"This rifle was professionally converted by experts"

answer they gave a few months ago





The Saiga is converted by the importer (Legion USA) and comes 100% 922r compliant regardless of whether or not you use foreign or U.S. magazines.
The packaging also includes a list of U.S. made compliance parts, which is nice because it takes the guess work out of 922r.

There are some small, mostly cosmetic differences. For example, Arsenals are re-coated in a more matte-dark gray finish and the Saigas have the standard black color found on Saiga sporters. The Saiga AKM also has two rivets above the pistol grip which the Arsenal does not. The stocks are slightly different cosmetically.
They're both built off the same Saiga sporters, take standard AK mags, are 922r compliant, have CHF barrels, etc.
They are both great rifles!

One notable difference:
The California version Saiga AKM includes a Solar Tactical AK magazine lock, whereas the Aresenal SGL-21 includes an Assault Planet AK Bullet Button.
They operate similarly, but the mounting system and appearance are slightly different.

Thanks. Yes, what he said

If I wanted to convert them to featureless, which mag lock is easier to remove?

[Loner]

Solar tactical as it's held in place by hex screws.

[Riflegear]

Solar tactical as it's held in place by hex screws.

That is correct, which is what the factory AKM comes with.
The other maglock that comes with our AKs, the Assault Planet AK-Bullet Button, is also held in place by simple hex screws though.
