Forged Vltor VIS?

[sniperfrog]

I've heard the new Vltor VIS will be forged like the MUR. Will this be a one piece forging or will it still be "welded" together (or whatever that process is called that joins the forend and upper).

(or whatever that process is called that joins the forend and upper).

i think its called "salt dip brazing"...at least for the old VIS. don't know anything about a new one.

The first VISs were salt brazed; the later ones were welded. Both mine are welded, but they are billets, butI don't know how Vltor will fabricate the new forged VISs.

Great piece of kit, though!
