There is two variations at http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/storeproduct981.aspx
That take "most Hi cap mags" the Md2 and the Red Jacket conversion.

Except for the suppressor my friend got from them that ended up being a nightmare and he ended up getting a refund from them.

VEPRs are great guns. Hands-down the most accurate AK I have.

They are very well made, and come from the Molot factory in Russia who make the RPK (light machine gun) version of the AKM. As such, they have a 50% thicker receiver, a heavier front trunnion, barrel, and a few other differences. These are noticeably front-heavy compared to an AKM, their only downside is weight but they make up for it in accuracy.

All Red Jacket does to these is add furniture and a bullet guide, so they are compatible with AK mags.

Nice a refund, good to hear that when they make mistakes they come through with good customer service..

Vepr AK's as Rob said are among the best.
