So I just noticed this.....

This is the repair sheet from Arsenal:

It says my rifle is a SGL20?

I bought my rifle from On Target as a SGL21. When I went in there I told them I wanted a SGL 21 and they handed me "one". I just looked at my receipt and it doesn't say anything about the model number just Arsenal Rifle.

You're right, two weeks isn't a reasonable time frame to have the rifle repaired. But it is well beyond a reasonable time frame to expect the rifle to, at the very least, be in The shipping process.

I am curious where the original five round plastic mag went along with the authentication sight target and manual and paperwork. I received all this with mine but Taylor did not which is what red flag

To my knowledge I have never heard of a manufacturer that claimed the warranty period starts the second it leaves their doors. I always figured it was understood it started from the date of purchase b

Does it have the accessory lug on the gas block behind the bayonet lug? If it does, sgl21. If not, sgl20.

Really doesn't matter if it's there or not. It's sole purpose is to mount the russian grenade launcher, which you cannot buy.

The 15 yard one was one grouping. The 25 yard was some rapid fire also. The 15yd was all free hand. 25yd was some free hand and some bench. These were from yesterday after I picked my rifle up from being repaired.

Also the front sight is definitely a new sight. The rear sight also looks brand new.

I could live with that. Actually not bad at all for rapid fire IMO.

I had this mental image of someone sitting at the bench with a spotting scope and all. Glad this worked out for you.

Throw a Tapco G2 trigger in it and you'll be ready to go.

I've been thinking about it. Do I need the single or double hook one?

Just get a single hook. The second hook is needlessly redundant and doesn't do anything. Plus, your receiver is more than likely a single hook.

+1 on a single hook. Oh, wait. It's a Arsenal. Shouldn't it already have a great trigger at the price they charge? LOL

If the receiver can accept a double hook why not just get one? The price is the same.

As mentioned it should be a moot point for what Arsenal's cost.

All of mine run single hooks, you wouldnt believe the difference they make, trigger pull is probably 3.5 to 4lbs with them, feels about like my Timney in my AR but the G2 has a tiny bit of pre travel.

Latest Update:

Looks like Arsenal got my rifle fixed. They said they fixed a canted front sight. The entire front sight post is definitely new and the rear one also seems to be new.

On Target finally took care of everything, and I set foot for the last time in their store.

After all the hub bub, just knock out the 2 pins holding the front sigth block on, use dead blow mallet to knock the front sight tower to top dead center and re-install pins. That is what Arsenal is going to do. That is what any AK "fix it" shop is going to do. Seen it happen with my own eyes.

You will be surprised at the little amount of movement will do to your point of impact. Just don't hit the front sight ears. Hit it near the base of the tower.

Please don't do this. This is the proper repair method for a canted sight.

Arsenal fixed it already. That was their diagnosis....,,,

I admire the attention to detail, but these aren't precision rifles and that's overkill. There are villages in Afghanistan where 8yr-old kids assemble these damn things.

Send your rifle to Jim Fuller to get fixed. You will get it back with a much lighter wallet and WEEKS later.

If I wanted a true beauty queen AK, I would send it to Jim Fuller to have it built, he does fantastic work. Seen some Krinks done by him. They are really nice.

But to fix a canted sight on a rattle battle? Whack that damn sight tower and call it done, and knock the pins back in. Re-zero and drive on.

If you didn't want it to run "10 pages" then it shouldve been locked or cleaned up?

People keep telling me where to take my rifle so I figured I'd make it clear that it has been fixed once again.
