Do we know if "normal" AK handguards will work on these? 19" barrel right? Reports from the Russians, such as PapaZ, is that no - AK Handguards do not fit. Unknown if they can be fitted, I imagine it will vary from system to system. There are specific handguards made that fit the Vepr 12 but most are not in the US. Someone linked a one that would fit a Vepr 12 available in the US, but keep in mind not all vepr fitted guards will due to the barrel size on the 12 etc. |

So there is one that i was told would fit. Maybe check out RPK handguards. Also Carolina Shooters Supply is supposed to be testing out the products they carry against the Vepr12 and advising customers what fits/doesn't, etc. |

To those who got the laminated stocks, did it come with a butt plate?

I paid infull and sent the FFL within hours of the deal posting on Atlantic. Tracking number arrived a bit ago. If it doesn't make it Friday, my FFL is closed until Tuesday.

My laminated stock is in really nice shape (looks new) and I actually like the black stain. Had I not wanted a collapsible stock on mine, I would have thrown a polyurethane finish and some hardware on the laminated stock and used it.

Poor phone service, placed an order for the Vepr 12 last week. Checked my Atlantic account for an update but there was no information. Called to confirm they received the FFL I am having it shipped too, and to order Mags.
That was my first time calling, and my last. When buying stuff I like to be able to follow up on my orders via phone without getting treated poorly. |

I've never called on the phone, but at least one person the have repping them on another internet forum is dismissive and even arrogant about customer service issues. I guess it doesn't surprise me to learn that poor attitude bleeds over into phone service as well. |

If you are unhappy with your order with our firm will be glad to offer a full refund on the order . We have Russian 5 & 8 round mags in stock the US SGM 10 & 12 Round mags are unfortunatley on hold because SGM wanted to tweak out the design. We hope to see them in the next 7-10 days .

My only complaint is that I just now got my shipping notice and I see these other kids posting their VEPRs and how it looks freaking awesome. (Not really a complaint but just because I WANT to be the first kid with the new toy!) |

I have never had a problem with them. Like most I want my new toy also, but the value add Atlantic is providing with the stock is worth it, plus the mag for those of us that pre-ordered under the deal.
The US mags not being ready isn't a surprise. If they were, I'd expect them to have problems. |

I just think they could have a better attitude about servicing their customers. When someone brings up such issues, instead of trying to understand how they might improve communications and therefore customer satisfaction - instead they take a 'we don't give a F attitude, and if you don't like how we do things take your money elsewhere' I am not denying that is their prerogative, but I think it's a piss poor business practice. |

We installed a Tromix Shark Brake on the demo unit we tested and were pleased with it , the threads were nice & clean . You guys & gals are really going to love this gun . The are well balanced and cycled our low brass bird shot load like champ ! We have been offering the Saiga 12 for years and it has been one of our favorite guns but the Vepr has now replaced it.

We filled up a FEDEX truck today with Vepr 12 orders and will continue to ship out more on Thurs and should have them wrapped up Friday morning for customers that have made full payments and sent in their ffl info. Once SGM has the 10 & 12 round mags ironed out late next week they will drop ship the mags directly to customers for us .
If any customers have Questions on their order please feel free to email [email protected] or [email protected] |

We only took a few with wood because the finish was thin and the stock were missing butt plates & sling swivels , some had nicks & scratches . We did purchase approx 40 of the best stock sets out of the bunch and have them listed on our web site as a option if a customer really wants the wood. Please note there are no returens or exchanges on the wood and we are making you aware of the finish issues etc
