OK guys, I have been kicking this idea around various forums for about a year now and havent ever got much feedback from it... I am going to buy the parts and try it eventually...
I want to use an AR-15 upper receiver assembly married to a FAL lower assembly w/a custom adaptor piece that also has the magwell with it. I propose to use the AR bolt carrier, shortened appropriately (if at all..) and modified w/a lug to mount a FAL type "rat-tail" to act on the FAL recoil spring.
The way I see it, I would use a .223 AK magazine along with an AK magrelease attached to an "adaptor" to mate the upper and lower together. I figure as long as the hammer hits the FP in the correct position and the magazine aligns w/the bolt, it shouldnt have any problems...
I would serial number the adaptor and it would become the firearm (I think?) since the upper and lower themselves would not be firearms when split apart.
I have used scale-pictures and blueprint drawings cut up and it really looks like it would work w/out a problem. There is no point behind this other than to make something unique from 2 non-guns....
THANKS
JP
