Yup, it’s a new office week here at AAHQ after the Bank Holiday weekend and we just had some awesome news from our mates over at VORSK who let us know that the three new “shorty” models should be inbound soon and are now on pre-order, so that’s the VMP-2S, SD, and 2C that we saw at IWA only a few short months ago!
The original VMP-2 (VORSK MODULAR PLATFORM) has always been just the fundamental building block for an entire program, and the very latest models are now inbound soon! Even though the VMP-1 has provided us with a cracking little SMG/MP it’s a fact that many out there do prefer a more “traditional” setup, even with their “shorties”, and at this IWA VORSK unveiled the THREE models that are certain to absolutely delight players everywhere… given that the new models also have complete magazine compatibility with the existing variants, this is a complete WIN for anyone that has, or wishes to, buy into the entire family!
As we said in our overview of these in ISSUE 173, the VMP-2S benefits from a 7” M-LOK rail, a 20mm picatinny stock mount, and VMP folding stock, and will be set at around 330fps/1 Joule with a Safe, Semi-only, and Full-auto trigger group. The VMP-2SD will have a 7” M-LOK squared rail, an integrally suppressed outer barrel, a 20mm picatinny stock mount with a NEW slimline metal stock, and a NEW stubby pistol grip; this again will be set to 330 fps/1 Joule with the same Safe, Semi-only, and Full-auto trigger group.
The VMP-2C is a super-shorty (pictured, think MP5K on acid!) with a 3” perforated, round handguard, a 20mm picatinny stock mount, the NEW stubby pistol grip, and a NEW enlarged charging handle… it just looks “businesslike”, and with one of the new slimline metal stocks added (these will be available as an accessory at a later date, as will many of the new parts!) we can see this being a fabulous CQB tool, or a backup to the 2D DMR for fights between MED and pistol-range.
Once again it will be set to around 330 fps/1 Joule with a Safe, Semi-only, and Full-auto trigger group… BUT… remember that the trigger groups themselves are modular so in our mind you could easily swap out the as-stock group and replace it with a dedicated Safe, Semi-only one to make it 100%-plus compliant with most CQB sites anywhere in the world!
As Stewbacca is wont to say “exciting times, fellow shooters”, and we’ll be dropping our range testing results on ALL THREE of the new VORSK VMP-2 variants as soon as we’ve completed our time on the woods range… watch this space as always for more details when these cracking little beasties arrive!
