Nothing fancy, bought it in 03. Damn fine rifle, but I may be selling it shortly as I don't use it.

I'll play. My two .308s.

My '99 rifle. Changes are coming for this rifle. I like the thumbhole stock with the Karsten cheek rest a lot but want to try something else.



My new .308. It's currently sitting on the sidelines, waiting it's turn.


A 9mm might expand to .45, but a .45 will never shrink to 9mm.

I'll play too. VEPR .308. The scope is a VOMZ 4x, but I'm really diggin the dragunov reticle, so I think I'll keep it on. Need to get a muzzle break though.

I shoot mine frequently. It's one of the most pleasurable AKs that I shoot.
The adjustable ACE stock has a great feel and height...and clears the action.
With all of the mods it comes to 6 pounds loaded.
True that it's front heavy but doesn't bother me for what I use it for,
weights about the same as any of my Romy builds with wood furniture.
......as opposed as to what the internet haters (from my ignore list) may say.

I love my Vepr! It needs a .308 big brother, though.

Robinson Vepr K in 7.62x39 bought back in the day. It's great that it's worth much more now, but this one is never going anywhere.

Very nice. You are the inspiration for beginning the process to get one in 7.62x54R.

I wish I could have snagged one of those pistol grips before they ran out at K-var.

Thanks for the pics!

That's awesome.

Did you have any trouble threading the barrel? Did you have to remove the front sight to do it? What flash hider did you use?

no magpul/or robarm plastic here it screws up a fine looking rifle imho, I would like some sort of lightweight options though because with a scope this thing is a beast at 11lbs.

.308 VEPR II. This was something of a holy grail gun for me:







Also have a VEPR II in x39. Both are great guns.

Did a little work on .308 number two. Added a MI scope mount, Warne rings, Mueller Tac II 3-10x44 scope, ITC cheekrest, and a Russian sling. QD rings on a QD mount is redundant, but I already had them from a previous rifle and they were the perfect height for this application.

How do you like the MI scope mount compared to the Molot mount? I currently have an Eotech mounted on the Molot, but am always looking for a lighter, lower combo.

Molot flash hider, installed at the factory. Appears to be pressed on.

I really like the MI mount, the ADM clamp rocks, brilliant idea. Weight savings is marginal, although I haven't weighed them side-by-side, I don't believe the MI mount is a whole lot lighter than the Molot. As I expected, the lower MI mount forced me to go with taller rings to clear the RSB versus the Molot mount. Didn't gain anything going with a lower mount, but I wanted to try a different mount just to keep it interesting.
