I noticed that the above link has been posted before in the Rhodesian section:

I know the person who actually bought that particular rifle and a few weeks ago we went out our local range to put some ammo through it.

Here is a nice video of myself shooting with the this Rhodesian SAS captured FN:

Also some nice photos of the day.
Notice the flying brass:
