Key Features
- 24.5-inch chrome-lined steel barrel — WHY IT MATTERS: That extra barrel length wrings every bit of velocity out of the 7.62x54R round, giving you flatter trajectories and more retained energy past 400 yards. Chrome lining means you can run corrosive surplus ammo and still get years of service.
- Included 4x fixed-power optic with rail mount — WHY IT MATTERS: You don’t have to hunt down a scope and rings that fit the side rail. This optic is zeroed and ready to go out of the box, saving you time and guesswork.
- Semi-auto action with long-stroke gas piston — WHY IT MATTERS: The same rugged system used on the AK-47 keeps the action running even when the gun gets dirty or dusty. Rapid follow-up shots on moving targets are smooth and reliable.
- Adjustable rear sight and muzzle brake — WHY IT MATTERS: The rear sight lets you dial in elevation out to 1,000 meters, and the muzzle brake cuts recoil noticeably — making it easier to spot your own hits and stay on target.
- 10-round detachable magazine — WHY IT MATTERS: 10+1 capacity gives you enough firepower for multiple threats or a quick follow-up on a running coyote, without making the rifle too heavy to carry all day.
Who It’s For
This rifle is for the rancher who needs to drop a coyote at 500 yards without dragging a bolt gun around. It’s for the rural shooter who wants a semi-auto that reaches out like a sniper rifle but doesn’t cost like one. It’s for anyone who appreciates that the 7.62x54R round is cheap, plentiful, and hits like a freight train.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Affordable compared to true Dragunovs; widely available 7.62x54R ammo; rugged AK-style reliability; included optic saves money; accurate enough for consistent hits on man-sized targets at 600m.
- Cons: The included optic is functional but not as clear as a high-end scope — you may want to upgrade if you shoot past 700 yards regularly. Also, the thumbhole stock won’t fit standard AK pistol grips without modification.

FAQ
Does this rifle come with the optic mounted and zeroed?
Yes. The rifle ships with the 4x fixed-power optic already mounted on the side rail. Per Century Arms specs, it is factory-zeroed at 100 meters, but you should always confirm zero with your preferred ammo before hunting or shooting.
Can I use standard AK magazines in this rifle?
No. The PSL-54 uses its own proprietary 10-round magazines designed for the 7.62x54R cartridge. Standard AK-47 magazines will not fit or function. Spare magazines are available separately.
What kind of accuracy can I expect at 500 yards?
With quality ammunition (like 148-180gr soft point or match loads), expect 2-3 MOA groups at 500 yards. That’s good enough for coyote-sized targets and steel. Surplus ammo will open groups to 3-4 MOA, but still effective for hunting inside 400 yards.
Is this rifle legal to hunt with in all states?
Check your local laws — some states restrict semi-auto rifles for deer hunting, or have magazine capacity limits. The 10-round magazine complies with most state laws, but confirm before you take it afield. Nationwide delivery to all 50 states is available.
