Squishy 1,149 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) You know how it goes, something catches your eye, you look...and look and next thing you know you gotta have one. I understand there isn't a surplus of Vepr 54r rifles at this time for whatever reason. I've seen some on GB but not anywhere else for the most part. I see there are "I Want One" threads in this sub forum. Are these at an end as far as importation? Is it a "bite the bullet and pay the price" situation? Do I just need to get past the "cheap ammo" thing and get a .308? Enlighten me (if you don't mind). Oh, and I have a Mosin already.

David Mark 2,452 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I have been drooling over the Vepr 54's Atlantic is advertising. Just can't justify the expense right now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squishy 1,149 Posted November 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I have been drooling over the Vepr 54's Atlantic is advertising. Just can't justify the expense right now. I have my eye on the ones they spruced up and almost pulled the trigger but an ex-Army sniper instructor I know steered me toward a Remington 700 SPS Tactical which only comes in a right handed model which isn't necessarily a prohibitive factor...I didn't go that way yet either. I understand a 54r and the Remington are two different things. I just like the idea of a more potent round than the x39 in semi auto (and cheap ammo doesn't hurt either). I did the "Notify Me" thing on the Atlantic site for the Vepr "Tactical", more are supposed to be available late this month or early next month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Squishy 1,149 Posted December 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2013 I did the "Notify Me" thing on the Atlantic site for the Vepr "Tactical", more are supposed to be available late this month or early next month. It looks like these are available now but I haven't gotten a notification. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Atlantic Firearms.com 170 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 All customers that signed up to be notified via email have been sent an alter letting them know they were in stock . If you did not get one it is possible you were not signed up or possibly the email went to spam ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squishy 1,149 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I went through the process however it was laid out at the time. I guess anything is possible but I keep a close eye on everything that comes to my spam folder because it has happened that non spam, important mail has come to it. Moot point anyway, I got a 20.5" square back from you about a week ago. I just posted it mainly for the benefit of others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
