Built by Molot-Oruzhie Ltd. in Vyatskie Polyany, Russia, this VEPR uses an RPK-pattern reinforced 1.5 mm-class stamped receiver with riveted construction. The receiver and external metal carry a matte black finish, and the rifle bears clear import markings from TGI Knox, TN.
The 16.5 inch barrel is hammer-forged and chrome-lined, with a chrome-lined chamber and chrome-lined gas components. A threaded muzzle with a detent-retained multi-port device is installed, providing a secure, repeatable interface at the muzzle.
Furniture includes a steel side-folding stock with a ribbed metal buttplate and a 13.5 inch length of pull, plus a black polymer pistol grip. Controls are AK-pattern with a manual safety/selector lever, and the action is a semi-automatic, long-stroke gas piston system with a rotating bolt.
An aluminum quad-rail handguard provides rail interface for accessories, and this rifle arrives with a Picatinny rail-mounted bipod already installed. Sighting is via iron sights with an AK-pattern hooded front sight post.
Chambered in .308 Win, the rifle feeds from VEPR-marked polymer box magazines and has a 10+1 capacity. Two magazines are included: one 10-round and one 5-round.
