Frequently Asked Questions

What new AK-47 variants were showcased at SHOT Show 2011 by Arsenal/K-Var?

Arsenal and K-Var displayed several AK-47 variants, including the Saiga SGL12 12-gauge shotgun, the .410 gauge Saiga SGL41, RPK variants in multiple calibers, and the SGL31 side-folding rifle series.

What makes Arsenal's AK receivers unique?

Arsenal emphasizes its hammer-forged milled receivers, which are created under extreme pressure and heat. This process is claimed to result in superior durability and strength compared to receivers that are simply milled from steel blocks.

How do California-compliant AK-47s differ from standard models?

California-compliant AKs, like the SGL23/33/43 series, feature a proprietary magazine lock requiring a key for release. This allows compliance with California laws while maintaining the rifle's original aesthetic and pistol grip.

What accuracy standards does Arsenal claim for its rifles?

Arsenal utilizes an automated machine for zeroing and accuracy testing, verifying sub-MOA groupings (combat accuracy) for rifles like the SGL21 and SGL31 before they are shipped to customers.
