Low inventory.. I don't want to sell out at a discount. I'll do a sale on them in the spring for tax time when we make the next run. It's tax time! +1

Drops in without any mod on VEPR rifle.. The only caveat is the VEPR 12.

I put my 5.45 handguard on my 308 with no fitting if that helps.

Looks nice. I am doing a VEPR 7.62x39 now. Just waiting on Dinzag for some of the parts. Any chance on getting a close up picture of the stock and the DPH adapter? I am working on getting the wood stock that they put on VEPR 12 to fit on my 7.62. It is pretty close. I had to file some off the DPH adapter to get it look flush with the receiver. I have been working on re-contouring the stock because the bottom and sides hang past the receiver. I tried using a Romanian laminate wood stock, but the sides and bottom of the stock were bellowing over the receiver. I ended up contour sanding

I just got my 7.62x39 Vepr from Centerfire. They sold out fast. I was looking for type type 01 for a long time, and then I saw them for $499. I said thank you lord baby Jesus!

Csspecs, are you still producing these floor plates? -
What color stain did you use on your furniture? Looks awesome.

Looks nice. What brand lower handguard retainer did you use?

Converting Saiga 12 AGP Gen 3, rock-and-lock mags to work in the new V
warthog984 replied to Skoodge's topic in Vepr-12
I modified a AGP mag today. The two spots that it rubs on the magwell are the two upper screw points on the magazine. I sanded them pretty good. I was trying to be cautious on sanding too much off and removing material until the screw shank was showing. The bolt hold open is totally recessed into the magazine. I don't see anyway it could be modified to work. I think if you made a new bolt hold open lever with an extended arm, it could work in conjunction with raising the follower. Lots of ifs. -
Did you have to slam to get the mag to lock initially? My fixed stock VEPR12 had a mag release that was a lot tighter than my folder. I assume you are using the mag that come with the gun. When did you buy the gun? Sounds like a huge QC issue. Where did you purchase it from. Not sure if you can get a replacement at this point with the sanctions. I have had AK47 mags get that tight Yugo mags. It sounds like the mag catch needs adjusted. I removed my mag catch recently and filed it down to match my other VEPR12. I was able to do without removing the mag well. I did have a hell of a

I am a little confused by the stock recoil spring tensions listed in this post. I know you can use 1911 springs for your Vepr or Saiga 12. I also know the standard weight for a 1911 is 16 lbs. Am I reading this correctly that the stock weight for a Saiga/Vepr 12 is also 16l bs? I was under the impression that it was anywhere from 20-22 lbs for stock recoil springs for Saiga/Vepr 12. It seems this has come up on tons of posts, but nothing concrete.

I just tried removing the plastic mag well today. What a PITA. The pin is extremely tight in the mag catch and will not come out. I have to got to Home Depot and get a new screw driver to grind for the nut and a new punch. I destroyed my punch trying to get that damn thing out.

I assume you removed the mag release to file it. Is that correct? Did you have to remove the mag well too?

I was curious what everyone's magazine releases look like on their VEPR 12s. I have a side folder and a fixed stock and they are two different types. The one pictured below was from the fixed stock. The mag catch is shaped similar to an AK47 style with a U channel. Here is the other mag catch from my side folder. It looks similar to a Saiga 12. The reason I ask is the side folder mag release seams to be smoother when I insert a mag. The fixed stock mag latch seem to be a little longer and I need to remove material from the mag to get it to lock into place. Not a huge deal

You have peaked my interest. But the funny thing is I am trying to get it to cycle bulk pack ammo first. Seems like a lot of people have no issues with bulk ammo, but mine is finicky.
