Currenty, this is my wee little arsenal, but I am looking to expand it soon.

Wow! I don't think I've ever seen anyone with a king arms FAL.

There's only one other FAL in SC as far as I know, and that belongs to somebody who I can't remember.

I met him at a game. He had a Scottish accent and a kid. His FAL was the Ares version.

I absolutely love the FAL. Out of the box it has some issues (like the need to replace the cylinder head before you use it), but after a little tweaking, that thing is amazing. believe it or not, that 4 ft long gun is amazingly effective in CQB (I developed quite a reputation with it at our local Field. after about a game or two with me, people would quit giving me crap about it.) It is very accurate and has a decent range. So far I have dropped roughly $1.2k on that beast alone. The TM P90 and the KJW M700 though haven't cost me much except for the price of mags. As for the WE 1911, anymore it is just an expensive paperweight. I am looking at replacing it with a TM Mk23 SOCOM.

I like the look of the FAL. When I see one, it reminds me of the Falklands war.

What were the most expensive pieces?

mags mostly. They are usually ~$25 a piece, and i have....10 if I remember right (its bee a few months since I have been able to play. also, the 590mm prometheus TBB wasn't cheap and neither was the scope mount for the upper receiver. I still want to get the bipod for it as well, but that is $80.

I rarely use the scope on it, but that was only due to air seal issues I have had with it.

Too small. If you are going to put any optics on a gun that big, the optics have to be big. Otherwise it just looks stupid (yes, I care far too much for aesthetics...which is also why i
hate box mags on ARs). Again, that beast is 4 ft long.
