About the KCA

Our website is for members only.
We are not actively recruiting new members.

    We are experts in Russian and other Soviet firearms and ammunition (AK47). Our association has members all over the world, of all ages and from all walks of life. We all share a serious interest in the history, development, and design of the famed Kalashnikov assault rifle, the AK-47 and it's variants.

    Members of the KCA have toured the Russian weapons factories on private tours and have met with Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov a number of times. The KCA has been featured in many publications published in the United States, Russia and other countries. Members of the KCA have appeared as experts in the field on cable television productions and members regularly sponsor military training and weapon familiarity courses for our armed forces.  The KCA has met with and worked with US AK47 rifle and parts manufacturers to produce more true to spec versions of their US made parts.

   We can provide consultation and expert testimony for issues including Russian and Soviet weapon design, history, toolmarks, ballistics and forensic testing, serial number tampering and restoration, and performance.
