Can anyone tell me about them? Are they worth tradeing a bushmaster XM-15 for?

depends. The SGL 20 IIRC didn't have all the options. May just have the bayo lug and not the accessory lug. I believe the originally sold for around 7-800 new, but that was then.



I like em for what it's worth. Is this your only AR or do you have others?

I have an SGL-21-61 and love it. 2000 rounds so far with no problems, I added the ULTIMAK rail system with the Aimpoint T-1 and the US PALM grip. Arsenal is one of the best AK's on the market, Russian reciever and barrel and trunion. One sweet machine. Its my go to gun.

I have one, it's a great, straight shooting rifle. I take mine hog hunting frequently.

The SGL 20 is missing the bayonet lug..

Other than that it's the same as an SGL 21

My SGL20 is not missing the bayonet lug but is missing the accessory lug on the gas block. It also came new with a 30 round Bugly mag where the 21 came with the 5 round mag IIRC.

I think the value is about the same, just depends if you want one. I think the SGL series over time may be worth more that the more abundant AR.

As others have said the 20 is missing the accessory lug.  It also has an older style Bulgarian 74 FSB instead of the correct Russian one.

All the ones I have seen also have a completely smooth top cover. No rib around the bottom edge, totally smooth.  And the paint was not as smooth as current SGL rifles, gritty.

The new SGL-21 with the FIME name on it is a very nice Russian Arsenal rifle with a very nice finish.
