The Arsenal Inc SAM7K44 is a Bulgarian-made 7.62x39mm AK pistol built on a hot-die hammer-forged receiver that delivers decades of reliable service in a compact, maneuverable platform. With an 8.5" cold hammer-forged barrel, threaded front sight block (24x1.5mm RH threads in standard Krink configuration), and Picatinny rail for optics or lights, the SAM7K44 is equally at home on the range, in defensive scenarios, or pursuing medium game. This isn't budget-tier surplus—every component is new production, and the receiver itself undergoes over 5.5 hours of precision milling after hot-die hammer forging, a process that eliminates internal voids and produces finer-grained steel than bar-stock machining.
Reliability is the SAM7K44's foundation. The bolt, bolt carrier, and double-hook trigger are all hammer-forged; the bore and chamber are hard-chrome plated for durability and corrosion resistance. The 4-groove barrel twist rate of 1:9.44 stabilizes the 7.62x39 cartridge across the practical velocity range (2329 fps). The ambidextrous safety lever and mil-spec magazine compatibility—5, 10, 30, or 40-round capacity—give you flexibility whether you're building a collection, stocking up for training, or customizing for a specific role. At 5.87 lbs unloaded and 18" overall, the SAM7K44 balances controllability with manageable recoil.
Included in the box: one 5-round magazine, oil bottle, cleaning rod, and basic cleaning kit. The rear peep sight is zeroed to 500 meters, and the rifle will reliably engage targets to 1100 meters in capable hands. If you're seeking a modern, no-compromise AK-pattern pistol with genuine Bulgarian manufacturing heritage and transparent build quality, the SAM7K44 stands apart from the commodity clones flooding the market.
