The heart of this GF5 model is its fully hammer-forged bolt, carrier, and front trunnion, engineered for long-term reliability under hard use. PSA’s cold hammer-forged chrome-lined barrel offers excellent barrel life and corrosion resistance while retaining the original M24×1.5 RH threads for muzzle devices or suppressor mounts.
A Soviet Arms aluminum handguard with M-LOK slots and a full-length Picatinny top rail provides ample real estate for lights, grips, and other accessories without adding unnecessary weight. The hinged railed dust cover integrates a rear notch sight and maintains optic zero when opened for cleaning.
The stamped-steel receiver wears a durable black oxide finish and carries Triangle GF5 proof symbols that signify PSA’s latest generation of in-house AK components. A Magpul MOE AK grip improves ergonomics, while the 5.5 mm rear trunnion accepts the side-folding triangular steel brace for compact transport.
Fully 922(r) compliant and built entirely in the United States, this pistol offers AK authenticity with modern upgrades, making it a compelling choice for shooters who want battle-proven design in a compact, accessory-ready package.
