a_man said:Thanks a lot guys. couldn't find it on century arms website. I was able to find it on classic arms website...they seem to have it only scoped...$649...is this a good gun for the money?? I am looking for something sniper-like that is really fun to shoot (the louder the better, too ) and reasonably accurate...I don’t shoot long distance or anything like that (not just yet)...your input is much appreciated.
a_man said:any more reasons other than ammo availability (which could be a big problem i guess) ?
crakowski said:Milsurps, did you make that stock so pretty yourself? If every romak looked like that, then I wouldn't have much to say about the quality department.
I had the opposite experience with availability. Nobody was selling Romaks in March. Believe me, I tried, otherwise I wouldn't have even spent enough time on the problem to have thought to make a fake one. Robinson still had .308 veprs direct, and they told me they'd put that slotted handguard on it for no charge if I bought the rifle from them.
Also forgot to mention that we'll be getting a flash hider for that vepr as soon as they're back in stock. That will really add to the look, usability, and barrel length. He's in PA so we don't have to worry about some lawyer moaning about whether a dragunov stock is thumbhole or pistol grip.
