Vepr-12 fixed tube stock options?
After doing some googling i read that the tubular stock takes a totally different trunnion than other AK stocks, but have no clear answer on what would fit and work for what i want.
I would like to replace my fixed tubular stock with an AK 100 side folding stock.
Has anyone done this? what trunnion was used? where did you source the stock?

I drilled one off and installed others. Used a tang from a turk one or something? I prob wouldn’t do it again under these sanctions…

So what you’re lookin at is drill in off, welding holes, cutting side off, adding holes etc. not a real easy job. Doable; but ya gotta be handy

I just replaced the rear trunnion on mine. I ordered a new rear trunnion with the 3 degree slant cut from Dissident Arms (CSS had not had them in stock for over a year) and then just followed the CSS tutorial: drill out the two rear trunnion pins, remove pistol grip, remove the old trunnion, insert the new trunnion (mine needed some encouragement but nothing a few blows from a rubber mallet couldn’t fix) and then re-insert the grip. The whole thing is held rock solid by just the fit and the grip screw. Overall took less than 30 minutes. My new rear trunnion is threaded for an M4 buffer tube but you can order Pic rail ones too.

Dissident Arms has stock adapters for the fixed tube stocks. They do require fittings and drilling a hole in the receiver for secure attachment. It's a service we offer. If you're interested send an email to orders@dissidentarms.com
