lookin forward to the leatherwood for that "reach out and touch someone" feeling , but yes , id love to find an 800 to sight in on with that , im thinking the 200 [our local range limit ] is OK for the FAL ,

ive got the ACOG on the AR set up on the 100 and the EOTECH on the M4 set up for close quarters , should be good to go when the SHTF - or the zombies come callin :lol

and ...............thats what i did -

this was done for two reasons , i can live with the red dot accuracy of the FAL as ive learned they arent a 200yd weapon with better than MOA accuracy , not a bad rifle of coarse but im wanting something really good with the leupold and leatherwood ,

the leatherwood is what was on the M14s in VN according to research and photos i found , so im really good with that combination ,

the FAL scopes are a bit pricey and not all that remarkable as im finding in my research and comperable to what my aimpoint can do ,

the peupold is going on my DPMS LR308 build , and ive now got my order in for the lower and a commitment to build this winter with my armorer buddies ..........as entertainment ,

and .................ive found and secured the 24" bull bbl upper , now i need to pay for it with my secret funds from moonlighting at the club , ill photo it when in hand ,
