Do you think we will ever get an RPK style variant? Im loving AKMS but I would prefer the look of an RPK (adding a bipod to a vepr 12 is cheap imo).

In Russia a RPK version of a Vepr is available complete with the "clubfoot" stock.
The one I'm interested in is a straight pull version of the SVU (bullpup Dragunov) rumoured for this time next year.

More than a vested interest in 7.62x54r!

SVU looks interesting, if the rpk ever hit our shores then I will be the first man to buy it.

Have you seen the Vepr-KM aka VPO-136?, they are made from genuine1960s AKMs for the civilian market.A straight pull one of these would be very nice.

I spoke to Oleg regarding the rpk and he said that he needs deposit for at least 10 (he tried to put feelers out in 2012 but no one was interested :( ).
