The VSKA is a stamped, AKM-pattern semi-auto rifle chambered in 7.62x39 and built in the USA. It uses a long-stroke piston system with a separate 90° gas block and a smooth top cover, delivering the classic AK operating design with modern U.S.-made components.
The 16.25 in barrel is 4150 chrome-moly steel and factory threaded 14x1mm LH, capped with a chevron-style muzzle brake. It accepts detachable AKM-pattern double-stack magazines and ships with four 30-round polymer mags for a 30+1 capacity.
Critical components are engineered for durability, including an S7 tool-steel front trunnion, carrier, and feed ramp, paired with a carburized 4140 bolt. The RAK-1 Enhanced Trigger Group provides a crisp, consistent pull. An enhanced selector lever adds a bolt-hold-open notch for convenient range handling and safety checks.
Russian Red maple hardwood furniture and a phosphate finish give the rifle a distinctive look and protective coating. It features adjustable AKM-pattern iron sights with a hooded front post and a tangent rear sight leaf. The stock includes a rear sling swivel, and length of pull is 12.75 in.
