I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to FAL style rifles, so if this question has been asked before, I apologize.

I'm putting together a Izzy Light Barrel FAL and have been told that I need Izzy specific parts from the receiver forward. Ok, no problem...except that I have no idea as to which parts are required. Can someone point me to a list or post a list of the parts that are needed?

Thanks!

More info needed. Are you trying for 100% Izzy and want to know what parts to get or want the Izzy look on a metric or inch foundation?

This is an Izzy light kit complete, lower barrel is an Izzy heavy.

I'd like to get as close as possible, but if good quality parts can't be found, I'll settle for the Izzy "look" on a metric receiver.

Can you have an Izzy look on an inch receiver?

Go to Sarco they have quite a list of parts. Some are unique like the lower $45(?).
Gunthings has a smaller list but their service is much faster.

Almost(?) every Izzy part is marked even if it is otherwise identical to it's metric equilivent.

This started out as a G1 lower.

This G1 had most parts replaced or modified.

Have been told they are slow, but you do get what you ordered. Don't have any experience with them, so this is only hear-say to me at this point.

I ordered some stuff through them. There was a mixup on the order, and the first time customer service took my notation but didn't do anything. The second time, I got my missing parts.

Only a minor frustration. The price was right. I would order from them again.

I've ordered Izzy parts from Sarco before, I got what I ordered, great condition. They've a good selection of parts , you might have to wait a little while, but I believe it to be worth it. Jeff

Thanks for the link...I have seen SARCO ads before but never paid much attention.
They have a bunch of useful reference stuff on there!
