  1. Atlantic should release something soon, or else there's always <choke> gunbroker. One on there now actually.
  2. You should call, it could be a misprint. Not seeing a MD restriction on the Akdal. http://centerfiresystems.com/about-us.aspx
  3. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like a US made: trigger group, muzzle device, pistol grip, & gas puck will put you at 10, even with a Russian mag. http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/40698-yet-another-922r-calculator/
  4. Looks like I snagged one of the last ones at royal tiger this AM. website now says 1 available. I take it that you fellas have been getting straight optic rails on this batch, yes?
  5. Show me the weld. How hard is that?
  6. Bingo! I didn't even have to read the article. Kind of like what this Jabba the Slut did... http://www.campusreform.org/blog/?ID=4731 Or this allegedly batshit crazy lesbian did... http://www.cnn.com/2012/08/21/justice/nebraska-hate-crime/
  7. Put me down for the Flaming Liberal Martyr theory on that one. Ever seen the movie, The Life of David Gale? An annoyingly self righteous storyline, but it does explore the mindset.
  8. If they think they need to hide the weld. They can keep them.
  9. Not a problem as in...they lock in, and feed shells as well as the others?
  10. And with the genuine Molot 8rd mags available right now, you guy's should be all set.
  11. Certainly not. And a good opportunity for the aftermarket manufacturers.
  12. It was probably a cheesy concession for importer pricing concerns. Perhaps the steel rail option is a $150+ upgrade? Who knows. I doubt it will affect me with the T1 and Kobra, but its not milspec in my opinion. Sometimes you gotta call a spade a spade.
  13. Mine showed up MIA, but I'm deployed now and can't look. It is very considerate of you to make the effort.
  14. I might have to go with the Saiga 030 series. A factory folding stock for the Saiga is much more readily available.
  15. Contact "Tantal" on theakforum. He may still have some replacement switches for sale.
  16. Good to hear the Kobra works. I bought a lever mount for my EKP-8-02 just for use on the vepr 12 and 030.
  17. I believe that 922r will kick in with just a folder or collapseable stock regardless of a 5rd limited mag. Anyone that knows different feel free to make a correction.
  18. I feel bad now for calling your inner adapter names. It's just that I want to be able to bash my buttstock repeatedly against a tree if I felt like it. I'm batshit crazy like that. I understood that the design choice was made in part due to the inherent variations in AK dimensions. Hard to get around it without producing multiple inner adapters. When I get back stateside and can make my preferred stock interface that mates with the Vepr12 I will post it here. I'm pretty sure you already know what it will look like.
  19. First, get it. Sucks I know, but don't sweat the small 15% stuff. With one stroke of Obama's pen the imports can be stopped cold. When that happens the Vepr and the like will be unobtanium until an import ban is lifted...If ever. Bitch later.
  20. I thought about delrin, but decided the potential for compression and/or distortion on such a thin part would be unacceptable. Maybe it will work fine in practice, I dont know.
  21. Looks very nice. i was tinkering around the house today and made a simple spacer for the adapter. The 1/8" alum flat I used was a little on the thick side and spaces the stock off the receiver by about a millimeter or so, but I think the idea is sound. If someone wanted to spend an hour wetsanding it until the rear adapter barely fits flush with the receiver I think it would look nice and moreover put the recoil stress back on the rear trunnion where it belongs. I still plan on making a whole new internal piece because I dislike the 2 screws, so these are no use to me. If you or mutt w
  22. The one I got from Atlantic didn't have the Vepr12 Manual and the spare mag I purchased. I let them know right away and did get sent the missing mag.
