Pros & Cons
Pros: The forged critical components inspire confidence for long-term use. The Magpul MOE handguard is a major upgrade, offering a better grip and the option to mount lights or lasers. The classic triangular stock folds for compact storage or transport. At $939.99, it represents a solid value for a stateside-built AK with these features.
Cons: The traditional AK platform has a different manual of arms than the AR-15, which may require adaptation for some shooters. The side-folding stock, while classic, may not offer the same cheek weld adjustability as some modern options. Its 30-round steel magazine adds to the overall heft.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Century VSKA compatible with standard AK magazines?
A: Yes. This rifle uses standard AKM-pattern magazines. You can reliably use steel, polymer, or Magpul PMAGs designed for the 7.62x39mm AK platform without modification.
Q: Does the triangular stock lock open and closed?
A: Yes. The classic triangular side-folding stock has positive locking mechanisms in both the extended (open) and folded positions, providing a solid shoulder weld when deployed and a secure, compact profile when folded.
Q: What is the barrel made from, and is it chrome-lined?
A: The barrel is a 16.5-inch hammer-forged 4150 steel barrel with a chrome-lined bore and chamber. This enhances durability, corrosion resistance, and facilitates easier cleaning—a key feature for a rifle built for hard use.
