Does anyone recognize this?
Not my area of expertise.

Whatever it is, it's illegal...

Vlim · 03-07-2019, 06:37 PM

Not over here

Besides, the thing is gutted, no internals present.

MikeP · 03-07-2019, 08:25 PM

I don't believe the lack of internals makes any difference here.

Vlim · 03-08-2019, 04:14 PM

But that's not the question. I'm trying to ID this part, not to have a talk on transcontinental gun law perculiarities.
(at the moment)

Looks like the lower receiver of an FAL to me.
Well the rear portion of a saw cut receiver anyway.

Selector markings in English...But no 'Safe"...

Serial on other side???

Found it. It is a Stoner 63 part.
Probably leftovers from NWM, who obtained a production license in 1967 but shelved the project after only a few were made there.

Its always funny how we all get off track - its harder on a multi-page posting, but it still happens.

Vlim, I think its for a Stoner 63

There, see how I can help?

Should have checked my own archive first. I have a manual for the damn thing...

Its an almost complete original factory parts kit from NWM and Cadillac Gage from 1967. NWM obtained a license from Stoner, assembled a few rifles but quit with it when no orders could be secured.

These parts can be traced back to the former commercial manager and collector Henk Visser.

Yes it is. And it makes sense that you found one too
