Have any of you ever seen something like this before?

L1A1 Toy

It looks cool to have to have for the kids to play with and get acquainted with a FAL.

No it is not mine but I was thinking about bidding on it.

While it is a cool toy, ( prefer the term "collectable") I don't think I'd let the kids (or anyone else play with it. It's a pretty rare piece of FAL history and at 50 years old and in unfired condition, it might help pay for their college tuition someday.

I'd buy it at that price, but already have too much "STUFF"

I have made that vow but somehow keep ending up with more FALs.

That is a lot cooler looking than the plastic 'Airfix' SLRs that me 'n my bro had when we were kids back in the 60's. They did fire plastic bullets from the mag and had a bayonet though.

We'd might as well just bid it up right here and arrive at a final winner and price, then that person can enter the final winning bid on GB and save us all time.

$100 bucks now. I bet it goes $650 to an L1A1 collector, more if the buyer is a cap gun collector.

I put in an early bid, but I think I will knock off early. Go for it.
