    Thanks.

    Apologies Mods, details are as follows:

    It's a Kings Arms FN FAL long version. Bought it from Ehobbyasia about 3 years ago, it's seen it's share of use but as Per pics its in perfect Nic, I'll try post photos soon, must figure out how to attach images.

    Comes with:
    original smooth rail
    22mm dove tail rail
    2x 90rd standard mags
    2x550rd hi-caps
    scope rings and/or scope

    In two if the pictures I've the front hand guard removed to show no damage to the gun. I haven't chrono'ed it in a while but on last check it was shooting at 310fps with a large style battery. All original manuals and parts from Ehobby have been kept.

    Only damage that was recieved to it is in the rear rubber buttstock, while skirmishing I knocked the rubber guard against a pallet and cracked the little plastic clip that slides into the guns groove. I can send you a picture showing the damaged buttstock. The damage is on the buttstock part not the gun itself.

    If you want to read up more about it check out Ehobbyasia's description on KA FN FAL Long version.

    Looking for about 250 for it, depending on collection and postage.

    Cheers dave. I'm really looking for a classic army or the JG/ZL/AGM clones as I already have some and plenty of mags. Your Fal is nice, with a handguard and muzzle flash replacement it would be a nice Irish army FAL. Whats your best price??

    Well best price for me would be 250 because I'm looking to upgrade, but I could do 200 and a meet for inspection before sale

    sorry only realized every picture I successfully posted was of the hopup side..

    Everything still 100% working with the Fal and all magazines feed well.The only difference with it now is that the battery lead is fitted with Deans connector.

    I have attached some pictures of the charging handle one in a cocked position and the other returned with that lovely clinking sound.

    Also have two videos I made of the cocking/release mechanism in action (albeit single handed:)) ,just have to find out how I can put them up here.If its ok with mods I have shared 2 dropbox links.

    Hi Sleepershark ,

    Cheers thats a decent price for that AEG. I'd be interested at around 160 if you could let it go for that. I'll collect this sunday as I'll be up that way but only this sunday.

    Sorry Sleepershark would rather hold on to it for anything less than 240 ,Thanks for your offer though!

    no prob. Sold it to you dad for 280, . Couldn't buy it back for 240 after 2 and a half years of use. Fps seems to have dropped a fair bit since then. Any work done on it? Will be up your way anyway so Offers there till tomorrow eve if you need the cash. Cheers.

    Hi sleepershark
    I am actually using my sons a/c here to sell this as I had cancelled my own one about six months due to the fact I was buying too much between here and adverts.
    I understand totally what your saying and a 2 1/2 years of usage and why you would pay 40 euro less than what you had actually sold it for after 2 Nd 1/2 years of usage.
    .
    I can assure yo u this RIF spent most of its life with me under the bed unfortunately seeing about 4 outings .The FPS was not that High from when I bought it but regardless of this it still shot well .maybe the drop in FPS is due to it being laying around for 2 and 1/2 years ,I might give it a bit of TLC.

    Anyway I am not going to fill your thread unnecessarily.
    best of luck in your Fal search and thanks for your offer.
