I want one, and have for about a year now. Is an SLR107 the best option for the money at the moment? It doesn't have to be an Arsenal, that is just the first place I looked.
What are the odds that the selection of Arsenal rifles with poly side folders will increase? 7.62 or 5.45, it doesn't matter to me. If there is a chance of something better coming along within the year, I can wait. |

The Arsenal rifles are very nice. I think Arsenal USA builds rifles from whatever parts they get sent by the mothership in Bulgaria, which would explain what Arsenal sells a model for a while then that model is never seen again.
The AK100 type side folder is the only AK folding stock I've seen that doesn't compromise shootability: it locks up solid and you have a good cheekweld. BSW

I've got an SGL-21; what would it cost me to have the poly folder installed and who would do it right and in a reasonable amound of time?
Is finding parts a problem? If I am going to be out $400 (for example), I will just buy another rifle. That isn't a result of precise cost accounting by any means, that's just me. |

It's easy as pie*.
Just install the receiver that has the AK100 cuts front and back for the new rear trunnion and front stock lock, install the parts**, and you're done. BSW *For values of pie that include removing and installing rivets on a AK receiver. **Parts alone are going to run you $300+. |
