) So, after over a decade of waiting looks like it’s finally back! Just hope this will include their L1A1s as well.

Austeyr Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Guess I’ll be getting a new rif soon then 🙄 Pappa Large and Anonymoose 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilMonkee Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Something doesnt quite look right about that RIF and I cant put my finger on it. Dimensions seem slightly off, think the mag is too long for a start. Meh, I have a GBBR version anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lord_Poncho Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 If they re-do the L1A1, I'll be clearing some space on the wall for it! Austeyr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerDer Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Now the $64000 question, go for the King Arms or wait for the LCT version? Curious as to how long they take to get the KA out to retailers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested in a folding stock FAL myself, would probably take a similar view and go with whichever came out first. King Arms can be stingy with the provision of certain variants. For about a decade you could get a Galil SAR no problem at all but a Galil ARM was a nightmare to find in stock. 4 minutes ago, Colin Allen said: The idea of LCT making mags for the FAL worries me after their issues with G3 mags. Extremely valid point. Had a G3 from them a few years ago and couldn't get it to reliably feed on midcaps. Similar problems with their newer HK33. Tried even going to the extent of attempting three aftermarket hop units. One wouldn't fit the aeg, the other would but the magazine wouldn't lock in. Third made no improvement over the stock unit. Ending up flogging them to someone at a heavy loss that was happy to put up with Hicaps only. It would be too easy for them to be cross compatible. Still as above, should be a good year for FN FALs. Potentially two AEG models and VFC bringing out some tacticool options on their GBBR line. Colin Allen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armo1000 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Also a bit surprised to see not even a basic ETU/MOSFET included for an updated old gun. This is kind of becoming standard on allot of new AEGs, and King Arms have done this with other guns such as their old Thompsons. DerDer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Facebook post describing it as a Ver. 2, might mean an internal tweak or two. Hoping it's closer to the Thompson than say the Galil series.

DerDer Posted Friday at 10:33 Share Posted Friday at 10:33 See on the company's Facebook page that they have the RIS handguards as coming back into stock. Would be a positive sign. Imagine scope mount rails aren't far behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
