Skimmed the 21 topics on the front page. I think the rifle I'm looking at is a 21-61, basically a 74-pattern in 7.62x39 with a 74 brake made by Arsenal USA? It takes standard -47 mags though, correct? What about other -47 parts like FCGs, et cetera?
Also wondering if anyone has links to any reviews on this rifle as Google Mobile is failing me. Trying to find out if there are any issues to look for with this rifle.
ETA: I'm pretty much completely ignorant on SAIGA coversions, my only Arsenals are 100% Bulgarian manufacture, so I beg your pardon as my questions are probably old news.

The bolt and carrier deal is true of all SAIGA rifle conversions though, isn't it?
Why only CLP?

They use a spray on finish, any harsh solvents will strip it off the receiver.
I would like to know the difference between SGL barrels and SAIGA barrels? or are they the same
I am pretty sure the SGL and Saiga barrels are identical. The SLR series should have a Bulgarian barrel which has a different profile.
