Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Mike, is the backstrap a single size or will you be offering different choices (similar to the MIAD concept)?
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

OK now this is seriously good! Will certainly be in for a couple of sets.
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

They got an uniqueness all to themselves.

Vaguely European.

Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Those are super cool, I know I am one of those people who doesn't do too well with the standard thumbhole.
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Looks great -
Hope you make CIP Long Action skins soon

Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Hi all
Quick question for you ?
These new sides look great.. my rifle looks pretty beat up now , very old must be 8 years . It's the non folder .none adjustable cheek piece.
How easy is it to convert to adjustable cheek, just drill a couple
of holes?
I was just quoted £85 for a new set , glad I waited

I've just done one, you need to cut the fixed cheek piece off and then drill a couple of holes. Its fairly easy to do but the plastic is not great to work with. Looks ok when done - the adjustable cheek piece covers all the evidence of the DIY job...
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Thanks ,
Should give the old bang stick a new lease of life
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

My wallet is starting to hurt, holding out for FDE though
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Really, for the price it'd almost be silly NOT to get a set if you're not happy with the thumb hole... It's an investment.

I just ordered an AICS AX from the UK, kicking myself that the AICS 1.5 was sold off... Or these awesome skins would have gone straight on and saved almost a grand!! *face palm*

Will you be making adjustable Palm swells like the AX?? and is it compatible with the butt spikes??
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

nice!
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Insurance payout just been put in the bank and these rock up, must be fate, I'll be in for a set (if you ship to Oz that is).
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

If someone pulls off their 1.5 fde's for a set of these let me know. I like the thumbhole, lol
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Well I just got a new 1.5 so glad to see this if I deciide to change it up.

One thing I can't see, is the bottom screw on the recoil pad still able to protrude forward through the skins to allow mounting of the Accu Shot monopods?

Rich </div></div>

Rich- yes there is a hole to mount the AccuShot monopods on the 'hook'. Though I must confess, I haven't mounted one yet but will try to get my hands on one and see how it fits. </div></div>

It should... though we haven't tried it yet.
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

I was waiting for AX stocks to hit the market...$1300 vs $199?

Did you just make the AX obsolete?
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

They look sharp! I would like to see them in some additional colors.
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

A Multicam version would be awesome...

That's easy....just get the standard color dipped or painted
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

After seeing Pete Lincoln's RCSII with pistol grip panels, I was wondering when someone would do something similar on this side of the pond... Hell maybe you could sell some to him since he is having supply issues over there, would be win win for all.

Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Its Friday, any time now they should be up for grabs!
 
Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

Hey Guys-

Slight delay in the final shipment, they are being produced this week and will be in my hands by Friday 9/9. Our site will be accepting orders on Tuesday and I will get them out to you on a first come, first served basis. Also your CC will not be charged until they actually ship.

They are looking amazing, I will have more pics up this weekend!

Thanks,

Michael V.

3)If you don't get around to colors, would these skins handle being hydro-dipped ok? They'd look wicked dipped in ATACS film... </div></div>

That might work but how durable is the hydo dipping though?</div></div>

I don't really know, I think it depends a lot on the surface it is applied to. It's something i'd have to look into for sure, hence why I was phishing for info here, lol. </div></div>

Hydro dipping can be durable as the companies spray matte clear cerakote (or duracote) once the dip is dry.

PTD I just sent Michael a pm suggesting something similar. Michael drop me a line, maybe we can come to a mutual arrangement and a win win situation for us all. Then i can tell the Auto industry orientated, pascifistic plastics industry over here to take a long walk of a short peer.

Re: NEW PRODUCT: VIPERSKINS Pistol Grip AICS Skins

How about a 1.5 picture ?

I'm curious to see how the connection of the two piece skins is for the 1.5 version where they meet at the butt stock to grip. On the 2.0 it has the folder to separate it but it would be good to see how its made on the 1.5.

Also are the 1.5's molded without the locking holes for folding stock that the 2.0 has ?

Great pics and looking forward to giving them a go !

Our non folding ViperSkins for the AICS 1.5 are essentially the same as the folding ones, the only difference is the there is no space for the hinge. The 1.5 skins are comprised of four separate pieces so there will be a very small seam where they meet but it's negligible.

We'll post pics as soon as they arrive on Friday.
