We put the Arsenal SAM5 through a full review to find out what you actually get from a milled-receiver AK in 5.56: the feel, the accuracy, the quirks, and whether the extra steel is worth the money. The SAM5 comes from Arsenal’s Bulgarian line with a hot-die/hammer-forged, milled receiver and a 16.3" chrome-lined barrel — that milled receiver is the headline here, so we spend extra time testing how it affects shot-to-shot behavior, recoil, and perceived build quality.
I’ll walk you through real-world handling, ergonomics and balance, accuracy at practical ranges, durability and finish, and what the aftermarket looks like for a 5.56 AK built on a milled frame. Expect live-fire drills, slow-motion follow-ups, and a few breakdowns on how the action and parts fit together — then we’ll judge whether milled construction gives you measurable advantages (or just bragging rights).
Finally: price vs. value — milled receivers cost more to produce and add weight, but do they give you smoother fit, better longevity, or tighter tolerances that help accuracy? We’ll score the SAM5 on reliability, ergonomics, accuracy, and overall desirability so you can decide if “milled better” matters to you.
