FN C1A1 Facsimile

[TacticalTeacher]

Personally I would just buy a M14 as it isn't going to cost you a arm and a leg and realistically there is nothing truly like the FN-C1 on the market.

I carried a C1A1 back in the 70's and overseas deployment. I'm rocking a Norinco M14 because it's affordable and they are available (for the time being....)

You guys are nice people for hooking up your dad!

A blast from the past:



And yes, that's me in Wainwright 7708 Canal Du Nord Platoon. Younger and more foolish!

Cheers and thanks!

How bout this: FN CAL

Wrong caliber but rumor has it some existed in Canada and are non-restricted.

The FNC was one of the competitors for the Small Arms Replacement Project (SARP) which selected the C7. The FN CAL was 15 yrs earlier.

If there are any in Canada, they would likely have been scooped as Restricteds by C51 in 1977 due to magazine-fed, short barrel and centrefire like the M1 Carbines.
