As of now I would get the ACR depending on how much cash he needed. Mainly because you don't see them that much. Hold out till you get what YOU want though, you will be much happier in the end of the day.
i say your right I went back and looked at some pics I my old upper with that same rail and it looks the same. I still have the rail and can see the little hook that attaches to the handguard retainer.

Lol, I already said it was the rail, been handling almost 100 of them lately. I would pass on the eotech personally if someone is offering you one. I am surprised you say the saiga is better than the arsenal. I have owned multiples of both and would have said the other way around really.

I'm late to the game here but here is my opinion......

You will never get what you want out of those uppers. Don't trade for them.

There. That was easy.

i meant the arsenal SGL was better but every SLR I have ever owned was pure junk.
