  • Description:

    An exceptional example of an instructional, cutaway Canadian arsenals C1 rifle.  We have no information as to where or when the work was completed.  The only marking on this cutaway is the C.A.L. marking and the 1959 date.  A limited number of these rifles were made up for training purposes.  The milling work is very well executed showing the interior components  The wood and metal remain in excellent plus condition.  The magazine is permanently welded in place and shows 8 inert cartridges.  The dummy rounds remain permanently in place.  A prior owner had the rifle properly deactivated to meet the criteria of the time.  The chamber was pinned and welded.  The action was sealed by permanent welding.The cutaway are similar to the examples as shown on page 20 of "The Fabled Fal" by the late Blake Stevens. Any Canadian C1 rifle is a scarce item.  A cutaway is a very scarce item. A unique non gun item for the Canadian or military collection. Not subject to license.
