Several years ago Vepr-12 Molot (VPO205) made by VYATSKIEPOLYANY MACHINE BULDING PLANT (Molot) was bought due to better quality then IZHMASH production. IMHO Vepr-12 VPO-205-00 is better then Saiga-12K-030 that I was wanted to buy.
The "Vepr-12 Molot" shotgun is made on the basis of the Kalashnikov light machine-gun (RPK), produced for the shells of 12/76 gauge and Saiga-12-030 made on the basis of the Kalashnikov AKM. "Vepr-12 Molot" (VPO-205, 430 mm barrel) is a multi-purpose semi-auto shotgun, from other versions of Vepr-12 it differs with an available detachable flame arrester installed on the barrel muzzle part and with a mechanism blocking the trigger and eliminating from the possibility of shooting, when the stock is folded up.
First I bought and installed Polygon Muzzle brake and Burris FastFireII to my Vepr-12. The muzzle brake was improve a little bit like it was made on Vsevolod Ilyns Polygon Muzzle brake.

Secondly I decided to remove Original (Molot) stock and bough & installed Folding Stock Adapter (compatible with MilspecAR15 stock) made by Molot . Then was installed DPMS 6-Position Carbine Buffer Tube, Magpul CTR Carbine Stock & Magpul Enhanced Rubber Buttpad. Bolt & Bolt carrier details, as well as, Trigger Group and Bolt Rails ware polished.

Then Original Trigger Group was replaced by RSA Adjustable AK Trigger System for Saiga 12/20 Gauge from Power Custom. After trigger adjustments were made, Safety was Adjusted For Proper Safety Engagement by Removing metal from the Safety.

Also Original (Molot) pistol grip was replaced by Hogue AK-47 / AK-74 Rubber Grip with Finger Grooves & Original (Vepr-12 Molot) Lower Hand-guard Rail System was replaced by Molot RPK Hand-guard without Picatinny M1913. Then Original (Molot) magazine release was replaced by RAM Saiga 12 Extended magazine release. In addition for Burris FastFireII was bought & installed Burris FastFireII Picatinny Protector.
E-Tac TwisterPuck (Standard) from GoGun USA Gas Piston was modified to fit Vepr-12.

Later I decided to paint my Vepr-12 by Duracoat. Original paint was removed (by 98% Alcohol & brass brush). The polished rails before painting was covered by Tamya masking tape. Shotgun was painted by Duracoat Flat Black for the base color first.

Then Shotgun was painted by Duracoat Ultra Flat Tactical Extreme Gray and some parts was painted by Duracoat Ultra Flat Tactical Black , 8-round magazine was painted EOTch FlatDark Earth, 4-round magazine was painted UltraFlat Tactical Black.

After drying for 4 weeks the Vepr-12 was assembled. The tactical colors was look super!

Later I revealed tactical colors look very super, but not practical due to ultra flat tactical surface could be easily scratch by finger nail and be stained by oiled fingers. Accordantly to foregoing bug, I decided to lubricate all the tactical colors surfaces by Break-Free CLP oil to make the surface oil stainless.
At present I don't use E-tac Twister puck - because, IMHO, it the useless stuff! I bought it as I believed to GoGun USA advertise that their E-Tac Twister puck cleans gas tube much better then the Original puck. I had to modified it to fit Vepr-12 due to Saiga have a little different bolt carrier and puck without hole inside.
When all was done, I tested GoGun twister puck - and found that it is worth then standard Molot puck. I sent it to Molot plant for test and Molot guys said that this twister puck doesn't have any advantages to standard - only disadvantages. Now I have useless custom E-Tac Twister puck from GoGun USA for Vepr-12.
I ordered short Sport Molot puck + short recoil spring that make stabale work with 28 g. cartridges.
In addition I changed my Guns Tuning Laboratories Muzzle Brake PSH-2 to Muzzle Brake GK-01 designed by IPSC shooter Mr.Vselolod Ilyn and made by VYATSKIEPOLYANY MACHINE BULDING PLANT(Molot). Plus I installed Magpul Magazine Assist, CrossTac Ambi Sling Connector (ASC) for AR-15 collapsible stock & Modified left Safety (without selector).
