    Early G1

    This is an early BGS/BW model "c" G1 Gewehr I have just completed building. The wood buttstock is a type B which was installed with a wood pistol grip.
    This was the last model FAL employed by the FDR before replacing it with the H&K G3.

      You did a good job. Were any of the parts original German? I built a semi auto M16 clone about a year ago (semi auto AR15 reciever built with a 604 upper and Vietnam era furniture.)

      I tell you what, building a gun is funner than buying one.

        More likely how many part are not German manufactured.
        To make the Gewehr BATF&E compliant under current law the following parts were changed out to US manufacture:
        Gas piston
        Hammer
        Sear
        Trigger
        Upper Receiver
        Magazine floor plate
        Magazine follower
        Pistol Grip
        Charging handle

        Since ARs are a US designed and domestically maufactured firearm they do not fall under BATF&E 922r order of compliance.

          I love FALs.

          My dad built a crap ton over the years.

                Beautiful!

                I need one for my collection, but they are very expensive here in Germany...and in semi-auto only.
