There are no problems mounting optics, grips or laser designators. Companies like B&T and NEA make 1913 rails There is a factory adjustable stock available and the 55X platform offers the reliability of the AK with the accuracy of the AR in one package.
The two guns I'll never sell are both Swiss Arms. Don't mistake the pitiful SIG 556 that is almost your only option in the USA as being anywhere near the same level of quality as the original. SIG USA should be burned to the ground for what they've done to destroy the SIG brand and the reputation SIG-Sauer built over decades by manufacturing superior firearms.
I'll probably get flamed for saying it, but American shooters have to share the blame as well. You get what you pay for and the constant demand for sub-$1000 guns and the ability to use "cheap" AR mags have seen gun makers cut corners they shouldn't have. The result is an abortion like the 556.
