Forgot about the welded rail on the PTR.  The original HK 91 doesn't have a rail.  I guess I'd prefer a rail over an ejection buffer.  But the original sights work fine, they work well enough to have taken many white-tail deer.  In fact, the first deer I ever harvested was taken with a HK 91, with open sights.  It's also the gun I preferred when guiding clients while hunting black bears.

The ejection port buffer is really only a significant item if you plan on reloading your brass. HK91s are notorious for how hard they are on brass. Between the chamber flutes indenting the brass and the ejection port denting them, some people (not all) dont bother reloading brass from 91s.

As Jackalope said I would go for the rail over the buffer if you need to pick one.  I have done a few buffer installs on current PTRs, its not that bad.  I would be happy to help you out if you get back up here some time. It will be great to catch up.
