5, 10, 15, and 20. Galil mags can be modified to work as well.

For those that aren't familiar with the Veprs, they are basically the Cadillacs of the AK platform rifles. Heavy duty RPK reinforced receivers, heavy duty chrome lined fluted target barrel, integral compensator, chrome-lined guts, etc...

The Super Veprs are 1 MOA.

Well..the SLR-107 didn't work out. Budsgunshop.com has horrible service so I canceled my order when they decided they still didn't have time to ship it yet, days after their (3-7 day processing time).....
So, I went shopping around today and at the end of the day I found myself at Mustang Pawn & Gun. Sitting on the back wall was a very interesting rifle. The VEPR 308 with a side scope mount and an original Russiam VOMZ P4x32 scope. The gun has a 20" bbl and walnut stock in perfect condition. The thick 1.5mm receiver, RPK trunnion, and heavy barrel was a plus but the thing that made me take it home was the super smooth solid action of this tank of a rifle. Cadillac of Kalashnikov rifle for sure.

So I ended up getting a VEPR 308 and as I was walking out I remembered this thread.
I am VERY VERY happy with this gun. I'm glad budsgunshop customer service agents are rude or I would of never of found this awesome Russian deer slayer.

That is a beautiful rifle! AK's have always been functional, but also quite ugly, while that one is about as good-looking a semi-auto as I've ever seen. If it shoots as good as it looks, you'll have a winner. I hope you don't have much longer to wait...enjoy!

BEAUTIFUL! You need to put a POSP scope on that!

**mightymouse** · 08-11-2012, 10:16 PM

I said it before, and I'll say it again, that is a beautiful rifle!! The forend styling reminds me of the HK SL (self-loading) sporting rifles of the mid-to-late 1980s. Thanks for the pics, and happy shooting!

It is an incredibly comfortable stock. Just feels so natural, the thumb hole and the contours are perfect IMO. The fore end texturing is really something else. It's almost like a custom stippling job. I've never seen anything like it on wood. I'll have to take some closeup of that tomorrow in better lighting.

Shooter that was a "used" rifle? She looks practically unfired! Huge score especially with the included mount and scope! If you don't mind me ask, how much did your Vepr run you back?
