Is the VEPR (ak-47) legal woods gun?

[Greenman]

I as most of us have done , was looking at the Robarm xcr and started scouting around the site , and the VEPR series of rifles , any ideas if they are considered non restricted or what?

Anyone out there own one?

Based on the pics alone, my guess would be no as it looks to be an ak variant which is a big no no.

Vepr's are "AK47 derivatives"....So, no dice.

Yes Vepr's are prohib unfortunately. Armrus was bringing a shipment of Super Vpers that our stupid and dumb gunlaws torpedoed so successfully

I can't understand why a dealer would import a whole shipment before having just one approved. Also, for most dealers importing is not an issue, rather selling them to civies. Why not just sell them in the US if they can't be sold in Canada?

It's a shame I like the look and thought they might fall under a different classification due to different manufacure materials ..etc etc .... ahh well back to waiting for the XCR I guess

Too bad. Inexperience in the business I guess. He could have exported them and saved himself some money.

Dont worry Valeri as I understand it dumped all the saiga's and veprs where they where legal.
