[QUOTE="cjjtulsa, post: 1420242, member: 6146"] An afterthought for optics would be true; both rifles were designed to be "battle rifles" - the mounting of optics has come from people trying to get more accuracy from rifles meant to be shot through iron sights by conscripted soldiers. I may possibly pick up an HK91 clone here in a week or so; have an FAL variant and love it. I also understand that there was a period of time when the PTR rifles had extraction issues as well; there is still an "ammo disclaimer" on their website that says what ammo you aren't supposed shoot out of it - and it's pretty long and includes some good military surplus. I think they designed the chamber with less flutes than the original design? At any rate, the G3/HK91 is supposed to be noted for eating any and all ammo you put through it, and being reliable in any condition. My only concern is the bolt gap you alluded to. [/QUOTE]
