Question for FAL guys
I'm working on putting together a FAL from an IMBEL kit, and I came up a few parts short. I understand that some parts are compatible between FAL and L1A1, but what about the bolt hold open? I know about the L1A1 not having the little pin for the last round hold open, but are they the same aside from that? Length/ diameter? I'm building a metric rifle, but I can only find the commonwealth part.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Question for FAL guys
unless I'm mistaken, the part you speak off is compatible between metric and inch FALs, with just a little bit of modification.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!”
~Samuel Adams
"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it."
~Thomas Jefferson, 1791

Re: Question for FAL guys
go to Gun Parts guys. They still have odd ball parts left
Or go to SARCO. They still have everything other than barrels or receivers.
DSA has all too, but probably more exspensive.
