SGM 217 Posted October 19, 2012 Report Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hey Guys, I just wanted to give a update on the 10 & 12 round magazines we are making for the Vepr Shotguns. We are going to be running a few days behind on shipping them. I went and test fired them today and we are not 100% happy with the fit. They do work with the LRBHO but the fit in the gun is not to our standards, I do apologize for the delay but we do not want to release a product we are not be happy with. So hang in there for a few more days and hopefully by the end of next week we will be fully stocked and shipping to our distributors. Thanks for the support and hope you guys understand. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

alternety 7 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 Does that mean that the ones being shipped from Atlantic will be the ones you don't like or are they delaying shipping? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atlantic Firearms.com 170 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 We will ship the shotguns out as planned and then the mags will be sent seperatley once SGM feels comfortable with the fit etc of the mag . We are glad they want it 100% perfect and the delay only looks like it will be 1 week . 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alternety 7 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) Great. Good decision. Since it will cost you to ship separately, it again displays your concern for your customers. Edited October 20, 2012 by alternety 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PapaZorro 401 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Maybe you'll make something like these made by Orlandi for Vepr-12? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SGM 217 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 As stated in many various threads many times, we will not be making polycarbonate magazines anytime soon. It takes a order of 1,000 or more to make it worth doing, just ask the distributors how long it took them to sell them and that will answer why they will not order them. PapaZoro interesting looking magazine but our mag bodies are all a 40-60% glass so the polymer is one solid piece screws would be required. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ms33837 33 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Any news on when they will be ready to ship. I hate loading 5 rounds at a time every 10 seconds 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VEPR12 11 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Make lots of them, especially the 10 rounders...then maybe vendors will be able to keep them in stock, or even better try and be competitive on price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Philemon9130 3 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Any update on these mags? I'm almost thinking Pauly might have his rock & lock conversion kit ready sooner. Not that I'm looking forward to giving up the mag well and LRBHO, but 5 rounds at a time makes for tons of reloading. Plus rock & lock conversion opens up the possibility of drums too. Thanks!

hdskumm 39 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I was wondering about plastic welding together some factory 5's to make some 8's or 9's. I don't get why molot 8's cost $140, while the 5's are just chopped 8's and are only $40. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
