The Antithesis of Chaos…

The antithesis of Chaos is generally held to be “Cosmos” — and in our case, Cosmos is the new Finite Element Analysis program that we are using to test the Fortis. Vltor Weapons Systems has brought on some new folks to help out with the Fortis Project, and the investment is paying off well!

As previously stated, we have made some internal changes, in order to make the Fortis more reliable, stronger and safer than the original pistol — currently there are a few computer models that are undergoing repeated testing in computer simulation. The Finite Element Analysis testing allows us to look at areas of potential concern… and we are proud to say is showing us that the changes we have made are indeed improvements.

We are working to make the final refinements to the designs, and we are quite confident that when we move to “hard steel” prototype testing, that real range time will validate the time and cost we have invested in the extensive computer modeling and simulations.

As always… we will keep you posted as things move along — thanks for reading and check back soon!

    I had a Bren Ten on order way back when (I was 16). They called me and said the pistol was ready but they would have to ship magazine at later date. I opted out. I have went on to be in the military (instructor and armorer), Federal Law enforcement and 30 years of shooting back ground and I still want one…maybe you guys can help. Looks like a sharp pistol. I check one out when I can.

    I wish you success in your project, and am looking forward to owning one of
    these pistols when they come out.

    Great news guys! I can’t wait to own a modern Bren Ten! Finally Crockett’s gun is out of retirement! I’ll take two please.

    This is some of the best news in the past 22 years. I can not wait to have one or two, what ever the price is. I hope we see another update soon!

    Since others before you have tried this and failed I want to be skeptical, but I can’t help looking forward to this and wish you the very best luck in this endeavor. I appreciate a company willing to create something just because it’s something worthy of being built.
    Keep us posted and I’ll set money aside monthly for a pair of them and a ton of magazines.

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS….Finally. I have had dreams about this happening. I cannot believe this is happening…a Bren TeN. Just outstanding Vltor. Hands down you guys rock M-4 SOPMOD’s products. But I cannot wait.
