V7 Weapon Systems

[Cincinnatus]

This new company looks interesting. Joel, (worked at Noveske for years and ran the N6 program aswell as day-to-day operations) is the proprietor. I think it is also based in Grant's Pass.

$140 for a mil-spec buffer tube? I like the bolt with a lifetime warranty, but AR parts companies tend to come and go.

Joel is a really good guy. I dealt with him a few times with minor issues and concerns and he always went above and beyond to help me out.

I would love to know if the bolts he offers are HPT/MPI on his site. I'll shoot him an email when I get a chance and relay that info back here.

I inhaled a little coffee when I scrolled past that one. They definitely need to go back and include their justification.

I'm sort of surprised to see anyone using any variation of "Vulcan" in their AR manufacturing name. I assume and hope they're unrelated?

"The Guns That Win WWIII."

That slogan is straight up fire! The AR industry just got it's dick kicked in.

Is that buffer tube steel rather aluminum? Dealt with Joel a couple of times and was he was cool. He sold me a Noveske MUR over a year ago before they were available for purchase. Best of luck to Joel and God bless.

I don't understand why this was developed.



It seems to me that offset irons make this mount obsolete. They're lighter, allow for proper cheekweld and don't require a riser to use.

The buffer tubes appear to be constructed from 4140 CMV rather than 7075-T6 aluminum, and melonite treated instead of hard anodized. I still don't see how that justifies a price tag nearly 3x higher than the Vltor A5... Is there a ravaging need for steel buffer tubes that I'm not aware off?

Maybe if you regularly use your rifle's buttstock to knock down doors but otherwise search me.

I'd be interested to know the reason/application... it's going to be three times the weight, and I can't say I've ever seen or even heard about a receiver extension breaking in the field.
