The Century Arms VSKA 7.62x39mm Rifle is a heavy-duty AK-style rifle engineered for durability, performance, and classic styling. Designed with the modern shooter in mind, the VSKA (pronounced “vis-kuh”) incorporates upgraded internals and robust materials, making it one of the most rugged AK variants available in today’s market. This model features a 16.25-inch chrome moly 4150 steel barrel, finished with a classic AK slant compensator for reduced muzzle rise. The standout aesthetic comes from its gorgeous American Maple wood stock and handguards, blending traditional craftsmanship with advanced engineering.
Built Tough with S7 Tool Steel and Enhanced RAK-1 Trigger
Century Arms redefined durability with the VSKA by utilizing machined S7 tool steel—a shock-resistant steel often used in industrial applications—for critical components like the bolt carrier, front trunnion, and feed ramp. These parts are heat-treated to deliver extreme wear resistance and structural strength. The bolt is made from carburized 4140 steel, ensuring longevity and consistent reliability. The RAK-1 Enhanced Trigger Group further enhances the shooting experience with a crisp, clean trigger pull that sets this rifle apart from standard AKs.
This semi-automatic rifle is built around a stamped metal receiver with a black phosphate finish, providing corrosion resistance while maintaining the rugged AK appearance. Whether you're on the range, prepping for defense, or collecting AK-pattern firearms, the VSKA offers everything you want in a modernized AK—tough construction, reliable function, and refined aesthetics.
