My Ohio Rapid Fire Imbel receiver'd FN FAL came finally, I'm so happy! I picked it up Saturday but haven't got a chance to shoot it yet. Hoping to get a chance tomorrow night.
Turns out that it took Ohio Rapid Fire less than 20 days to build it. I ordered it the right around New Years. Found out that it had been sitting over at the shop, that I did the transfer thru (not my gun shop, used another one for this), for a month. Was not very happy with them!
1st impressions:
I ordered the $600 16.5" barreled carbine. Gawd is it short! Just a little longer than my AR carbine, but not much! It looks really cute.[:D] Finish on all the metal parts of the gun is a light gray. Stocks are black heavy duty plastic. The gun came in your standard plastic case w/ one 20rd mag and a 40+ page Imbel manual that seems to contain everything needed to disassemble it completely. The gun breaks open really smoothly. I've looked at some junker Century fals that didn't disassemble as nicely. Some buddies from my gunshop that own DSA Fals were very impressed by the looks of it.
Though I haven't got a chance to shoot it yet, I gotta say for $600 + $50 transfer fee + $15 shipping, you gotta get one of these! Can't wait for my funds situation to improve so I can buy mags and crap from Tapco.
