Any VEPR owners?

[cobber]

I'm looking at one of these, just a couple of questions.

Can you use standard AK mags with the VEPR?

Are they really that much more accurate than other AKs?

If not a VEPR, what AK? Or just another SKS and be done with it?

The standard VEPR can't use AK mags without modification but on Atlantic Firearms website there's a VEPR MD2 that looks like it uses regular AK mags. I don't have one so I can't say if they are more accurate, but they do use a heavier receiver and barrel.

The stock Veprs have to be modded to accept high capacity magazines. Robinson Arms was one of the first custom shops to tackle the Vepr.

I have owned custom Robinson Arms and stock Veprs over the years. Yes, they are heavy in a few respects and are basically a cut down version of a RPK and are available in several calibers.

Heavy duty and good shooters. Look at Warrior Talk.com (One Source Tactical). They sell custom versions in a few calibers.

I am sorry I sold mine. Good luck in your quest.
