Matching numbers one sold for just shy of $2500.

I agree Gunbroker is probably the best place. Do you have the bolt? That would make a difference in value. A "parts kit" should have every piece except for the trashed receiver.

Still for $200 you did good. Just an original barrel should go for way more than that (at least thats my guess).

OP, rule #2 in the classified section:

This is not eBay, include a price or a trade

The few civilian legal models imported from 1968 to 1989 are now worth over $5000 complete.

Parts kits are available from time to time from Switzerland as there complete guns are worth $200-$300, so sometimes an enterprising US company will buy some and have them de-miled to turn them into parts kits they can sell for $600 and above.

If you look on the Swiss Rifles Forum and the FAL Files there are some forum threads that detail the issues people have had trying to make a US made receiver to use these parts kits. Not easy.

Unfortunately I do not have the bolt.. on page 1 in the pic's is all I have.

Thread makes me cry too. I can remember when the semi version was legally sold. They were crafted and finished like Swiss watches.

and that's why a semi auto receiver would cost about as half of a pre-89 rifle.
