I saw a very few kits at Knob Creek.
Lots of spare parts including barrels.
Getting pricey. There are lots of kits in country,
just get ready to pay large.

Sarco might still have some Argentine kits.

I saw an Imbel kit on falfiles the other day $400. It sold in 18 minutes.

I've got one or two plus a Century receiver sitting around somewhere.... guess I'll have to figure out what they're worth, probably not gonna get built since I've already got a really nice Imbel STG-58 in the safe.

I bought 3 Imbel kits from wolfsburgbob back in the day. I've already built 2 and have been hanging on to the 3rd until I decide what to do with it. I was on somebody's waiting list for a receiver (can't even remember who) but never heard from them.

I have three Rhodesian FAL kits I bought from FWRA on FAL Files just before he passed away a few years back.
Just have not got to building FALs yet.

He's somewhat active on the AK Files but rarely posts anywhere else that I visit.

He occasionally posts a few items for sale there, as well.

Geez, everybody here knows Bluejack has them all, he stores them in the FAL annex to his home.

Last FAL kits I bought were Imbels from Dan's ammo. IIRC, they were $150? Someday I will be able to afford the receivers to build them on, or get those two Century castings milled out and heat treated.......

Yup, $149. Those were the same ones that Bob was selling. Lot of finish wear, but excellent inside were it matters. As they said carried a lot, shot very little.
