traintrax 12 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I know that this was a topic of discussion early on when the Vepr-12 first got here but was there ever a solution? I have a Kobra red dot on my Vepr and I get FTEs unless I place it as far back on the rail as possible. Unfortunately that is not a very good position and I would prefer it all the way forward. Any ideas? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G O B 3,516 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Use a side mount that is offset to the left. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mullet Man 2,114 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Common issue. Seems to be two fixes that ice read. 1, gradually move optic back on the rail until it feeds. 2, buy a smaller optic like an H1/T1 or Vortex SPARC or mini holographic sight. Vepr12's don't have a side rail, its a dust cover 1913 rail. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sdustin 578 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Ive seen pics of the polymer rail separating from the cover at the front when someone ran a t1 at the most forward position. So watch out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
