The company gained popularity in the market with the release of the original VLTOR Modstock. In 2004, VLTOR was bought out by a precision sheetmetal and CNC machining company called Abrams Airborne Manufacturing, Inc. Founded in 1965 in Tucson, Arizona, AAMI provided a highly capable manufacturing facility that led to the rapid expansion of the VLTOR product line. In the past decade, VLTOR released a series of innovative products to the weapons market. Most notably, the company has produced items such as: the CASV handguard, the Enhanced Modstock (EMOD), the VIS Polylithic Upper, and the A5 system. VLTOR is committed to continually growing the product line in order to provide the end users with the most robust, well performing weapons in the market.

We are weeks deep into a big moving process at the factory. Staying where we are, but entirely shuffling all of the equipment to make more space for expansion. Appreciate your patience with us as we wrap it up. While moving the contents of one of the rear buildings we found some boxes of OG Modstocks. Just put them up in the “Hangar Finds” section of the site for an absolute song. A lot of you guys have been looking for these for your AFSOC clones and other things. We only have foliage green units, but the universe invented Krylon for a reason. We have both standard and clubfoot versions up.

For those that don’t know, the Modstock was one of the things that started VLTOR in the early 2000s. It was our main buttstock offering until we dropped the Emod and the Imod (the Imod basically being a modified version of the Modstock with an added buttpad, changed toe angle, and other features). Super cool stock. Strong and lightweight. A real OG that’s been in use around the world for two decades.

Our "CMRD" extended AKM handguard is being archived as we focus on other projects. There won't be another run of these anytime soon, possibly never again. Only a handful from the last run remain. Wanted to give everyone a heads up.

We now offer complete Imod stock kits with the VLTOR A5 buffer system. The kit comes with the Imod stock (standard or clubfoot), RE-A5SR buffer tube, A5H2 buffer, A5 action spring, endplate, and castle nut. These kits start with part number “AIBK”, but the ending suffix will change depending on the specific components included.

Despite the severe tungsten shortage, we’ve been cranking out more VLTOR A5 buffers than ever. Navigating the logistics for this has been quite tricky. Doing our best to keep you guys supplied. Huge run just went out to MidwayUSA, OpticsPlanet, Revival Defense, Primary Arms Online, Brownells, Inc., RSR Group, DirtyBird Industries, and more.

Packed up more of our “FRC” partial ARCA handguards, in 12” and 15” lengths. These side and bottom views help showcase the placement of the ARCA and stop features, as well as the omitted slots on the bottom 45s for increased rigidity. Awesome handguards. Black hardcoat ano on this run.

Here's an example of a build utilizing the VLTOR FRC-12 handguard from our last post. A few of you messaged wanting to see it in the context of a complete SBR.

More FRC handguards in 12” and 15” lengths just got wrapped up. These have an integrated ARCA segment in rear, and handstop feature up front. Extremely handy.

We make many of our handguards both with and without an integral handstop feature up front. Several of us here at the shop have developed a preference for the handstop versions, especially on the shorter handguard lengths. This is our 10” with handstop (actual OAL around 10 3/4”) shown with an 11.5” barrel.
