| Do these have chrome lined bores? |
Check here: www.GlobalTrades.com If its a SSR-85C and it's made on a FEG receiver, it may be a good rifle. If it's a SSR-85C-2 and it's made on a U.S. made receiver, it may NOT be a good rifle. |

Templar, yeah I was getting the two mixed up. Thanks for the info, appreciate it. Last I heard, Global Trades was a solid AK. What kind of problems are they having? What makes Arsenal AK's worth the extra green? Think I might just get a cheap Romanian beater for $329. |
Global has had some serious QC issues as of late. Which models are you asking about as far as the Arsenal Inc. Milled receivers are FAR more expensive than stamped receivers and that's where most of the money goes. |

Current stamped receiver rifles from Arsenal Inc. are 5.45mm and are called SLR-105A1's. They typically run around $575 for one without a rail and about $600 with a scope rail. Arsenal is working on bringing 7.62x39mm AKM's to market (SLR-108's) and a stamped receiver 5.56mm. The SLR-108 should be less than the SLR-105A1 since you don't have to buy an AK-74 front sight block and muzzle brake. |
