The Century Arms VSKA delivers reliable AK-47 performance with American-made construction and modern manufacturing standards. This 7.62x39mm rifle combines traditional Kalashnikov design with enhanced components for consistent accuracy and durability.
What Makes This Different
The VSKA features a 100% American-made receiver and barrel assembly, manufactured using modern CNC machining and heat treatment processes. Unlike imported variants, this rifle incorporates a chrome moly steel barrel with proper heat treatment and a slant compensator for improved muzzle control. The heat-treated steel bolt carrier group undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure reliable cycling and longevity.
Key Features
- Chrome moly steel barrel with slant compensator reduces muzzle rise and flash signature
- Heat-treated steel bolt carrier group provides consistent cycling and extended service life
- RAK-1 Enhanced Trigger Group delivers improved trigger pull and reset characteristics
- Synthetic polymer stock and grip offer weather resistance and durability
- Standard AK-pattern magazine compatibility accepts most 7.62x39mm magazines
- Side-mounted optics rail allows mounting of scopes and red dot sights
- Manganese phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance in harsh conditions
Field performance demonstrates consistent accuracy with various ammunition weights, typically achieving 2-3 MOA groups at 100 yards with quality ammunition. The rifle functions reliably in adverse conditions including sand, mud, and temperature extremes. The 16.25-inch barrel length provides good velocity retention while maintaining maneuverability for tactical applications and hunting scenarios.
