Unless you have the gas plug upside down ( as I did last weekend) then it doesnt work so good
Hee hee. I'd say that the FAL is at least as tough as the M14 type, esp. ones built on the receivers without the lightening cuts; at worst this is a wash. Other than that, I'd have to agree with most everything that's been said. I'd also point out that the M-14 type is *slightly more* politically correct; slightly more palatable to edgy/uninformed/non-gun law enforcement members. Another difference is that when buying an M14 type, you're less likely to get a lemon that doesn't work - springfield, polytech, the other one - they all put out pretty reliable stuff. The same cannot be said for FALs, such as the hit or miss ones from Century...
