Century Arms VSKA RI3291N AK-Pattern Rifle 7.62x39mm

Century Arms VSKA: American-Made AK Reliability

The VSKA represents a thoughtful approach to the modern sporting rifle—built in the USA with materials and construction methods proven in demanding conditions. This is a rifle for shooters who understand that quality fundamentals matter.

Construction and Materials

Century Arms engineered the VSKA with durability as the primary objective:

• S7 Tool Steel Carrier and Trunnion: Heat-treated S7 steel is the same material used in chisels and jackhammer tips. It resists shock and compression while maintaining toughness—exactly what a rifle carrier demands.
• Carburized 4140 Steel Bolt: Precision-machined for reliability and longevity.
• Chrome-Moly 4150 Barrel: The 16.25-inch barrel features a slant compensator and delivers the ballistic performance you expect from 7.62x39mm.
• 1.5 Mil Stamped Steel Receiver: Traditional construction that has proven itself across generations.

Features and Ergonomics

The VSKA balances tradition with practical improvements:

• RAK-1 Trigger Group: A refined trigger that breaks cleanly without excessive take-up.
• Black Synthetic Stock and Fore-End: Lightweight polymer furniture reduces overall weight while providing a modern appearance.
• AKM-Compatible Furniture: Accepts standard AK-pattern accessories for customization.
• Large T-Shaped Magazine Catch: Intuitive controls that work reliably under any condition.
• Side-Scope Rail Ready: Prepared for optic mounting without permanent modifications.
• Includes One 30-Round Magazine: Ready to shoot out of the box.

The Right Foundation

The VSKA Synthetic is built for shooters who want a solid platform for customization. Whether you're exploring the AK platform for the first time or building a specialized rifle, this American-made foundation delivers the reliability and durability you need.
