Does anyone know of a good gunsmith in Pittsburgh area to work on FAL rifles? Thanks in advance. KM

I'd like to find one too.

Every one I've talked to about FAL builds knew what they were, but that's about it.

I'm probably going to send my kits off to ARS or Sledgehammer Arms one of these days.

What is the specific issue you have with your FAL? I have 3 and have built 7 over the years....anything we could "talk you through" or help diagnose here?

If it needs to be sent out, ARS is the best, Gunplumber (Mark Graham) is the last word in FAL building and knowledge.

I highly recommend joining up at the Falfiles, ton of information, pictures and tutorials over there.

Well I'm not in Pittsburgh but I am in Pennsylvania and I can reinstall your flash hider. Here is the address to my Facebook page showing a recent FAL build that required the barrel to be shortened then threaded. https://www.facebook.com/PrecisionArmaments The pictures are in the photo albums under FAL para build.
