Should I sell my PTR 91 F?

I've read a few threads about how the newer PTR's are finicky about some surplus ammo, the AW serial numbers in particular? (This is also stated on the PTR webiste. Too late for me).

I have an AW serial number PTR 91 F that I bought 2 years ago from CDNN for $900 that I have not fired yet?

Should I sell it while it is unfired? Or should I run some South African surplus through it and see what happens?
I also have Portugese surplus.

Would it sell for more unfired, to warrant not testing it?

Anyone with an AW serial number not have problems with the surplus ammo's?

The funny thing is that I had a Century G3 that ran flawlessly that I sold to buy the PTR91 because I thought the PTR would be an improvement/upgrade.

I also have a DSA FAL STG58, so I have been wondering if I needed the alternate platform in the same caliber.

Indecision..... :banghead:

Here's an idea, you could post it as "unfired" and place a line in the ad that you would be willing to test fire 50 rounds or so for a serious buyer if they liked.
Although, if you sell it as just plain "unfired" it takes the responsibility off you if the rifle won't run the rounds the buyer wants.

On the other hand how can you own such an awesome rifle as a PTR 91 for two years and not shoot it ???

I know. When I have the money to buy, I don't always have the time to shoot. And I already knew I liked the platform from having my Century G3.

Sell the PTR.

Buy ammo for the FAL.

I have never had a jam with my PTR. Mine is one of the older one with the metal FCG housing instead of the navy polymer one. Unless your FAL is absolutely awesome, I say try it out and see if it is good or not. You don't really know if you are missing out. I mean you haven't even shot it. Money comes and goes but truly awesome guns take time to find. I say try it out and see if you like it. That is unless you want the money more and your FAL does everthing you would want the PTR to do.
