The Molot VPO-913 is a decommissioned version of the SKS rifle, produced by Russian firearm manufacturer Molot-Oruzhie. It's unclear if these are new production, or if they are simply refurbished surplus SKS rifles which are then decommissioned, or both. The latter seems most likely, though. Probably similarly to the VPO-208 series of "shotgun", also from Molot.
According to the photos on the Molot website (shown on this page), these rifles do appear to feature Molot's markings, fresh bluing, and what is most likely a new stock - the latter which varies considerably from surplus Russian military SKS stocks.
