In all honesty, the SLR is a difficult platform to turn into an MOA rifle. DS Arms has done a good job with the SA58 SPR, OTOH, it's a brand new build from the ground up to achieve what it does, and it uses no surplus parts. I don't think they'd have gotten the results they wanted by just re-working SLR's if any had been left in inventory.
Although a FAL/SLR as a 2-4 MOA DMR rifle, I think they'd have done fine.
Just noticed that too. Perhaps they hope to use it for shorter ranges and building clearance?
Exactly what it's for. A 6x ACOG is way too high a magnification and small FOV to be used in the "Bindon Aiming Concept" that the lower power ACOG's are capable of. In essence, using a two eye view, and it turns the ACOG into a red-dot type sight. And even then, many of the ACOG models have the secondary reflex sight mounted to them for CQB.
