Welcome! And I haven't actually read much about Arginine yet on the boards but I have been reading on it and its involvment in synthesis of Creatine and secretion of Growth Hormone. I wouldn't depend on it as lets say itself a "muscle building" supplement but more of an aid in the breaking down and delivering of protien and creatine. It's an essential Amino Acid, but no amino acid by itself will have the ability to produce muscle; rather the ability to help rebuild muscle.
