We don’t have any production time in this moment, sorry.” So yeah as per most of the last decade at this point, I wouldn’t rely on this showing up again any time soon…. That does not exclude it being available at the end of the year, although it is unlikely.

However, I do have to say that Negative Luke is overly critical of it and, in some areas, wrong. In fairness to Luke he plays to his audience. He swears and exaggerates things in a way that appeals to his main demographic of younger teens DerDer 1

DerDer Posted January 22, 2024 Posted January 22, 2024 Fire support still have the L1A1 hicaps in stock. Greek airsoft still have the FAL bipod available. So will 2024 be the year that King Arms finally deliver?

Strangely enough, the L1A1 mags look slightly different, appears there is a seam running down the entire length, and the mag retention notch looks slightly different

Bit annoying at times.
1st commando Posted January 23, 2024 Posted January 23, 2024 You can use the FAL mags in the L1-A1 if you put some tape on the top of the mag . Not the other way around though IIRC but i'll try later . They are different because the real ones are . FAL are metric tooling and L1-A1 are imperial tooling

FAL are metric tooling and L1-A1 are imperial tooling Would be handy if they were useable with one another, given how scarce they are. Similar to loaning an AKM magazine to a AK74 user. Not true to the real ones but convenient in a pinch.
Armo1000 Posted February 29, 2024 Posted February 29, 2024 (edited) From King Arms FB page. FAL and SLRs on the wall. Will this finally be the year? Probably not from experience, but who knows.... Edited February 29, 2024 by Armo1000 DerDer 1
DerDer Posted February 29, 2024 Posted February 29, 2024 That's an improvement on the last show they had a stand at (MOA perhaps?), where they only had one FN type replica. Here's hoping this is the year.

NiallT Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 I bet the next bloody Game of Thrones book will come out before the new KA L1A1 Armo1000 1
