Otherwise The guy (john appelman) that runs the gunsmith shop “Appelwerks” in the basement of Gunsport in Boulder is a FAL guy and has built a number of them over the years. Hickman Firearms down in the springs does FALs as well.

FALs are reletively easy yet it’s amazing how badly some people fuck them up, due diligence is required when looking for a smith.

A couple of my builds



I'd check with John if you have his contact info. 'Thought" he was no longer there based on another persons interaction with him. But who knows, he may still be there.
