Design

The VSK-94 retains the gas-driven operating principle of the 9A-91 with a rotating bolt and hammer fire mechanism. The rifle features a stamped steel receiver, skeletonized polymer stock integrated with the pistol grip and a synthetic forearm. The VSK-94 is equipped with a 4x PSO-1 optical sight and standard flip iron sights from the 9A-91.
The threaded barrel is designed to use a specifically designed suppressor.
The rifle uses 9x39mm ammunition feeding from a 20-round detachable box magazine.
Since the 9x39mm bullet weighs about twice as much as that of the 9×19mm Parabellum, its muzzle energy is about twice as high as that of a subsonic 9×19mm Parabellum bullet fired from an HK MP5SD, for example.
