I've been shopping for a battle rifle lately, and came across a FAL in a local gun store.
It's an Austrian STG 58 built on a an Entreprise Arms receiver. It looks good and tight, with a great bore, but I'm concerned about other problems that might not be readily observable. What should I check for? I
'm worried some doofus (like me) built it in his garage and bondo'ed in some critical part before selling it to the shop. Did any reputable manufacturer build these on Entreprise Arms receivers?
It's marked $499, but I think I can talk them down $25 or $50.
