Maybe some of you knew this…
So I recently had the opportunity to purchase a new VSKA AKM with a forged trunnion for a good price. Shots like a dream and it’s not like I plan to put 10000 rounds though it. Heck, I have a Glock I’ve had for 20+ years and I doubt I have anywhere close to that… Anyways… I was criticized for picking it up because it’s not up to the standards of the AK snobs. Then I was told I should have picked up the new DPMS Anvil. With a long winded discussion on how I was going to pick up a PSA AKM but this one came along I got the… PSA sucks, their AKM’s and AR ar subpar. If you wanted American made I would have ordered a DPMS etc. with a little research and a TX, I found out what I thought was true, DPMS and PSA are basically the same company and manufacturing since DPMS was bought by JJE Capital Holdings in the Remington bankruptcy. I was told that the Anvil is just a PSA with a DPMS stamp and that is the same with the AR’s.
