Did Anyone Here Get In On This VC Deal?

No, it was done on CNC equipment. I only have manual machines in my shop.

Good to see that you woke up OK! How was your nap?

We have this thing here that's called the "Ignore Button". I'm awake enough to use it.

Bummed I missed out on this. Do you think it was a one time thing or it might come up again? Seems like VQ would have no need for stock uppers, ever.

Volquartsen Custom has done this a few times before, so there's a good probability that they will do it again. They mostly use the Mark IV 22/45 grip frames for their Black Mamba pistols. Keep visiting the closeout section at VC to check and see what they have.

Good Luck,

They have "bolts" on eBay too.

Just received my bolt yesterday. Also got a new fiberoptic front sight, a picatinny rail for one of my other Rugers, a trigger group, and an extended mag release. Don't understand why it's less expensive AND free shipping from fleabay, than from the Volquartsen website, but it is what it is, so I'll save a few bucks. Happy, happy, happy!
