Is Vector done?

[xtalpimp]

I know Vector got in trouble with the Gov for supplying non spec ammo or re-selling non spec ammo.

As a gun maker are they kaput? I was really happy with the quality at the prices they were asking for.

So are they done or are they still going to reorg and continue? The website is still up, but from what I can see it do not sound good.

Someone know for fact if they are or if they aren't still around?

[Q]

Me thinks so, I sent a email, usually they answer right away, haven't heard from them. Vector goods have sky rocketed, probably the best brand to invest in right now.

Dang! The stuff I got from them I thought was a super deal for the fit and finish. Was hoping to get more but with the panic buying and them out O' business its does not look good

Vector Arms? So my 5 year warranty on my AKM is no longer good?

I believe they were importing Chinese ammo to sell to Afghanistan/Iraq....violating the federal import ban.

You can learn more about this on the HK Pro forum.

Hopefully someone buys them and keeps them open. I want one of their UZIs.

Well that sucks. Greed got the best of them.

Also like to add, that Vector Arms is also being sued by H&K for patent infringement (something to do with making HK53 clones).

Looks like they are out of business. That's a shame. I hope someone else will fill the void of HK93s, UZIs, MP5s, RPK-74s, and RPDs. Dammit, they were CA friendly too.

I am friends with one of their former employees... According to him, they have been completely shut down.

Sounds like an opportunity for Robinson Armament to start making new guns.
