Century Arms RI4388N VSKA Trooper 16.5" 31-Round Folding Stock Pistol

The Century Arms RI4388N VSKA Trooper 16.5" 31-Round Folding Stock Pistol represents a modern take on the proven Kalashnikov platform, engineered for operators who demand reliability without compromise. This rifle-caliber pistol fills a distinct tactical role—bridging the gap between compact personal defense weapons and full-size rifle systems. Built on decades of AK-pattern heritage, the VSKA Trooper delivers the accuracy and firepower needed for close-quarters engagement, vehicle operations, or backup capability in professional security and civilian defensive scenarios.

The RI4388N features a 16.5-inch barrel optimized for velocity retention and shot placement at intermediate distances, paired with a 31-round detachable magazine that ensures sustained fire capability without frequent reloads. The folding stock design reduces overall profile for transport and storage, critical for vehicle-mounted or covert operations, while maintaining a full-length sight radius and rail space for optics and tactical accessories. Weighing 9.2 pounds, the platform remains manageable during extended tactical evolutions, and the forged and machined construction—hallmarks of Century Arms manufacturing—provides the durability required in demanding field conditions where reliability directly impacts mission success.

Law enforcement tactical teams, military personnel, and civilian operators with AK-pattern experience will find the Century Arms VSKA Trooper an immediately deployable option that leverages familiar manual of arms and aftermarket support. The 31-round capacity and folding stock make it particularly suited for vehicle storage, quick-access scenarios, and operators transitioning from carbine-based arsenals. Compliance verification and local legal review are essential before purchase, as pistol configurations vary by jurisdiction; potential users should confirm federal and state regulations regarding barrel length, overall length when folded, and magazine capacity in their area.
