Tackelbarry 0 Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 I have been away for a while because I sold my Saiga 12. Mainly because it did not have the factory bolt hold open. Anyway, I am looking at a VEPR 12 and was wondering, once I make it 922 R compliant, is it meant to be shot and ok to shoot with the stock folded? I have done a few searches and while one said no, the other said yes. Can the experts chime in? Also, any other differences between the VEPR 12 and the Saiga 12 would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
voonman 133 Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 yes it can be shot with the stock folded ...mine for some reason does not like the light loaded white box winchester stuff ..It does however like winchester AA .. federal and the remingtons plus all high brass should cycle through with the stock folded just fine..Just hold it with a very tight grip..here is mine folded and unfolded 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tackelbarry 0 Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Very nice! If I switch the other parts to make the gun 922r compliant, will the stock that is tack welded fold (and stay folded) and then lock back up tight enough for daily use? Thanks again.

voonman 133 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 It should..i dont have any experience with the factory folded stock v12s ..mine works great with the ACE folder..someone who has a factory folded V12 may chime in and might give you a better direct answer..

I'm lopping mine to 12" soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kingchedr 12 Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yes it does I have one with the factory side folder although you might want to add a vertical grip cause its kinda hard to get a good grip when folded Quote Link to post Share on other sites
