Did I say it was an FAL? I don't think so, because I don't think it
was. FN is a manufacturer & design group that makes many different
weapons.

Well, I'll quote you:

"Once upon a time while roaming around at a shooting event on a
military base, I got a chance to try out a couple of select fire
military arms (including a Galil and an FN-FAL) with 3-round burst. It
is a huge advantage over timed fire. "


Well, if that's an accurate quote, then it was my mistake. I meant FN.




All that stuff about making a semi into a fully automatic by filing a
little off the sear, or some other simple change one might make in
one's garage, is nonsense.



Well it's hard to file hardened steel, grinding is better I've not
seen the modification but it was certainly talked about.


Yep, by people who don't know any better, like Horvath. It's just
another old wives tale. Ask a gunsmith.


Can't some sears can be modified by grinding while other mechanisms need
a drilling jig or new plates?
