Hello,
New to this forum but active on a few here in the US.
Former FFL/SOT, (Federal Firearms License / Special Occupational Tax) that was only for a few years back in the 90’s.
Active collector/builder when my budget allows.
I’ve had the pleasure to own a few rare pieces in the past. When the opportunity or need for cash arose, they moved on to new owners.
Interest was always towards the modern military style rifles, mostly HK.
Past semi rifles that have come and gone include Valmet 76, Galil ARM, FAMAS, HK91, AUG, FNC, SIG 550 and a few others.
Past full autos when I had my SOT included HK33K, HK51K, MP5SD and a Vollmer built HK21 …and a MAC.
What brings me here is after a few, quite a few, hours of researching the SIG 543 rifle. We are due to have a release of 543 parts kits here soon.
Since you all have had the pleasure of getting the FAMAE rifles in some years ago, I’ll be looking for information.
These parts kits are missing a section of the receiver right where the bolt hold open lever is located. I need to see how these levers were mounted on the FAMAE and make a comparison to the SIG.
Once I navigate through the forum I’ll find the appropriate place to post.
A fairly recent build completed a few years ago when we received the Beretta 70/90 kits back in 2020. That’s a story in itself, lots of hands on deck in the US and assistance with a gentleman in Italy that provided a lot of dimensions helped people get these back together.
My latest G3 cut away build.
FMP G3 parts kits that came from Portugal earlier this year.
I swore I wasn’t going to ramble here and I did.
Looking forward to navigating through your forum, thanks!
