But seriously, all 3 are in the running. (FAL, M1A, AR10)
My issue is accuracy. Now, I don't expect the FAL to shoot golf balls at 150 yards (like my 10/22) but my current one can't keep a mag full on a 6" paper plate at 25 yards. The one before it was better, 4" at 25 yards. The best one was my first one - a Century build. Would give me consistent 2-2.5 MOA. I'd be happy with that.

I also have a 22 conversion for my FAL that I need to send back to the guy that made it for some work - it has had headspace issues since day one, tried in multiple rifles including 2 real belgian guns. Constant (30-50%) misfires, one OOB at least once every 40-50 rounds no matter how cleaned, scrubbed, and lubed it is.

While I love the FAL, mine just treat me like a biatch it seems.
