Mountain Man 20 Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Okay, so I was looking at the 223 Vepr at Centerfire for 699 and I was wondering about the stocks it takes. The guy at Centerfire swears they take a regular AK stock but I was trying to figure out how. I know the Vepr RPK receivers are thicker and usually you have to use a RPK receiver so I was trying to figure out how that works. Granted my experience is limited to my Vepr 12 which I have the Bonesteel RPK Galil Style stock on, that I am refrencing. Can someone help me understand, I got to a point on the phone where we just stalemated because the guy couldn't explain how or why they took regular stocks, just that they did. I am 100% okay with being wrong I just want to know why, thanks for the help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In my experience, they do not fit without modification. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
