Arsenal Black Cerakote 4-Piece Flash Hider: A Proper AK Upgrade

Arsenal’s Bulgarian 4-piece flash hider is one of those AK parts that’s earned its reputation through decades of real-world use, not marketing hype.

If your AK uses 24×1.5mm right-hand threads, this is a direct-fit, no-nonsense upgrade that delivers both function and longevity. [Read more…] about Arsenal Black Cerakote 4-Piece Flash Hider: A Proper AK Upgrade

The SAM7K-44 AK pistol is one of the current configurations of the SAM7K system, a platform that has been coming to our shores and enjoyed by Americans for well over a decade.

Arsenal’s Stainless Steel Elevation Wrench is one of those tools most shooters don’t think about until they need it.
