Palmetto State Armory, as in the past, quietly added a new Kalashnikov to their already eclectic lineup of popular AKM style rifles and pistols. This time it’s the Palmetto State Armory AK-105. Chambered in 5.45x39mm and featuring a 4.5mm rear folding trunnion, short (12.5in/317.5mm) barrel, and polymer folding stock. This is coming only a few months after they introduced the 7.62x39mm AK-104 which features the same length barrel and folding stock. As of the time of writing only the rifle version with extended muzzle booster, and brace-equipped pistol are live on the website but Palmetto State Armory is sure to introduce all of the same rifle and pistol configurations that are available for the AK-104.

According to Palmetto State Armory’s Website:

The Palmetto State Armory AK-105 continues the forward progress of the American Made AK rifle. Following the unparalleled success of the PSAK-103 and PSAK-104, Palmetto State Armory pushes forward with the 100 Series line of AK Rifles with the PSA AK-105.

The Russian Federation was strapped for cash in the 1990s, which led to the development of what became known as the “Century Line of Rifles”; a series of AKM rifles and carbines designed solely for export. Numbered 101 – 108, the Century Line of Rifles have a special place in the heart of the AK community and come in various configurations and calibers including 5.56×45, 7.62×39, and 5.45×39.

Palmetto State Armory has forged ahead with its version of the AK-105, the PSAK-105. The 100 Series line of AK rifles and pistols combines advances in American manufacturing with Russian weapons lineage to bring about a timeless shooting experience for the purist in you. The PSAK-105 is loaded with features such as a gas nitrided barrel, toolcraft hammer-forged front trunnion, bolt, and carrier, plus a 100% Full Lifetime Warranty.

The PSA AK-105 pistol will allow the AK purist to achieve the historical application of a short-barreled AK rifle with ease. After submitting the necessary paperwork and receiving ATF tax stamp approval, the user may swap the pistol brace for a folding rifle stock by simply removing a single pin and adapter, and dropping the folding stock into place.
