However, the 308/7.62 guns are bigger, heavier and require more effort to operate, plus recoil is up too.
In 223 Rem and 7.62x39 they work well with easy operation and modest recoil.
I have mixed views on these hybrid, straight-pull rifles. Also supplied was the old SUIT (Sight Unit Infantry Trilux) along with the dedicated top cover, he has limited quantities of these too. Neal also has some woodwork should you want an original L1A1. The SLR I tested was fitted up with the black plastic furniture, with replaceable butt pads to adjust LOP. One such supplier is Suffolk Rifle Co run by Neal Parnham. However, recent developments have seen this prohibition over turned, with a few of companies now offering legal Section 1 SLRs made from original parts kits but fitted with a new/un-drilled barrel, no piston and a modified bolt carrier to suit. However, many devotees of military rifles wanted an SLR, but back then it was impossible as the law stated that any rifle built as a Section 5 (which was how all self-loaders post-88 were re-classed) remained in that classification. There are other options one such was the Brazilian Imbal FAL, purpose-built for the UK market. The most popular is the AR15 as its light cartridge accuracy potential and adaptability suit this style of mechanism very well. Time moves on and ever-adaptable we now use manually-operated (straight-pull) versions of the centrefire self-loaders of the past. I loved my G1 and it broke my heart when self-loaders were banned in 1988! The furniture being fuller and offering better ergonomics. However, I preferred the FAL’s sights, butt, pistol grip and cocking handle. I changed three things on my G1 the safety/ selector, magazine catch and plastic forend all from the SLR, as they were superior to the FNs. In civvy street I had an FN G1, which was the FAL variant used by the Germans until replaced by the H&K G3. Having carried an SLR in the British Army for many years I learned to love it, preferring its power and range over the lighter and more compact 9mm Stirling SMG. Though identical in many ways it differed as to minor features from the FAL. Chambered in the new 7.62x51mm (NATO) the design was suitably Anglicised to become the Rifle Self Loading L1A1, better known as the SLR.

The FN FAL - ‘the free world’s right arm’ was Britain’s choice for our first self-loading design to replace the Lee Enfield No 4. All unique as to calibre and operation, they also share the fact they have probably been used/adopted world- wide more than any other service rifles. Weapon had issues with cycling the bolt so I stripped it only to find it was bone dry and seems to be almost unused apart from some green mist like residue inside the bolt cover.In terms of post WWII military battle rifles three designs stand out – the Russian AK47, Belgium FN FAL and the American M16.
