Description
This is the real deal when it comes to Bulgarian AK craftsmanship. The Arsenal AR-M14SFT is a factory short barrel rifle chambered in 7.62x39mm, built on Arsenal's milled receiver and wearing a sharp plum polymer furniture set that sets it apart from the usual black and wood crowd. The 8.5-inch chrome lined, hammer forged barrel keeps this thing compact and quick to the shoulder, making it a natural fit for anyone who wants AK reliability in a package that moves fast in tight spaces.
What Sets the AR-M14SFT Apart
Arsenal doesn't cut corners on the receiver. Each one is milled from a hot-die hammer forged blank, a process that produces stronger, finer-grained steel and eliminates internal voids. That forged-then-milled approach takes hours of machining per receiver, and the result is the kind of durability and precision that's made Arsenal rifles a benchmark. You get a front sight and gas block combination, a short gas system, ribbed polymer handguards with a stainless steel heatshield, and a scope rail on the left side of the receiver.
Folding Stock and Trigger on the AR-M14SFT Plum
The tactical right-side folding buttstock is CNC machined from a single piece of aluminum and hard anodized, giving you a lighter, stronger stock with a machined cheek weld groove for a solid fit. It folds to the side to shrink the overall footprint for transport or storage, and the attachment parts are heat treated carbon steel. Feeding the trigger is the FIME Group Enhanced Fire Control Group FM-922EUS, a single-hook setup that delivers shortened travel with a smooth, light pull and is engineered to eliminate the trigger slap you find on a lot of AK builds.
Caliber and Everyday Handling
Chambered in the ever-popular and affordable 7.62×39, this Arsenal runs the same proven cartridge that built the AK's reputation worldwide. The muzzle is threaded 24×1.5mm right-hand and ships with a muzzle nut, and rear QD attachment points sit on both sides for sling flexibility. For folks who appreciate authentic Arsenal engineering with a distinctive look, the plum AR-M14SFT brings serious pedigree and real character to the safe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AR-M14SFT a genuine Arsenal milled receiver?
Yes. The receiver is milled from a hot-die hammer forged blank made by Arsenal of Bulgaria. The forging process produces stronger, finer-grained steel and removes internal voids, and each blank takes hours of machining before assembly. It's the same receiver build that earned Arsenal its reputation for strength and precision.
What kind of trigger does the AR-M14SFT come with?
It ships with the FIME Group Enhanced Fire Control Group FM-922EUS. This is a single-hook design with the trigger, hammer, disconnector, and disconnector springs, delivering shortened travel and a smooth, light pull. It's engineered to prevent the trigger slap common on many AK pattern rifles.
Is the barrel on the AR-M14SFT threaded?
Yes. The 8.5-inch barrel is threaded 24×1.5mm right-hand and comes with a muzzle nut and thread protector. That gives you options down the road if you want to run a compatible muzzle device.
Does the AR-M14SFT have a scope rail?
It does. The rifle features Arsenal's side-mount scope rail on the left of the receiver, which accepts the standard AK side-rail optic mounts. You'll want a compatible AK side-rail mount to attach most optics.
