ВПО-136: photo, reviews of owners, characteristics, review. The difference of VPO-133 from VPO-136

The civil long-barrel hunting rifled carbine VPO-136 is now very popular with modern hunters and sports shooting enthusiasts. At the same time, more and more people are interested in the peculiarities of this weapon.

What it is?

VPO-136 is a civilian weapon that was produced from a combat machine. An important feature of this carbine is that it has the opportunity to use the original army stores, and in addition, it is also possible to mount specialized muzzle nozzles. Many experts recommend the use in VPO-136 a long machine gun flame arrester or all kinds of nozzles intended for idle shooting. In addition, there is also a presence of curing, which eliminates the weakening of the trunk and self-destruct after 100-200 rounds, while it is not even theoretically capable of cutting the shell of the bullet.

A major drawback of this weapon is the presence of a welded propeller screw. On some carbines the tree is far from in the best condition, which can provoke the emergence of various problems.

The VPO-136 is produced at the Molot enterprise in accordance with the program for the disposal of surpluses of various army weapons. As the basis for this weapon was taken standard AK-47, as well as AKM.

What are its differences from AK?

First of all it is worth noting the fact that the muzzle is made at approximately 1 cm depth. About a few inches on the outer front end, a slight trace from the core remains on the outer front end, but about the VPO-136, the owner's testimonies indicate that in practice this coring does not render No impact on the operation of weapons, and even after 100-200 shots, the "splash" of metal in the area of the coring is gradually smoothed out. Of course, at this point the chrome coating is damaged, which requires more thorough cleaning.

In the larva of the bolt (in the exit area of the drummer) a small hole was drilled, which leaves a trace of the cartridge case on the capsule. It should be noted that the sleeve itself retains its integrity. A screw was welded, as well as a specialized fastening butt. This is done in order to exclude the possibility of shortening this carabiner to a length of less than 80 cm. For this reason, this stock can be legally changed only if the work is done in a licensed workshop.

Changes and additions

It was decided to replace the USM, that is, remote parts of the automatic USM, instead of which they installed the USM, which is typical for the "Vepr" carbines. Of the automatic parts, it was decided to leave only the fuse-translator.

On the shutter frame, on the right guide, there is a tide slit, which is intended for interaction with the automatic descent pen on the combat machine. The place of the cut was not processed in any way, and it is advisable to make a podvoronku at least some kind of cold rag to avoid the possibility of rust. About VPO-136, the owners' reviews indicate that the bolt frame does not represent the main part of the weapon, so that the owner has the opportunity to change it completely independently.

In the hole of the third axis there is a unique detail riveted from the right side of the trunk box. Among other things, all sorts of brand-new stamps are stamped, and on most of the vehicles they are present on the left and right walls of the trunk box, while on a certain part of the weapon are located on the trunk under the forearm. Stamps are applied with the help of laser technology, and at the same time can simply be blackened to low visibility by using specialized means of cold blasting.

For other characteristics, the weapon VPO-136 fully corresponds to the standard parameters of the combat machine.

What are its advantages?

First and foremost, it should be noted that in this carbine it is provided for the use of army stores in the event that they set the capacity limiters. Thus, for example, you can easily attach a PKK store to these weapons without any problems.

What do I need to know?

It should be noted that, according to the current legislation, such weapons as VPO-133 or VPO-136 must necessarily have the maximum capacity of the store - 10 cartridges, and not the amount that is provided in the store initially. Thus, if the owner of the carbine is caught with a fastened full army store, then there will be every reason to draw up a protocol and further punish the owner of this weapon.

Muzzle Nozzle

A non-welded muzzle nozzle is a thread protection nut or a specialized compensator. Due to this, it is absolutely legal to unite such a carbine with a variety of DTCs and flame arresters. But do not forget that the use of any devices that provide a reduction in the sound of a shot, is strictly prohibited. If you have a certain mock-up mock-up that does not prevent the bullet from passing, but does not muffle the sound of the shot, you can use it for decorative purposes only.

Particular attention is paid to the fact that, despite the fact that there is a length of HPE-136 with a muzzle nozzle, the gun has a complete bayonet-knife attachment, and in the current legislation there are no prohibitions that could limit the possibility of using it on this weapon . Thus it is necessary to say that, for example, souvenir versions of knives NS-AK are present in free distribution, and nothing forbids them to use on this carbine.

Additional features

In ВПО-136, the characteristics provide for the completion of specialized 30-seat "landing" or steel shops, which have a wire П-shaped stopper in their construction. Also, absolutely all original stamps were retained, while the number of the carbine is the number of the machine that was used as a "donor".

In VPO-136 (photo above) there is completely no pin in the trunk, and there is no weakening through-hole drilling, that is, nothing will scratch the bullet. Also there is no hole in the chamber, and chrome has remained completely untouched, so after the shot, the cartridge will remain perfectly intact.

disadvantages

There are no standard ramrods, as a result of which the carbines are equipped with long, but thin ramrods from the standard "Boar". They do not fit as well in the original place, and standard standard accessories can not be screwed onto this ramrod.

Also here there are no standard cases for cleaning, as a result of which the carbines are supplemented with semi-modern containers of modern type. On standard AK / AKM accessories can not be screwed from this pencil case.

Among other things, there are no straps, but in fact it is not such a serious drawback, because they can always be purchased with hands.

Also worth noting is the fact that in recent versions, the bundle provides for the presence of a "home" pencil case and a ramrod, and an additional ramrod from the "Boar" is also included in the kit.

Possible disadvantages

There are certain defects on the rifling. In principle, these defects may represent certain sores of rust on the rifling, which are self-eliminated during shooting, but in these places chrome suffers, which is quite an important point. Shooting continues the carbine is quite normal, but while doing it, you need to apply a lot of effort. In addition, there are small surface foci of rust on the outer surfaces, which does not affect the parameters, but requires quick elimination.

There are devices in which there is a replaced tree, that is, a number is set that differs from the original number of this carbine. In some cases, there are also devices with a smaller or larger shot. Wear is not available, since the remaining resource is sufficient for the further operation of such weapons, but in doing so, this is slightly reflected and appreciable for experienced professionals. Although at the same time often about VPO-136 reviews say that there are such devices that are converted almost to the ideal state or with a minimal shot.

Differences from VPO-133

Many do not know what is the difference between HPE-133 and VPO-136, is it worth changing one carabiner to another, but in fact there are a lot of differences, and some are for the better.

First of all, many people note the absolutely untouched "cracker" in front of the chamber, as well as the lack of replacement of the store latch. Due to this, standard military stores can be used in VPO-136 without the need for any improvement (of course, in addition to installing an additional limiter). Also, many people note the presence of a non-welded muzzle nozzle and a "plug" of the third axis.

Easy kernenie instead of pin in the role of crimble in the trunk allows you to achieve greater durability of such weapons. It should be noted that due to the lack of a pin and, consequently, through drilling in the trunk there is no weakening in it, and the bullet will not scratch anything during the shot. Among other things, there is no hole in the chamber, and was not touched by chrome here.

What to consider when choosing?

If you select VPO-136, the overview should begin with the appearance of this machine. You can even not pay attention to such elements as the state of the tree on the gas pipe or fore-end, since, if necessary, it can be easily replaced, because the cost of the kit is 300 rubles. Also, do not think about using a whistle or a nut, because this too simply changes and has about the same value. It is best to choose a machine that is in good technical condition, and only then to replace it with a nut and fore-end rather than choose a device at once with the ideal state of the whistle and fore-end, but then discover that the gas piston has burned out or there are some Serious damage to the trunk.

Advice of specialists

Do not forget that on wooden parts are often all kinds of scratches and nicks that do not overwrite in the process of operation, and this does not indicate a solid attack of the machine, but is the result of incorrect storage in the warehouse. If there are certain abrasions on the tree, this already indicates that the machine was often used and often even able to fire. Among other things, you can be alerted by the presence of wooden parts on the lacquer coating, as they indicate the reclamation of the tree, that is, it was badly rubbed. Be sure to pay attention to the numbers, since if the tree is re-covered, it is mandatory to conduct an extremely close inspection of the device.

If you have the opportunity, it is recommended to remove the forearm from the machine, then look in front of the trunk in the receiver. If there is a lot of dirt and rust there, then this indicates that during its service life the machine was often operated in various conditions.
