after firing a firearm at low light (blinded by the flash), in a closed space (ear blast), and dealing with recoil in a not so perfect stance one might rethink his/her response. just saying...
grafs took only three days to get the brass to me. 5744 with a 190 grain noe cast bullet should do the trick. i mounted a scope using swiss products side mount. had a hard time finding a old style small tube 4x, went with a swift reliant scope.
.....these guns are so unique they are beautiful...
i use old style 87 sierra soft point bullets and re 15 in mine lol. shoots good. state of the art cartridge with last century components...go figure...
the bakelite handle is available, along with a taller front sight and a side scope mount. grafs has brass right now. there is a site dedicated to swiss rifles, all kinds of info and parts there.

....the satern is as nice of a ar as it gets...
my 97 has been shortened to 21, my flat ribbed 12 has a dial a duck aka polychoke and a 26 in barrel along with a new recoil pad. both are more usable for ME. fwiw...
i have been shooting some of the newer cartridges in the newer rifles of today. aka savage axis in 6 arc and ruger predator in 6.5 grendel. while i like the performance i cannot stand the construction of them.
...nicely put buy the sporterized by bobo gun. no doubt in my mind....just saying
