Ever tried what you chaps call an LAR? WE call in FN-FAL. What an easy rifle to shoot. There's a place in New Mexico you can rent and shoot at their range. My first handgun was a Colt Delta Elite. Only available in one caliber, 10mm. It now stays in the safe.
We called it the SLR, Self Loading Rifle. It was standard Army issue until we went to the Steyr AUG. I think we have M4's now.
We could buy surplus SLR's quite cheap, but they were heavy. I bought a Taiawnese M16 clone in semi auto as a bush gun.
Something tough that could roll around in the back of the van in case we saw a pig by the road when we were game shooting.

Yep, I forgot they were called the SLR.. only real difference was FAL and SLR Magazines won't fit each other. Mag retainer is different. My dad told me he was able to get either rifles magazines new or like new for $2.00 a piece.We used to have the South Korean equivalent to the AR-15 M16 and people treated them as junk. Turns out they were far superior than ours. After the ban they were hard to get. Made by Daewoo I believe. Solid gun too.

They're bad ass soldiers too.

Regarding the pony, just park your car someplace you don't want a flat tire near and things will work out.....or gone.

It was great fun. I had to sell it when they were effectively banned after a mass shooting down south.
