Ever Heard/Used of Vulcan armory?

I saw a great ad in soldier of fortune, and they seem to have a nice website.  They seem to have nice copys of the mp5, and gali rifles, as well as not to overally priced ar15s.

From all opinions and experience stated on the net, they were and will always be junk.

Naw man.....


Don't be listenen to dem haters, you want a Vulcan yo. Dey be da bomb. Dat's da shit dem Navy SEALS be usin [%]


Stay away my friend. If you are wanting to get an AR15 cheap then I would suggest ordering a striped lower, like a STAG ARMS lower, and ordering  prebuilt upper or finding a used  one in the Equipment Exchange. AR15's are easy to build if you have any mechanical ability and you can save a few bucks.


Go check out the build it yourself forum, then can help you plane an economical AR15 build.
AR15 Built it Yourself

As for the MP5 you are outta luck. No one makes a good production clone, I think Ohio Rapid Fire will do custom order MP5 clones. Ohio Rapid Fire does good work, so I have been told.

Todd at ORF does do a really good job.  His 1919's are the highest rated out there.  Swank customer service as well.
That's why Toad at Special Weapons a.k.a. Bobcat weapons don't likie him.

1) It's Toad or the twits at Hesse trying to get interest in their junk or
2) they don't know any better yet.

NOT trying to stick up for Vulcan...but I remember reading some posts here about their Carbon lowers & uppers performing well in "ultra-light weight" builds.

Who had the pics of the cracked/kaboomed carbon upper?  Saw some once, may not have been on this site though.

People see them, they look ok and are cheap until you find out the real info on them.

Remember that you were warned when the shitbox they sold you explodes in your face, falls apart, cracks in half or does another of the many amazing failures that Vulcan/Hesse products are famous for.  Why would you change the company name if the reputation was good?

Also, as I understand it, Vulcan will not stand behind their product.- No warranty......

Big +1
They have no warranty.
This means even they don't trust their products.
I wander who builds the guns they shoot?
