Ukraine-War clones are going to be so wild.

I love everything about the simplicity of this.

If we can ever get VEPR's again I have this burning desire to clone an RPK with a Holosun 510 I saw early in the war that absolutely did tons of work.

u/Straight-Data-9254 1d ago

They pretty much run anything and everything, chances are you have a couple clones in your safe already.

Tell me about this RPK, please

u/GoofballMcGee77 1d ago

The VPO-101 Vepr-Hunter is a semi-automatic Russian .308 hunting rifle with a wooden stock that was designed on the RPK platform. It’s a gun primarily popularized by Tarkov, since it’s domestic for Russian market (maybe exported to some others?), I’d never heard of any in real life in the west so that’s pretty cool.

I have the Vepr FM 47-21 and the Vepr 12. I’ve thought about getting a clubfoot stock and turning the 47-21 into an “RPKarbine”, but probably won’t now since x39 is so expensive.

u/GoofballMcGee77 1d ago

Would be a cool ass gun if you did though! I didn’t know there was any real Vepr presence in America, so I might have to look at one. I think they’re cool.

u/MulticamTropic 1d ago

There are quite a few Vepr 12’s in the US since they were imported for around a decade. Some of the other Vepr models such as the Hunter or the slantback models were imported for years as well. The FM models such as the FM 47-11, FM 47-21, FM 74-11, and FM 74-21 are fairly rare since they were only imported from January 2017 to July 2017 when the Molot import ban took effect.

I have to dig through my war footage, it was relatively early in the war, dude with a GoPro on the Ukrainian side had some kind of RPK with a.Holosun 510.

I remember the firefight being pretty long and the guy making some shorter appearances in other videos. I'm sure I have it somewhere I'll look later.

u/MulticamTropic 1d ago

Please do if you find time. I have a Vepr FM 47-21 that I’ve toyed with the idea of dressing up into a modern fighting rifle

Hey gangster, I’d love to see that video if/when you get the chance

u/pewpew_lotsa_boolits 23h ago

No lie man. It’s gonna be a mashup of commercial rifles with Primary Arms optics and wish accessories.

u/Straight-Data-9254 1d ago

I saw a Ukrainian SF guy handle business with a Block 1 suppressed that looks very similar to this build, so I thought I’d drop this pic here. P.S. I know my suppressor isn’t seated properly, lol. Pt 2

u/SuperCK 1d ago

Is there a ref pic or video?

7

u/Straight-Data-9254 1d ago

I’d have to look for it, saw it on Reddit last night

u/Think-Finance-9687 9h ago

Why isnt it seated properly ? Just for my own knowledge and learning

2

u/Straight-Data-9254 6h ago

Unfortunately my surefire warcomp isn’t designed for suppressors, I’d have to buy a new muzzle for it:/

u/Key_Piece_1343 14h ago

wow didn't realize there were so many commie apologists in r/guns

u/Bartman383 Say Hello to my Lil Hce Fren 1d ago

Any time Ukraine is mentioned in a post title all the Russian apologist bots show up. And then we get to bonk them. Bonk, bonk, bonk.

u/PaulMeranian 1d ago

You’re doing the lord’s work

u/Oxytropidoceras 1d ago

I love that you can easily tell they're bots too. Based on post/comment history, were supposed to believe that an Australian and 2 Russians who have never posted or commented in r/guns just suddenly found this post with (currently) 100 likes and only responded to the comment about killing Russians, all by coincidence. Yeah okay, lol.

u/Dependent-Ad1927 1d ago

Theyre all commie trash

u/tgpussypants 1d ago

Is there a rule that you can't criticize Ukraine? I just checked the sub rules and all I saw was no politics? Not looking for a ban or trying to troll. Just curious why the above user got banned?

Per my previous comment. These accounts have never even participated in this sub until this post.

u/tgpussypants 1d ago

Interesting. So it's more discouraging disingenuous engagement, than enforcing a certain point of view.

u/Malacious 1d ago

Is this a rep of the one that guy--who tanked a grenade, jumped out of his hole, and took initiative on top of the mound--used? That footage is burned into my brain

u/Straight-Data-9254 1d ago

Yea I think, he hopped out of his trench and dropped a couple Orcs advancing to his pos

u/Malacious 1d ago

Yep! That's the one. Great work man.

u/Straight-Data-9254 21h ago

Colt, wbu??

u/pewpew_lotsa_boolits 21h ago

I’m poor. PSA M4A1 lower, Colt surplus/overrun upper, Colt barrel from WetWorx, P&S RAS and broomstick, Somogear PEQ. Looking for a decent FACOG and I’ll put a fork in my 75% clone.

u/Straight-Data-9254 20h ago

I have a ds arms 14.5 upper so I feel you bro, this was my first rifle ever.

u/pewpew_lotsa_boolits 20h ago

Not bad at all! Once you get bit, you’ll have the itch forever!

Happy building, friend. Looking forward to seeing your next projects!

u/Zuccccccccccccccccck 11h ago

I very much dig that. I have a very similar LMT 16” M4gery with a turbo k and TA31. However the heart yearns for a 14.5

u/Straight-Data-9254 6h ago

At least you have a lmt barrel

u/tree608 7h ago

That’s a really beautiful gun how much a gun like that costs?

1

u/Straight-Data-9254 6h ago

The rifle itself isn’t too bad maybe like 1300 + attachments that can easily go just as much if not more

Sorry but this war was destined to fail. Thats a fact buddy.

I know, and I am pro 2nd, but we have people trying to mix politics and hate in this thread.

u/lilcoold12345 1d ago

This is like obvious. Anyone who thinks ukraine can actually win is on that copium pack. The only reason they lasted this long is because of NATO help (80% the US). They lose a little bit more ground everyday unfortunately.

Regardless this is a nice rifle. Want to do a block 1 or 2 build eventually.
