Two words for you Joker:HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!
The only kit (in plastic) that has both weapons is the Italeri Modern Light Weapons Set #421.It has been OOP for some time.But if you are lucky they do come up on Evil Bay (I say that because I use it waaaay to much).I got one off there awhile ago.
Good luck!

Firestorm Models produces a set of FN L1A1 rifles, the Aussie version that is pretty close to the FN C1A1. There are nine resin rifles in the set. I have seen the FN L1A1 produced for their Vietnam Aussie Infantry figure and it looks pretty good.
Here's a link to Firestorm Models:

The Italeri Modern Light Weapons set is still the best bet for the Stirling C1 SMG.

Lol, make it the "roll up the rim to win version", for added Canadian content.
