gpqueen 545 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 As the title states, do we know how many Molot has imported now? I would contact Kevin from SGM. He would have a good idea of the total number. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thor's Hammer 33 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I'll throw out a WAG... 2000 1K fixed, 1K folders. Did I win anything?!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
menace667 194 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I have heard that before but with how many i see everywhere i wonder how accurate those numbers actually are. Either there are far fewer of each rifle caliber or fewer people sell them, because by volume i see far fewer rifles for sale than the shotguns it seems. The good part is the resale value seems very high in contrast to those that are more vastly available. Run of the mill weapkns seem to loke 25% on resale immediately (like a car) but the VEPR series seem to be holding strong at almost full value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WUNDERWAFFEN 21 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 From what I recall, there were two shipments with the rough wood stocks. I preordered one from Atlantic as soon as it was mentioned on this forum. I forget what other retailers had them at the time but everyone sold out quickly. And then another shipment or more became available a couple months later. Recently the folders were imported, I ordered one from Royal Tiger Importers at the time because they had them in stock & were currently shipping at that time. I believe Centerfire also had the folders at that point & currently has "limited quantity" listed on their website, Both imported by IO Inc. Atlantic still has not received their 12s but are still taking preorders for them. They posted on the arf industry forum "We expect to ship in the first half of July the rifles have left Russian and are on a slow boat to the US due to hit port around the 3 -5th of July and then will need to clear US customs etc and then ship to the importer warehouse." Imported by Wolf Arms. & Buds now have slant cut Vepr 12s. So my guess would be 2x shipments of crap wood stocked, 2x shipments of folders & 1x shipment of slant cut.

Imported by Wolf Arms... In an email correspondence with atlantic, they told me their veprs hit US shores on the 10th, and they anticipate (based on experience) roughly a 12 day period from there before they have them in hand.

ec4321 113 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Let's hope with multiple importers, etc, the competition will bring more features to the shores. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thor's Hammer 33 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Let's hope with multiple importers, etc, the competition will bring more features to the shores. Agreed. And it would be cool to have Wolf Performance Arms as your importer's mark. But besides a fully metal top rail, what other possibilities are out there? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The metal mag well is nice, a metal top rail, but I know that is doable state side. I have my eye on a crossbolt safety I have seen on some of the models. I think some of the videos also showed some interesting mag releases. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'll have to add them. Adjustable gas system would be nice, but I thought the veprs that had the plug on the front like saigas ran the same as veprs - non-adjustable - the plug was simply there to assist with cleaning?

Papa Z has the "Improved Molot Gas block with plug" I talked to him about finding one but I cannot remember if it is actually adjustable. It is similar to the one on the ISPC version Vepr12 so if you google that you might find out. Here is the link to the original thread on Papa Z's custom Vepr 12's: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/77092-vepr-12-vpo-205-01-custom-edition-project-repost/ Edited July 15, 2013 by Mountain Man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MAKAK47 21 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 well even if it can't come on the guns, just having them shipped as accessories from the factory would be nice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
