Wolf Performance Arms Announces New Vepr Version 02s and Left-Handed Veprs
OutdoorHub 04.23.12
Wolf Performance Arms is excited to announce the new Vepr version 02 Rifles from the world famous Molot factory in Vyatskie Polyany, Russia. The Vepr version 02, a design exclusive to WPA, features an integrated front sight and a new low profile rear flip sight.
The Vepr version 02 rifles also feature Molot’s incredibly accurate cold hammer forged barrels that are threaded in the standard Russian 14mm x 1 left hand pattern. Each threaded barrel is capped, pinned and spot welded according to import requirements.
The rear flip sights are set at 100 meters or 300 meters and the front sight is integrated to the gas block. These features allow for faster target acquisition, reduced weight and results in the most balanced Vepr rifle ever produced to date.
In addition, Wolf Performance Arms is proud to offer, for the first time ever in the United States, left handed stock versions of the famous Vepr rifles. These factory original Turkish Walnut stocks, hand finished at the Molot factory in Vyatskie Polyany, Russia, offer the same outstanding comfort, quality and excellent finish as the standard right handed versions.
The left handed stock option is available on all model Vepr version 01 and 02 rifles (excluding the Vepr Hunter and Super models) and are the same suggested retail pricing as the standard right handed models.
The Vepr 02s and left handed stock versions of the Vepr rifles can now be special ordered from all of our Vepr distributors. Please see our website www.wolf-arms.com/distributors.html or contact your favorite distributor for more information.
