This materials set is designed for durability and reliability in an AKM-pattern build. The receiver is marked with VSKA and CENTURY ARMS GEORGIA, VT.
The barrel is 16.25 inches of 4150 chrome-moly steel and is threaded 14x1 mm LH, ready for standard 14x1 LH-compatible devices. The metal surfaces wear a uniform manganese-phosphate finish.

Classic AK sighting is retained with iron sights and an AK tangent rear sight. A left-side optics mounting rail is present on the receiver for side-rail-compatible mounts. Blonde wood handguards with ventilation slots complete the traditional look while aiding heat dissipation.
This VSKA is chambered in 7.62x39 with a 30+1 capacity and uses standard AK-pattern magazines. It operates via a semi-automatic, gas-operated long-stroke piston system and is built in the United States.
