Had one for a short while but sold it to clear the way for more funds for other guns. Had two FALs anyway and this one lost.
First the pluses
1) metal finish was first rate
2) good receiver built except for the mag well, see below.
3) 100% reliable at the range
complaints
1) Mag well was way too loose causing the mag to wobble from side to side, even worst than the worst AK I have ever seen. Didn't seem to effect reliability though, but bugged the heck out of me cause it flopped around like a fish out of water.
2) Related to #1, the mag catch notch looked like it was cut to fit inch mags instead of metric. Made the mag wobble worst but again didn't seem to effect reliability.
3) Gas adjustment dial was out of round making it hard to turn, had to use a bottle opener to turn it.
4) Stock had a cheap look and feel to it.
