Which rifle do you want to see Arsenal make the most/first since production runs seem 2 B limited? A new ban could cut out a lot of what we just got back so I assume all of you want the pre ban goodies so it's not specified but is implied. Also to maximize choices assume all stock sets are black. At least if they make the the gun you want you could change the stock to wood or green etc. I listed the Classic in wood because I beleive the rifle is a little different other than that. I could've listed another 206 possible configs.
Ak vs RPK, scope rail or not, black, green or wood furniture, 5.45x39.5, 7.62x39 or 5.56/.223, milled vs stamped, underfolder, sidefolder or straight stocks=
2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x2 x 3 = 216 types of rifles they could make!
Now I see Arsenals slowdown . Lets let them know what we want. Please send/link your friends/forum buds that want one of these to vote here.

Let's hope we keep the rights we deserve and Arsenal gets time to make them all!

Aresenal USA right? I wanted one of those 7.62x39 but when I called to find out how to buy one the guy was really abrupt in telling me that Interstate now makes and sells them. I said thanks anyway and spent my money elsewhere.

I'd like to see a stamped sidefolding 5.45 rifle with bayonet lugs and russian laminated furniture. Yup, that would be about perfect. :D

Um, NO. Arsenal USA = Global Trades which is located in TX.
Arsenal Inc is located in NV and has ties with Arsenal Bulgaria. They include K-Var corp. Not sure which is the parent company.

Well, on their website Arsenal Inc. offers a large variety of rifles in both 7.62 and 5.56, so I'll cast my vote for anything in 5.45.
Of course the reality is that anything by Arsenal except the SA M5 and SA M7 has always been difficult to find at a reasonable price. Why do you think they're going to increase production now of anything but the standard models with stamped receivers?

Well I wish they would up production, not so much that quality is affected but dang all the cool ones get sold out so fast.

I'd love to see a '74 (or would this one be a '104?) with the edge sided blonde Bulgarian forends used on the SSR series, with a short barrel permanently extended with an effective and aesthetic FH. Would have a front site gas block. Buttstock would be side-folding. Maybe even have a dust cover rear site and scope rail at the usual rear site location.

I asked for a SLR105 with a AK74 muzzle brake, bayonet lug, and side folder, and they gave me the cold shoulder. I guess Ill take my money elsewhere, I thought they would be worth doing business with.

I was recently informed to not expect a regular production side folder from them anytime soon.

Id be happy with a underfolder if theyd chamber it in 5.45 and add a AK 74 brake on it.

I just got one from them with plenty of evil features. I'd like a .223 version with the same evil features though.

Give me a good old true to life AK-47, real wood and a milled receiver. I ain't asking for much, just the real thing...none of this AKM cheap, money saving nonsense.
Cheers.

Who makes the second one in the pic of your post? I've seen it on the site graphic, and I dig it.
