With each release of the new grips will there be additional production runs of gunfighter bases? I only bought one gunfighter but know in the future I will need another base to go with the space grip.

So far I enjoy my gunfighter and the quality is amazing the only thing I don't care for is the cheapish plastic feel of the k12 grip, metal would feel fantastic. That said will the MCG/Spacesim be made from a metal alloy or will it also be plastic?


Considering that the Gunfighter is the base of choice for a lot of the future VKB offerings, there will be more coming, of course. As always, VKB produces in batches, so it's not available constantly, as batches usually sell out rather swiftly, but stock will be there.

The MCG will use higher quality plastic than that of the KG12, so it will feel a lot more like the CH Pro products (which are highly regarded when it comes to that).

In the future, there will be some "Replica" editions of VKB grips, which are made from metal and are costly to produce - so no ETA on those just yet.

Dying to order two of the MCG gunfighter sticks in right and left. I was sad to see the bases ect get pushed back a few weeks to June.

Surprising considering that sticktion-fest of a gimbal they use. I never enjoyed mine, but I was able to use adapt the grip to my Mamba. Works well.

I have a Volair Sim cockpit and I just bought a Gunfighter MkII MCG. But I don't have a low enought center support.

Would it be possible for you to show or explain how you made your center mount to support the stick?? The standard Volair Sim center support on my cockpit is way too 'high'. It is made to support a table top stick. It is not low enough for a stick extension.. And I don't see any options on the Volair Sim website..

Thanks,

Sorry to resurrect this thread, but I've had the North America site on refresh for the past 6 months. I was recently told to come here and post!

I would love to have a Tabletop Gunfighter with MCG Pro, but I also plan on getting a stick extension kit and a TM Warthog adapter (since I currently have the Warthog). That way I'll have the most options.

Anyway, just wanted to let you guys know there's still interest in the North American market!

I also would like a Tabletop gunfighter with a MCG Pro grip. I was all ready to order one back in Sept when it said the new batch would arrive but they never appeared. It just went from “Arriving in Sept” to “TBD”. Europe seems to have gotten theirs. I don’t know why we did not in the USA? Did VKB North America not order any?

I have been waiting for a KG12 gunfighter pro for a very long time (US). I wish they would better inform us on the reality of the logistics.

I see that VKB- Europe is expecting a new batch in January. Will US/Canada be getting any of those? Is VKB US still a going concern or do we need to order from Europe?

I would please like an update as well. I have money burning in my pocket and would love to get a gunfighter pro. I need to upgrade from my old saitek 52x pro.
