I bought an SGL-21 from a buddy of mine for $750. When we were talking about it on the phone I assumed he was selling a SLR-107, because of the asking price.

I’m not an AK guy by any stretch of the imagination but my wife loves them and she gave me a BUNCH of crap after selling my last Arsenal which she, apparently, claimed. So I’m wondering how well I did on the purchase and why do the SGL-21s seem to be more sought after?

Not the best pictures, but they’re what I have for now. Can anyone confirm *exactly* which model this is? The stock doesn’t fold.

That is an amazing price.. even better wife. Hang on to it.

Definitely keeping the wife.

Great rifle.  The SGL21 was the first rifle I ever purchased.  I got 1000 rounds of red army standard HP and 3 circle 10 mags for $850 OTD.   I’ll never let it go, like you my wife would be furious!

You got a great deal in the current time period.
K-Var was selling these in about the 2008 time period for $500 to $550 or so IIRC, direct to customers.
I wish I had bought as many as I wanted at the time.  It was a great price then.  They commonly sell for well over $1,000 now on Gunbroker and elsewhere.
