Arsenal SLR107FR

[Michael762]

So I am picking up my Arsenal slr107fr hopefully next week from Atlantic Firearms. I am wondering if anyone here has them and how do you like it. I can't wait to pick mine up just wanting some input on them also. Thank you.

I don't have an FR but I have a CR version. Absolutely love it second only to my SAM7. You won't be disappointed and if you don't like for whatever reason you won't have trouble selling it. The only thing is that I've really come to prefer the right side folder of the SAM7 to the left side folder on the SLR.

It's my second favorite... Next to an sbr 107UR

I like mine so much, I ordered an SLR 104UR as well. I've had a lot of AK's, it's my favorite by a long shot.

I like mine, only complaint is the spring loaded firing pin but that's more of a personal preference.

Great rifle, I have the 107FR and the 106FR, love them both, I have never had a problem from either one of them.

Did you order it yet? Saw this today. https://www.slickguns.com/product/slr107-31-905?mobile=true

I just got mine a few weeks ago and haven't shot it yet. First impression is I wish the engraving and finish were a little nicer like my SGL. It's also going to take a lot of break in to get as smooth as the SGL. Guess that's not really a fair statement since I haven't even stripped and cleaned it up yet. But it is really well built and one darn good looking rifle. Which stock configuration are you getting?

I will be getting the solid side folder pretty much an AK 103 clone so far I have heard nothing but god things about them so I am excited to get mine!

they are awesome. I have a Krebs 103 clone with the shortened barrel and pinned FH that is the smoothest AK I have ever owned. I am tempted to get a UR and a standard but don't have the fun money to do so. Plus, I paid too much for a Yugo krink side folder that I still need to SBR.

They are fantastic rifles. Add an AKT Trigger and they get even better.

No regrets on getting mine. I liked it so much I went back and got the SLR104UR as well.

Me too, I love the 104. Shoots so smoothly and light, just a shame there isn't much ammo choice for the 5.45

Question to everyone on the forum:
Would there be any interest in a group buy on Lee dies in 5.45x39? Lee has a minimum order for custom die runs. Brass can be made by reforming .223/5.56, dimensions aren't perfect, but others who have custom dies say it works fine. Blemished Hornady bullets are sometimes available from Midway for not a lot of money or you can size down .224 projos using the simple Lee push through sizing dies. This set up would go a long way toward curing the ammo selection problem with 5.45x39 and would undoubtedly lead to better accuracy than the factory stuff currently available.
