Vader One stocks are well on-track and will start to ship early this next week. Excited to see how people get on with them. It's been extremely hard work but believe it's in a really good place now, as always thanks for the patience! 👍
Oh sh$t...hahaha oh wow you are in for such a surprise. I know if you follow this you love shooting, all aspects of it not just VR well...some things are just meant to be. This last tweak I made today on new prototype, let's just say it all suddenly...lined up. Good things coming

Gunstock Vader One, absolutely love it ❤️. Currently working with Pavlov, video to follow. Absolute beast mode, but feels imba against none-gunstock players atm. Can even use bolt - actions / pump-actions.
Pre-orders up later today.
Pre-Orders - I wanted to give a more thorough overview than Twitter allows of why we have been reluctant to accept them, and our proposed solution. So I made a blog post:
I hope after reading you will see this as a sensible solution for us all. - J
Hi quick update, first of last 2 CQB batches now complete & ship tomorrow. Second batch will be processed then and a batch of CQBs will be up Sunday at 21:00 UTC. A new competition will be live tomorrow and news of Elite 2.0 R2 progress will be announced next week 👍
So had a brainwave this morning and it now looks like the new Elite 2.0, besides now being integrated with the new prototype, will now have practically zero occlusion. This is something I didn't think was possible until 4am this morning 😊
The new Kobra Elite is coming along well. Decided to push back release to include the undersling thumbwheel slide lock. I'm not going to rush it out until I'm happy with it. Still a fair bit to do.
Everything looking positive for full launch of Wolverines this weekend followed by mag-lock variant the following weekend. Price lowering adjustment likely on UltraLite with refunds for existing orders, modules or full kits will be available to save postage costs 👍

@funktroniclabs
who made this fab game! Those devs included a weapon customisation option 🙏 (this game was way more fun than I had anticipated definitely worth a look)
Very excited now, can reveal
@Maraksot78
now in possession of prototype and will be doing a video reveal when he has had a chance to log some decent game time with it. It will then immediately be available on ETSY for made-to-order. CQB will be available tomorrow on ETSY.
Just a heads up, batches will be up more frequently now, it won't be as long wait between them as printing capacity has doubled and settings are nicely refined. Thanks for your patience as always 👍
OMG...new prototype just hit another breakthrough. Looking at a month or less for the reveal depending on one or two elements beyond my control. Oh WOW what an interesting development. Not much news lately knee deep in work in all areas.
Ultra lightweight bipod soon available bundled with CQB or separately. Only 43 grams or 1.5 Oz, light enough to fold and keep permanently attached. As comparison to how light this actually is, the previous lightweight one was over 350 grams..
Ok thanks for the feedback on none buyout eBay poll. We are looking into a secure method for preorders to ensure buyers are protected, we appreciate some of you have been waiting for a while and it is frustrating. Expect an announcement this week 👍
A batch of 20 CQB's going up in 24 hours 21:00 UTC, modified foregrip as per feedback, link will be posted here to eBay when they drop. Awaiting feedback on Elite 2.0s before next batch 👍
Mostly pushing CQB batches through, no big update, apart from prize draw tonight for free CQB (white & black one) and everything going as planned. Oh made-to-order will be available via ETSY sometime next week as requested 👍
Quick update, last batch of Elite 2.0s is coming along well. Ironically switching from mostly hand-made to printed which will ultimately speed up the build time, currently is delaying things as we wait for new printers to arrive. Expected tomorrow so should start to speed up then
3 new printers arrived today so that should translate into faster production towards the end of next week. Elites still being built up, thanks for the patience with this first run 👍
Pushing through ETSY orders all day, should start seeing orders ship early this week. No real updates apart from ongoing performance trials with updated Elite 2.0 (which just involves stomping new players in Pavlov public lobbies for hours late at night 😁)
Can't believe it's been 7 years without her my S&W15-22 😪 Please be gentle in the US, this is the largest semi-auto caliber we can own privately in UK. I'm not going to rest until we all have fully recoiling M4 style rifles in VR by the end of 2022 👍
Just picked up

it's a real nice fast paced, PvP shooter. If you use the Vader One just offset the vertical height by 5 - 8 to lower the weapons and although you need to tilt front controller to grab foregrip it lines up real nice after its gripped 👍
May the 4th be with you! Very excited to see the 'Scout' upgrade kit for Quest 2 stocks finally ready, will be on sale soon. Transforms the way you play and is a lot of fun to use 👍
The faux holographic sight along with smg front as well as DMR rear stock and front section. Making the platform modular really opens up possibilities. There will be a picatinny pump-action attachment beneath for the DMR version.
Hi quick update. The latest CQB R2 (2nd revision) is looking in a real good place. As we await feedback and revision on the initial Elite 2.0 batch we will push out more CQBs. Expect a new batch to be up tomorrow 21:00 UTC and another quite soon afterwards in a few days.
Just quick update to say we are still extremely committed to the mag-lock (Elite 2.0 upgrade) and should be available within 1-2 weeks along with other modules. If you compare minimalist occlusion now compared to previous Elite 2.0 it reduces occlusion to nearly zero in-game.
Going to be a big couple of weeks for existing orders, all new packaging has arrived and will be pushing through a large part of outstanding orders. It is more expensive but is far faster and superior. Thanks for the patience of anyone waiting.
As promised spent some time developing the pump-action module for the mag-lock, although this picatinny attachment fits fine on DMR as pictured. This isn't the final version but looking very promising, it's a far more elegant design with slide lock rather than thumbwheel
Parcels everywhere! Expect pricing of Wolverine to alter regarding UltraLite and postage costs. Will ship some early to evaluate costings. If prices drop customers can expect refunds of difference etc As this is a new line it will take a while to find right balance 👍
Took some pics to explain why some are saying the controls feel 'off' in
@firstcontactent
#Firewallultra
, not just gunstocks, free-handers too. It's imo to do with aggressive offset angles and un-natural heights which are not comfortable to hold at.
Couple more shots of new pump-action module. Hope to have this up for purchase next week or so! Module price will be around £35 something like that as ballpark figure. There will be some out in the wild very soon as external opinions are needed.
Update on Elite 2.0 so far based on feedback: Slight modification required to top bar to improve stability, relaxing of angular offset by 5 degrees on rear controller as currently a bit too aggressive, front slider stop strengthened, front grip lowered.
Oh just a quick reminder, always detatch the controller pushing towards magazine well, it's purposely seated tight to rear rails so you can pull it harder into your shoulder without disconnecting it - don't pull too hard or it could crack the ring.
Very happy with pump-action module now, will prepare advert and expect this to go up within days. It will be available as an add-on module for existing DMRs and also available as a bundle for new orders 👍

Any weapon fanatics out there, this is a wet dream. How can anything be this well implemented! I have no words just goosebumps and only seen gunrange
Thank you so much for your patience!! So excited about new stocks about to launch. There really will be something for every playstyle now. Those who waited for so long for the Elite 2.0 updates, I think you will be very happy, I hope so! The plan is to release the base prototype
Update all 4th Feb orders will ship tomorrow and the last batch will follow this week. Made-to-order will then begin via ETSY towards end of the week likely the weekend. Thanks for your patience, things looking real good for the near future 👍
Announcement on Quest 3 support. We are working on a new design for this headset aswell as a solution to retro-fit Q3 controllers to existing Quest 2 stocks. We need to thoroughly performance test the new controller solutions before releasing anything for sale.
Firewall Ultra front mod will raise front grip which brings the stock in-line. They might patch it in future but who knows how long that will take. It will have 2 settings, the lower setting will also work in Pavlov. Tested last night in Firewall and it was very comfortable
Congrats to

@Leghan2k
who is the lucky winner. I will be contacting him tonight with a week to reply to accept then we will re-draw 👍
You have to love it when you say you are launching on Etsy and a day later there is article on BBC consumer affairs program Watchdog about the platform...
Little update for anyone using Quest Pro controllers, the Maglock variant is soon available. Been testing it and performs outstanding. A DMR conversion will be available as well as a fixed rear grip or free grab rear grip for DMR too.
VR Panda face 😄 I shouldn't 'playtest' I always end up on there for hours. Good news is big cups work fab with Kiwi grips now, bad news is I switched from CQB to mag-lock and gave myself a migraine sweating Pavlov for hours 😂
I have started the production of latest Elite 2.0 batch and after a few more tweaks to the files its starting to look tight af 💪 Each new line is a learning curve but early signs show this could be a fast stock to produce.
Spent nearly 2 hours on Pavlov using updated Elite 2.0 last night, very comfortable, super-accurate with no controller jitter so far, very impressed with it. I know a few of you are keeping an eye on this update. After
@Maraksot78
drops reveal pics will follow 👍
Due to ongoing updates to the Elite 2.0 we are offering a 50% discount on the next stock bought by anyone who purchased an original 2.0 model. This will not apply to post & packaging. This is based on numerous upcoming changes to the platform unforeseen at the time of purchase.
Olive decal for DMR including 2 side rail mod. Pistol has foregrip so very easy to switch from climbing walls in Population One to 2-handed smg/rifles, surprisingly fits most weapons in Pavlov / Onward too. Angle is way more realistic than most Q2 pistols out there.
Please remember to feedback on Elite 2.0, I never get everything right and like CQB with foregrip, there is always areas to improve. So far I have already received feedback on an improvement to the design that I will implement for future batches 👍
Just a heads up all outstanding orders will ship this week and the made-to-orders will open up at end lf the week. Been quote a busy few weeks so apologies for the delays 👍
Q3 controllers fit current pistol grip system on Maglock Pro, will test performance later aswell as on CQB v2 as these also fit. Our new system to retro-fit to existing Q2 stocks will also be tested and unveiled later after performance tests 👍

As we saw thanks to Jy, Onward, one of the most incredible VR shooters is implementing physical gunstock calibration, so players can adjust the settings in-game. I highly recommend this awesome mil sim style experience if anyone has not tried it yet 👍
*Drum Roll* and the winner is.....Wayne Campbell
@WayneCa27796822
. Even includes my typo! So I will Dm him now.
Thanks for entering, better luck next time...
Mag-lock is coming along fab, just a small preview. Will start arranging details for a soft launch this weekend, before a full etsy launch later. It's in a really good place now, just want to nail it. Details to follow 👍
Wolverine SMG & DMR loadouts now available in shop, tomorrow will publish on website a guide to the Wolverine modular concept in case anyone has unanswered questions
Some project W news...so it's looking possible for reveal next weekend. The prototype is a modular platform and initially just the base model will be available for purchase with modules rolling out over the following weeks. You would need the initial base to build off, however
As we saw thanks to Jy,

Quick update on, 20 x CQBs are up this weekend with a revision to foregrip as per feedback from first batch. The Elite 2.0s should start to arrive and be tested this next week so awaiting feedback from the initial batch of 2.0s 👍
With pump-action module on sale this weekend it will be all-in development for the long-awaited Elite 2.0's upgraded mag-lock variant. This should be a flagship development incorporating a lot of the Wolverine innovations as well as some unique features.
First impressions
@playCFSS
#CFSS
what a masterpiece right out of the box. Apologies a bit gushy as shooting fan this is just outstanding well done!
#PSVR2
with Vader One stock. Couldn't see any gunstock calibration in options but lines up nicely already 👍
New prototype, I'm going to just throw this out there so there is no confusion. It's not a substitute for the CQB, it couldn't compete with that versatility, in its rawest form its not even in direct competition with the Elite, its a separate entity entirely as you will soon see
Apologies accidentally removed last tweet! Just to repeat, the foregrip on CQBs will be modified to include a 30-40 degree offset like the Elite 2.0s. This gives a more predictable thumbstick response in-game.
@GAMERTAGVR
Your legit criticism helped push our PSVR2 Vader One gunstock into a better version so don't ever stop being honest it's always appreciated by anyone genuine 👍
Wow feels like VR finally made it with PSVR2 joining the ranks! Cheers everyone it's been a rough start but feel it's finally pushing into main stream 🍷
Preview of new magwell replacement module for pump-action module. This will be bundled with module so will need to be color matched. The one shown will have slight modification but you get the idea, makes a wicked shorter rifle now.
Still not claimed. If no answer from
@WayneCa27796822
by Sunday 13 19.00 I will redraw, that will have given a week to claim. Hope this seems fair - J.
Production of new Vader One stocks well underway. Whilst awaiting for final parts to arrive we made a final upgrade to front section after feedback from
@Maraksot78
, we had these already printed but scrapped them due to the upgrade being significant for performance 👍
