The best place to start is with the frames… we have spent a lot of time here – we will post some more pictures, but for now meet the first five tries.

Each of these frame castings are different… and they come from a few different casting houses. One of the Internet rumors that we see is that we are having the “same place that makes frames for Ruger” do our frame castings… they have done some, but the most current castings come from a different supplier.

What you are seeing represents a lot of work… each change to a casting can take a lot of time, but with each change we have made significant improvements to the heart of the pistol – and these changes do no come cheap, what you are looking at in that picture represents a serious investment in this project.

At each step along the way we had hoped we were there, a few times we thought for sure that we were… but there were things that we wanted to do better, so here we are: there are two other frames, the one we are currently using for testing and the newest one from the casting house – not going to say that newest one is the for sure real deal, but it is looking really good.

Next, we’ll round up some slides and show you what has been going on there… or maybe barrels, we have a lot of different barrels to show you…

Some Changes…

We would like to inform our customers, industry partners and friends that Sporting Products of West Palm Beach, FL is no longer handling the distribution or sales of the Vltor Bren Ten pistol – this news came to us recently from Sporting Products and we are unable to make any further comments regarding the dissolution. 

We do want to let everyone know that we are bringing the full management and oversight of the Vltor Bren Ten back under our roof; effective immediately the design, manufacture, marketing and distribution of the Bren Ten will be solely and squarely on Vltor Weapon Systems and Abrams Airborne Manufacturing. We hope that this repositioning will allow us to not only oversee this project from start to finish, but that it will also put us in direct contact with the retailers and customers. In the next few weeks, we will reestablish our presence on the Internet and open the forum to provide updated and candid information about the Bren Ten pistol. 

We do want to say that beyond our initial discussions to use Sporting Products as the sole distributor of the Bren Ten, we have not committed to any pre-orders or sales agreements, nor have we received any down payment for any of the Bren Ten pistols. If you believe that you have a purchase agreement of any type for the Bren Ten, you should contact Sporting Products directly with your concerns. 

Again, we hope to make the best of this event and get the Vltor Bren Ten to the shooting market as soon as possible.
