Installation notes:
Requires a simple modification to non-RPK handguards, or you can use it in conjunction with ACR2-SS or ACR2-SL (choose the stamped receiver version) without needing any alterations.
Compatibility notes:
This mount does not fit “Version Two” Vepr with “integrated sights”. However it does fit the “Vepr II” or any Vepr, in any caliber, having the standard RPK rear sight block. As with any other AK, lower handguards may be an issue.
UltiMAK M3-B: A rock-solid platform for your premium optics. This mount fits .308, 5.45 x 39, 7.62 x 39 and .223 caliber Vepr II and Vepr K rifles, FM-AK47-11, FM-AK47-21, etc. Does not fit Veprs having the so-called “integrated sights” (they have much longer piston tubes) With the rail positioned below the iron sights, this is the lowest optic mount available for this great rifle. You will be able to use your optic without a cheek riser and still use your regular hold. Allows co-witnessing of iron sights when used with tubular bodied 1x sights, such as Aimpoint.
Regarding handguard modification:
RPK handguards shouldn’t require any alterations, whether they are wood or synthetic. However, the extra-long handguards, such as the ones depicted just above and below, will need a simple modification with a Dremel or similar tool. You’ll be widening the inside of the forend to accommodate the mount’s clamping flange, as you see in the photo below. Alternatively, you can leave your handguard unaltered and use the UltiMAK ACR2-SS or ACR2-SL modular forend. The Vepr does not use the ACR2 barrel clamps, but instead uses the original Vepr forend screw and internal washer.
