The 5.56x45 rifle is a blend of high-quality, authentic features, earning it immense popularity in the American market. With its intermediate-length trapdoor buttstock and removable muzzle device, all components of the SAM5 are designed for decades-long dependable and accurate service. This makes the SAM5 rifle a much sought-after and highly collectible firearm.

The SAM5 rifle's receiver is milled from a hot-die hammer forged receiver blank by the renowned Arsenal Co. of Bulgaria. Unlike other milled-receiver AKs that are machined from bar stock, Arsenal's adopts a more intricate hot-die hammer forging process which yields stronger and finer-grained steel. This eliminates internal voids and cooling deformations courtesy of the 5-ton hammer forging process. The forging and milling process takes over 5.5 hours and is complex and time-consuming but Arsenal’s meticulous attention to detail results in a receiver of unparalleled strength, precision, and durability.
