I just took delivery of a PTR-91 Classic with wood furniture and was able to do a limited (20 rounds) function test today and could not be happier. Recoil was less than I expected.
If my primary sight were going to be an optic, I would want the welded rail. |

The welded rail can't be beat in my opinion.

If you are going to mount a scope, the railed receiver is going to make it very easy and I don't see any way to get the optics any closer to the receiver either.

Just make sure you don't get one of the special American Eagle chambered barrels.

I bought mine from Atlantic a fee months ago and it has fun perfectly on both LC as well as a variety of steel cased ammo.

This thread is relevant to my interests, although I'm looking at the PTR-91 A3S

The A3R was not in stock so I bought the A3S.

Do HK claw mounts still work with the welded rail? I got one of the German Zeiss surplus night vision scopes a month ago and I was going to pick up a PTR to pair with it, I would like the rail I guess, but don't want to have to deal with figuring out another mounting option for the night vision.

I get back to the U.S. later this month, and am heavily researching one of these to possibly add to my safe..... I'd rather have the A3R, as I like the wide handguards......but I like the A3S as well..... Hopefully ya'll get the A3R back in stock in the next 2-3 weeks.

No, HK Claw mounts will not with the railed top receiver. |

Different scope but mounts the same way to the claw mount. http://mg-42.net/G3_hensoldt.htm |

With the finish on the A3S, should I go with a parkerized lower or painted?
|

Since it is a late HK-91 clone I'd leave the plastic lower on there. If you must switch it out, then go painted.

I'm wondering how one might get railed welded onto PTR91 GI either by manufacturer or service company or find a competent local gunsmith?
