[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Vltor VIS

Anyone's thoughts or experiences?

For a monolithic upper, the MRP seems to be the bee's knees, but way too much money...
The VIS looks like a good option for $300+ less.

I have a vltor vis on my 7.5 Noveske upper and that thing is a work of art. You wouldn't be disappointed.

ETA: What's up fellow Northie!

I run a 12" VIS on my Noveske.

To tell you the truth, unless you like the look, there really is no advantage over a good upper / rail combo.

I just got the VIS because I wanted one........... and they're dead sexy

There's also Mega's monolithic upper.

I have a Noveske N4 14.5" with VIS.

Wouldn't trade it for two MRP's. The VIS is a great system, and Noveske makes a great barrel. Quick-change barrel feature is near useless to me, because I can't carry enough pills to burn out the N4 barrel anyways.

The barrel is easy enough to change on the VIS - not field expedient per se, but if you were in that kind of situation you'd already know you need the MRP. 99.99% of us are not.

YMMV.

I have a 10.5" SBR with a VIS2A and am happy with it. It's a very well built and thought out platform.

Very happy with my VIS II with BCM hammer forged barrel. I especially like the smaller diameter of the rails, not much bigger than the M4 hand guards.

CAN YOU TELL WE LIKE THEM? WE DO, WHEN WE CAN GET THEM!

GOOD SHOOTING,
