    Just got my FAL 😁

    Good evening guys, my name is Alan, i have been a springer fan for a long time, decided to step it up and got my FAL about 2 weeks ago, didn’t take long at all, maybe 10 weeks from application to sign off. Currently own a lot of Weihrauch springers, a few Air Arms springers and a Ruger Precision 22LR.

    Keen to learn. Thanks for having me.

    Welcome aboard and well done.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
