ARCA Rail for TRG42?

I want to find a solution for this too.
I’m thinking these would work with the right rail. I used the B&T a picatiny rail these are for before I got their spigot Mount for my TRG.

I think you are right. It shows the kit attached to the TRG so the nuts should fit. Just have to find the right rail and correct length screw. I saw those kits before but didn't see that the nuts were sold separately. I am going to order some but wont be able to try them out until I get home in a few weeks.
Yes your right !sorry I hadn’t read the whole description.
What about this,

Maybe the guy from RRS can correct me if I'm wrong but the small rail is for an Anschutz which is what the Sako has. It won't work on an AIAE because that's a different rail but I don't recall what it's called. I found out the hard way, I bought one and the topic was discussed about time it arrived at my door lol
I posted this in an earlier thread based on what I di with my TRG22.
If you get the "BT28N replacement T-nuts" for the BT28 AFAR kit from B&T Industries, you can use those T-nuts in the Sako TRG anschutz -style rail and mount a generic ARCA rail with appropriate bolts (10-32, I think). It looks like the "Tnut for Ancschutz or Savage FTR" from Phoenix Precision would also work (and is a little beefier), but it needs to shortened to fit in the slide-in for the rail.

Do not order the Anschutz RRS "BANS-80" if you think it will fit your TRG. There are variances but it wouldn't come close with any of mine. I have an as new in bag BANS-80 I'd love to sell if you don't believe me....
I dabbled with the BT28 nut options- it is not a very robust solution if you are going to put it to hard use. I ended up replacing my TRG rails with the LRA picatinny forearm replacement rail to accept the new RRS dual dovetail option.

I used a generic 150mm (~6 inch) rail that I had in spare parts. You could go another inch or two further forward, depending on what your sling stud/bupod configuration is.
For greater robustness, you can use more t-nuts/bolts. I used 4; I think 2 would be o.k. for light duty occasional use.
