Hello guys,

Can a SLR 95 accept the 2 tang milled Arsenal stock set that KVAR sells (the same one the SAM 7 is shipped with)?



Thanks all in advance.

NO.....you have to purcahse and install a lower tang. Some of the 95's had the lower/rear of the receiver milled out for a tang, but most did not.
I milled out a Bulgy lower for a tang myself once. I used hand files. I just did it over a few days while watching TV.

well technically, yes, but like Tactical said, you won't have the lower tang, so you won't have the support, and you will have a hole milled in the bottom of the stock for no reason. They do have single tang stocks out there though. If you want wood, look at Ironwood Designs.

This.....but I say if you're going to do it.....do it right the 1st time. A properly converted SLR-95 is Sweet, even with the pinned on brake.
Riveting the lower tang is the correct way, but I've seen guys srew the lower tang on as well.

Not necessary except for visual fulfillment. I stuck a Bulgy buttstock on a similar rifle & never installed the lower tang in 2002. 11 years later, all is well. If my receiver had been cut out for the lower tang, I would have installed it, but to me, it wasn't worth the effort. I still have the lower tang from Global Trades. [Arsenal USA].  GARY
