In the latest Sunday Times, London, there's a very long and interesting article about the efforts made to trace 29 FN-FAL rifles used by British paratroopers in the so-called "Bloody Sunday" shootings in 1972. It's a tale of mishaps, malfeasance and plain bloody stupidity, but a very interesting look at just how far investigators were prepared to go to find these weapons for a judicial inquiry. They were found in Sierra Leone, Lebanon, Holland, the USA, and other places.
