However to meet this plan and strengthen ties with the United States, the UK soon dropped the No.9 rifle in favor of the Belgian FAL chambered for the proposed American 7.62×51mm cartridge. 9 Mk 1 chambered for a 7 mm intermediate cartridge. The L1A1 and other inch-pattern derivatives trace their lineage back to the Allied Rifle Commission of the 1950s, whose intention was to introduce a single rifle and cartridge that would serve as standard issue for all NATO countries. Canadian C1s issued to naval and army personnel were also capable of fully automatic fire. However, Australia, the UK and New Zealand used Bren light machine guns converted to fire the 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge for use in the support role. Only Canada and Australia used this variant. Differences from the L1A1/C1 include a heavy barrel, squared front sight (versus the "V" on the semi-automatic models), a handguard that doubles as a foldable bipod, and a larger 30-round magazine although it could also use the normal 20-round magazines. A variant named L2A1/C2A1 (C2), meant to serve as a light machine gun in a support role, is also capable of fully automatic fire. Most Commonwealth pattern FALs are semi-automatic only. All others have standard Imperial or "unified" inch-standard threads throughout. The only exceptions are early prototype FALs, and the breech threads only on Israeli and Indian FALs. Most FALs also use SAE threads for barrels and assemblies. Notable incompatibilities include the magazines and the butt-stock, which attach in different ways. Many sub-assemblies are interchangeable between the two types, while components of those sub-assemblies may not be compatible. The original FAL was designed in Belgium, while the components of the "inch-pattern" FALs are manufactured to a slightly modified design using British imperial units. The L1A1 was produced under licence and has seen use in the Australian Army, Canadian Army, Indian Army, Jamaica Defence Force, Malaysian Army, New Zealand Army, Rhodesian Army, Singapore Army and the British Armed Forces. The L1A1 Self-Loading Rifle, also known as the SLR (Self-Loading Rifle), by the Canadian Army designation C1A1 (C1) or in the US as the "inch pattern" FAL, is a British version of the FN FAL battle rifle produced by the Belgian armaments manufacturer FN Herstal.
