Which Arsenal AK to get?

[mi4]

I almost bought a sam7r-61c last weekend, but figured that it would be hard to remove the Arsenal maglock (going to convert it featureless with grip wrap) and the removal of it would void the warranty. So I decided to get a non-CA model and install a regular AK maglock. So which one to buy? sam7r-66, sam7r-61, sam7r-65, sam7SF, or sam7uf. Personally I prefer fixed stock with traditional handguard, so maybe 61 or 65? But I would like to hear and appreciate different opinions.

Which one...

I like the Sam7UF. Great Company "Arsenal" and I like the old-timey look and feel of the folder. California model available I think.
I saw a video on youtube, Military Arms Channel guy did a review.

I have the SAM7R-61. Absolute joy to shoot and not a single malfunction.

Try to get an SGL from your LGS if there's any remaining in stock. Mine had a few, but its gone up like crazy ($1499!!!)

I heard that Sam7 is better than SGL. Is it true?

I had a SAM7R and LOVED it. It was too heavy for me though.

I am pretty sure Parallax Tactical in San Diego had AK47 Arsenal Sam7 4 days ago.

SAM7R-61 or SAM7R-51 depending on the buttstock u like. 65 is just a flash suppressor added I think and the 66 a Picatinny handguard. Or a used SGL21

Is it 61 or 61c?

only difference is the factory installed maglock

Factory maglock is hard to remove when converting to featureless, right?

There were a couple 7R's there, 2 at Turners Morena and few at AO Sword (UF, SF, 7R66).

I too prefer a fixed stock; so just 7R for me.
