From Russia: Airsoft VSS (Vintorez)
James was kind enough to point us to the Airsoft Forum where the pictures and the general presentation of the working airsoft version Vintorez replica. The VSS was custom made by some handy and experienced machinists from Russia, hat's down to the gentlemen. Anyway, read more bellow and check the photos in the GALLERY. Ever since JTG (Jack The Gunsmith) started "offering" the VSS to the airsoft communuty, it was immediately clear it will be a hit, once someone actually makes one...
We are glad to present the result of of tremendous work done to you. I’d like to thank the team of people working on the project. Without them nothing would have happened. I must also say that we were doing a toy machine for airsoft, but not the BCC layout. Moreover, we didn’t have an opportunity to watch a military prototype, because in out town power structures use only VAL and VSK-94, that’s why VSS did on the photos, available to everyone and with an eve to the combat VAL. And if we compare the best airsoft AK and the military pattern, we will find many differences. The point is that this machine gun is not piece-work.
The machine gun is made entirely of steel.
Butt: plywood
Fore: plastic
BCC is stained by two-component epoxi-based paint (there is a blued version)
Weight: 3.4kg with an eye
Basic speed: a basic BCC 130 m/s, but you can put anything you like (within there is herbox – standard AK, that’s why everything, which is suitable to AK, will suit BCC)
Length: 895mm
The number of balls in the store – bunker: 200, tavern on 68sht.
Power supply - LiPo AK type - in the trunk.
Mode of fire - automatic, single.
