Arsenal, Inc.'s SGL10 (Saiga) Rifle
From the combined effort of Legion Ltd, the custom shop of the legendary Izhmash Factory in Russia, and Arsenal, Inc. of Las Vegas, Nevada comes a new SGL10 (Saiga) rifle in 7.62x39 caliber. Initially manufactured by Legion Ltd in Russia and remanufactured by Arsenal, Inc. in the United States, the new SGL10 rifle has everything that collectors and shooter have been looking for. Hand-select premium components, custom-shop-like attention to details by Legion Ltd, and Arsenal, Inc.'s highest standards of workmanship, give this rifle its superior quality. Arsenal, Inc. remanufactures the SGL10 rifles in the United States with 922r compliant parts and fills them with features not seen on any other factory Saiga rifles. Performing the most difficult modifications to achieve, Arsenal, Inc. has done a substantial work for the customer. The end result is the highest quality SGL10 rifle with the most desired features which have not been available before. This variation of Saiga rifle serves as the perfect platform for the enthusiasts to build many interesting original Russian AK projects, keeping the necessity and cost of replacement components and labor to a minimum. Every unit is laser sighted and test fired. Targets are included with most of the rifles.
Compared to Arsenal, Inc.'s SGL10 rifle, with other Saiga rifles the customer has to purchase over $500 worth of additional parts and components and spend hundreds of dollars on labor, and still will not be able to come close to having a great quality Russian rifle with all the correct markings and features.
The receiver of SGL10 rifle has the proper markings on both sides without any extra commercial markings, including the legendary Izhmash Factory logo, the upward pointing arrow in triangle. The markings on both sides of the receiver are done with the correct font type and size and placed in their proper locations. The receiver of SGL10 features proper magazine dimples on both sides and original "X" and "Y" shaped reinforcement stampings. On the right side, it has correctly positioned notches for the safety lever, marked with letters "S" and "F" and no additional openings at the bottom forward portion of the receiver.
Arsenal, Inc. has replaced number of components so the SGL10 rifle resembles a true Russian AK rifle, including the safety lever with correct shape and properly positioned dimple, the 1000 meter rear sight left, the highest quality Arsenal, Inc. fire control group (hammer and disconnector), original Arsenal Inc mil-spec polymer handguards and retainer for lower handguard, the correct gas tube, original gas block with the correct vent holes and a guide hole for the cleaning rod, correct AK-74 type front sight block with 24x1.5mm right-hand threads and bayonet lug. The rifle comes with a cleaning rod and a US made brand new production muzzle brake (compensator).
