my only opinion is that it doesn't take the magpul pmag, -1 for that

Yea brother edge,RRA now has poly mags but I like the metal FN-FAL mags better more robust.Have metal 5.56 mags and P-mags like the P-mags better,couldn't I get a -.5 bro ouch!!  :( <lmao>

Thanks for a lot for the knowledgable insight guys, I actually went to my local RRA deer and help the standard operator and liked the fit much better than the standard a4. Now I get to start saving pennies for the new toy! Thanks guys and as always keep the brass flying
