Get with member @fuatos, he’s the go-to guy for everything FNC as relates to parts. Technical questions go to @paco.

What do you “need “… I highly recommend a spare extractor set and a couple extra firing pins. Other than that you’re probably good to go.

Congratulations on the new FNC! Especially the RR as those are rare birds here in the US.

I own an FAL with a fixed stock and I prefer a folder. Should I get a top rail?

@Zohan who did the full auto conversion on your FNC? Was it Phoenix, Fleming, Hardtime or does your form list someone else?

If you can, get a StormWerkz rail. Rock solid.

Upper is marked Gun South inc but no SN on the upper (probably the MG maker) ATF form 4 says : FRANCE
Same SN as on the lower is also on my form 4

Well… I’ve never seen that before; it’s really cool to see something different.

Also, the “SO” serial number prefix isn’t common either. You’ve got a great set up.

If you’re willing to share, I’d love to see the autosear design.

Zohan, yours doesn't look like the S&H sear I'm used to seeing below...BUT, S&H did change the way they installed sears. Yours is the latest way instead all the material milled away. Maybe they modify the sears now too?

That’s a big negative. To the best of my knowledge, S&H only made one version of their FNC sear but I can ask Curtis to confirm.

@Zohan my PHX Arms RR looks very similar to yours.

It runs 100% without any problems. Did Gun South use the S&H sear? What did original FN sear look like?

Here’s a picture of a factory FNC autosear.

That’s a lot to unpack.
I’m currently on vacation with family at the moment so I apologize for keeping this response short.

Gun South Inc/ HOWCO imported about 1,000 semi-automatic FNC's in the early 80's along with FAL's and later AUG's ( which created a legal matter). I believe GSI did the conversions themselves, but I don't know that to a certainty.
