The sides and bottom of the aluminum unit feature the KeyMod system, co-developed by Noveske and VLTOR, allowing you to more easily install rails or accessories anywhere along the handguard. This handguard provides 9.5 inches of Picatinny rail on top between the front sight and the dust cover. The gas block is the modern type with a 90-degree angle, but it is hard to see because of the custom KeyMod handguard. The four-prong brake itself is made by Krebs and very effectively reduces muzzle flash. Krebs first cuts the barrel down to 14 inches, then adds a permanently attached muzzle brake to bring the legal barrel length to 16 inches. The rear of the receiver has an angled cut that requires the use of an adapter to install different stocks.
This makes the receiver much stronger with less flex when fired. It uses a heavy duty front trunnion, which is where the barrel connects to the receiver and the bolt locks. Notably, the VEPR uses a standard stamped receiver that has been beefed up for heavy use and is 50 percent thicker on each side. What sets them apart is that the traditional gun made by Molot was the RPK squad automatic weapon.
