I know they are supposed to show something new with Veprs. Any chance that anyone over there has seen anything? Or has any pictures?

He is unveiling the new Krebs VEPR Keymod rail system. Uses standard Keymod parts.

Got to see this last month at his shop. It's nicely done and typical Krebs quality.

I see, I heard something about this. But I also heard they were bringing back the KTR's with veprs. They said they were going to introduce them at SHOT, I was wondering if anyone has seen anything yet.

Do you have pictures of the rail you mention? I'm curious about the the weight of it, I've been looking at buying one or two of the new veprs they are supposed to offer, I'm just curios how heavy they will be. I know veprs are always a bit heavier than standard AK's, I'm just wondering how much extra weight the rail will add on to the gun

I don't have any pics as he didn't want them floating around prior to SHOT.

The Krebs Keymod rail is extremely lightweight and thin, yet because of the shape and the way it attaches it's extremely solid and strong. Like the Noveske NSR it doesn't feel flimsy at all. Honestly the nicest VEPR rail on the market by a longshot.

I will ask him about the KTR VEPR tonight. He didn't mention it to me last month but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

That sounds really good, if you could get pictures that would be amazing, of course don't do anything marc doesn't want you to do.

Any way to get a weight comparison between the new Krebs Vepr rail and the Tws railed hand guard?

Thanks!

It's a "new" KTR-03 so to speak.
As the original was on a VEPR so is the new one. It's been updated and changed a little, but it's one sweet machine!

We have a few things at the Krebs booth, I can snap some crappy cell pics if you would like.



PS - the new Krebs rail is flat out awesome. There is no comparison with it and the TWS.

Please take pictures, even if crappy, do you have any idea when they will start selling them? The KTR 03's

Ill ask Marc tomorrow.

The new rifle is called KV-13 and will begin production when SHOT is over. Marc's new rail system will initially launch for the VEPR rifles and eventually move to Saiga/AKM etc. price points of each are still TBD but the rail should be around $250 - no idea about the KV-13.

I saw the new rail. It was solid, thin and light, as jchops reported. He said he's working on a general AK rail of the same style. Kinda looking forward to that.

Thanks a lot. That looks a lot better than I was expecting, I really can't wait for these KV13's

By the way, does anyone know of any vendors that will be carrying them?

The speed load has the only Saiga cut KV-U.F.M. made, but models to fit "any" AK coming soon.

Thanks!

They look really nice. About the speed load rifle, does this mean they are going to be bringing back the saiga based conversions too? I mean the basic 103k's

I'm sure if they could find any they would. Saigas havnt been around in at least 6 months.

That KV-UFM is the shit, I have a NIB VEPR K that has been sitting in a safe way too long. Gonna have to pick one of these up once they are released. Thanks for posting the pics and info.

Those keymod rails look tacky. It seems like because all the "AR" guys did it, they just followed suit.
