PSA AK-105 Side Folding Pistol – Triangle Brace, Plum Gloss, Toolcraft Forged Components

The PSA AK-105 Side Folding Pistol with Triangle Brace in Plum Gloss delivers a perfect blend of heritage-inspired design, modern American manufacturing, and compact tactical performance. Chambered in 5.45x39mm, this short-barreled AK platform is outfitted with Toolcraft hammer-forged components, a JMAC Customs side-folding triangle brace, and a distinctive plum gloss finish that pays homage to classic Soviet small arms aesthetics.

Inspired by the AK-100 Series Legacy

The AK-105 traces its lineage back to the Russian “Century Line of Rifles” produced in the 1990s. Numbered 101–108, these rifles were developed for export and quickly became respected among AK enthusiasts worldwide. Palmetto State Armory has brought the AK-105 to the U.S. market with improved manufacturing precision, upgraded components, and a 100% full lifetime warranty — ensuring both historical authenticity and modern reliability.

Barrel, Muzzle Device & Performance

At the heart of this pistol is a 12.5″ 4150 steel barrel with a 1:6.5” twist rate for excellent accuracy with 5.45x39mm ammunition. A gas nitride finish increases durability and corrosion resistance. The included Mini Krink Brake effectively reduces muzzle rise while maintaining the signature AK muzzle flash, all while keeping the platform compact. Standard M24x1.5 RH threads allow for future muzzle device customization.

Forged Strength for Longevity

The stamped steel receiver is paired with a hammer-forged 4340AQ front trunnion, hammer-forged bolt, and hammer-forged carrier — all manufactured by Toolcraft, a name synonymous with quality in the firearms industry. This combination ensures the AK-105 can withstand thousands of rounds of high-volume firing without compromise.

Plum Gloss Furniture

Both the handguard and checkered pistol grip are finished in an elegant plum gloss, a color long associated with late Cold War-era Soviet AK rifles. This gives the firearm a distinctive appearance while providing durable, weather-resistant protection.

Triangle Side Folding Brace

The JMAC Customs stock adapter is paired with a plum triangle side folding brace that locks securely in both the extended and folded positions. When extended, the AK-105 measures 33 inches; when folded, it becomes a compact 24.5 inches for easy storage or transport. The folding mechanism is integrated into the brace itself — the side-folding button on the receiver only functions with a traditional 4.5mm stock.

Fire Control & Sighting

A single-stage, single-hook fire control group provides a reliable trigger pull, while the 90-degree combo sight/gas block and 1000-meter rear sight deliver the classic AK sight picture. For optics users, the included side rail optics mount allows for the attachment of traditional AK side-mount scope bases.
