Although KVAR has these new Aresenal models in stock, I did not find them in either of their SHOT Show booths. And while they aren’t drastically different from previous rifle configurations, both guns will appeal to AK lovers. Below are the two new SLR107 and SAM7 models

The SLR107-11P will attract budget-minded buyers – an Arsenal for sub $900 is an excellent buy. Whereas  the new SAM7SFK-72 is a bit pricier, however a factor Arsenal SBR can be highly sought after.
