They found their graphics program hidden in a surprise stash while searching the warehouse, and we're just lucky to get those graphics because they're probably the last graphics that will ever get imported in ours or our children's lifetimes.

Arsenal's marketing is really, really, crappy.

Anyway, back on topic.

Things we know:

-milled receiver
-bulgarian (not russian, no vityaz or svd or anything!)
-overpriced
-not game changing

probably some new muzzle device, or maybe a large run on folding stock milled guns thats 2k+, or "SBR ready" milled guns (krink/ak104 gas w/ 16" barrel)... zzz

I haven't formed much of an opinion on Arsenal thus far in my experience in the AK world, but it sounds to me like they have a very disorganized warehouse if they're constantly "losing" firearms in the damned place. For the price they're getting for these rifles you'd think that they could afford to hire a competent services team to keep track of their inventory.... Think I'll send them my resume.

If it's a SAM, it's more than likely made on a Bulgarian milled receiver.

their current lineup is:

SAMX is Bulgarian milled
SLR-10X is Bulgarian stamped (I know the SLR-101s is milled, but they've renamed them to SAM7)
SA XXX is US milled

Nothing's set in stone until we see what it is, but it's likely going to be a bulgy milled gun with some "game changing" folding stock or something. I have a strong feeling that it is going to be some kind of folder to fill the spot that the stamped SLR rifles left, since those are out of production (or sitting in a warehouse)

It's a marketing ploy. They purposefully "lose" rifles in the warehouse (i.e. store away to charge more at a later date), and then put them up for sale a few years later. It's really funny.

We don't know that it won't actually be game changing as well... It's easy to disparage the term after Red Jacket, but my original guess of a Krebs developed rifle would fit the term.

Do you guys remember when Arsenal "answered the requests of costumers" and made 6 or 8  5.45x39 Krinkovs, and charged out the ass for them?  Remember when they did that for us?  Instead of making an SLR-105UR, they decided to just fuck us?

The term "game changer" or any other coined phrase is all about perspective.  Sure YOUR perspective it might not be, but to others and maybe even the marketing/sales staff of KVAR, it might be.  And I am sure it would be a great seller if priced reasonably, and not the $2k that sam7sf rifles are currently going for.

7/31/2013 12:09:13 PM EDT

No, if they got them from them for that then it was some kind of write off out under the table deal. They go for almost what we pay for them.. Around 700 i think?

I'm guessing a milled side folder like their current mil production.  They like to throw rails on things too, so add one of those.  It's going to cost more than its worth because it's a limited special edition.

I'd like a new non-ban SA M-5 with just a fixed stock, but that's too much to ask for.

First 3 rounds outta the .308 right after I bought it, 100 yards, iron sights, cheap Wolf 145 gr. FMJ.

Calm down.  I believe you're mistaken.  You seem to shoot just fine.   My comment was regarding if a used vepr is worth $400 more than a new one. Based on your past preaching, no it's not.

What is it with everyone and shooting for the tiniest groups lately?

Some of us really don't care. I don't pretend my AK's are tack drivers, and I'm not a professional target shooter. I shoot because it's fun. Period. Torturing myself at a bench with a locked in rifle, shooting groups doesn't seem fun. But that's me. If I can hit an IPSC steel silhouette consistently at 300m, that's good enough for me, and that's what brings me the most joy.

Some of you act like we have to know the technical details, the nitty-gritty in order to be "legit" shooters, and shooting tight groups is the most important thing evar. There are different types of shooters. We need to respect each other.



Now back on topic: It's not anything Russian.
