- Check out the Vyper and everything else Kobra VR has to offer on their Etsy Store - www.etsy.com/shop/KobraVR
Often times, when it comes to VR Gunstocks you have to choose between something that looks cool or something that just works. You can't have both in the same stock, that is until NOW. Kobra VR just dropped their newest, and possibly best VR gun stock they've ever made, The Vyper! It combines the looks of stocks like their Wolverine DMR and Mag-Lock Pro with their incredibly versatile Sidewinder stock to create the perfect marriage of looks and utility. While it is a great stock, I do have one significant gripe with it that keeps it from being perfect. If you're into VR shooters and own an Oculus (aka Meta) Quest 2 and are looking for a gunstock that offers top tier performance and looks amazing, you're going to want to give the Vyper a look.

Looks OR Utility? How About BOTH!! - Kobra Vyper VR Gunstock Review - Ігри
Cheers for the review. That annimation you were talking about taking forever - the hard work paid off! 🙃
As always thanks so much to you and Fal for allowing me to test your stocks and share my opinion. I don't know how many hours exactly I worked on that 5 seconds but my hope was it would be a fun way to visualize the DMR and Sidewinder merging into one. 😅
Wooooooohooooooo giveaway time!!! This will make someone happy for sure this badboy is top notch for sure!!!
Curious how the Quest 3's increased handtracking performance and smaller grips may change how we handle VR gunstocks.
I can imagine the controllers to be used for the stock itself, whereas any in game "hands off" interaction could be handled by the actual hand instead.
This way, we wouldn‘t need to be reliant on inserting the grip of the controller into an unseen bracket, but could keep it inside the stock.
Man, love my sidewinder but this viper looks sweet
I love the Sidewinder as well. It's my go to stock. I love how light weight it is and when it comes to functionality there's not much that can match it IMO. The Vyper is very much like the Sidewinder but it's a bit heavier and the extra aesthetic bits can get in the way a little like I mentioned in the video, but it functions really well over all and definitely looks SICK!
The Vyper absolutely looks sick!! Thanks for all you do on your channel. I have learned so much, and really enjoy how you present all the info. Keep doing what you are doing!!!! Also tell Falandorn and the guys at KobraVR they are absolutely killing it!! I have tried 4 different brands of stocks now and theirs are head and shoulders above the rest! @@Maraksot78
By the way that was a clean split view animation of the real view and the vr view for the reload animations. P.S. Anyone doing a proper mag flick on an AK platform got my respect 😂
You like that side by side eh? Me too. I think it's really interesting seeing the real world view side by side the game view. I love doing the mag flick! It's fun! 😀
Can you do a review of the evil games stock available on Etsy?
I dont see this one on their site… might just go with the sidewinder
I saw the bipod and was like 😮
I'm just curious, do you use the Kiwi grips (2nd gen) with these stocks? I think you've got the black/grey variant in this review. I'm thinking of getting them. Got their battery head strap, facial interface, and case, so have nothing but good things to say about Kiwi's accessories. Anyway, the Vyper doesn't appear to be available yet, so I think I'll go for the Sidewinder.
I use some grips from AMVR which replace the battery cover on the Quest 2 controllers and don't add any bulk like silicone grip covers do. I used to use a Kiwi design head strap and really liked it. I recently switched to one from a company called BinBok VR that has hot swappable 8000Mah battery packs which has been great for me since I make VR videos. It allows me to keep using my headset all day long if needed. I love the Sidewinder! It's a great stock. It's super lightweight and performs excellently for all your SMG's, AR's and other rifles. Right about the time I put this video out, Kobra VR's Etsy store got hacked and was taken down for several days. Dealing with that put them behind on launching the Vyper, but I talked to Falandorn today about it and he said there's just a few more things to finalize and it'll be up for sale. He didn't specify a date but just said it would be available soon.
@@Maraksot78 Thank you for the rapid response and the introduction of a new accessory maker, AMVR. I'll get those for general compatibility. That hot swappable battery strap from BinBok VR sounds incredible, but I am happy with the strap from Kiwi because I (and the Goddaughter who I regularly babysit and VR keeps her quiet) rarely play for more than 3 hours per session before I need a couple of hours to catch my breath. I think I'll get the SW with its adjustable shoulder stock and cheek-rest. I'm not really fussed on the aesthetics of it and more concerned with aiming stability and completing the illusion that I'm holding a two-handed gun or pistol w/stock, and the folding action looks very handy for throwing, interactions, and picking stuff up off the ground. I'll probably get the pump action attachment at a later date. As odd as it feels to "hold" 2-handed guns in VR wo/stock, pumping a shotgun in VR with just the two Q2 controllers is very weird and worse in those panicky moments.
Hey @Maraksot78 what is the next GPU you are going to test for the can it VR thing, hoping you would test the 6800 xt or non xt or the 7900xt.
I'm currently working on benchmarking the RX 7600
All Cobra gunstocks look great.
It's a shame only, that updating the Etsy shop with new products is so slow. I was waiting, if the magnetic front holder or the Vader conversion kit for Quest controllers would show up in the store.
Finally I didn't have the patience to wait for them or wait for Vyper and bought a Sidewinder with a new shoulder rest.
Too bad I couldn't buy the Pump Action Addon, the price would be over 150€. The shipment would have gone through customs, which is a terrible bureaucracy. When I bought things from outside the EU that cost more than 150€, many times they stood in customs for 2 months before they were cleared and delivered to me...
@maraksot78 Would you say the vyper is more versatile than the sidewinder when it comes to using snipers and assault rifles? Wanting to play into the radius with snipers but also contractors with ars/smgs.
The Vyper and the Sidewinder are functionally the same stock. Both stocks perform fantastic in games; the Vyper is mostly just the more expensive, cooler looking version. The extra plastic does make it weigh more though too. Not a huge deal, but something worth noting. It does also have an adjustable shoulder stock and adjustable cheek rest which the Sidewinder does not, so it has a little more adjustability to it, but when it comes to getting your sights on the target and using different guns they're the same.
Just to clarify, the Sidewinder and Vyper are Quest 2 stocks; just in case you have a Quest 3, you should know, they don't work with the Quest 3's controllers. The two stocks Kobra VR sells currently for the Quest 3 are the Blitzer and their Mag-Lock Ultra, but if you're on Quest 2 then you're good to go with either the Sidewinder or the Vyper.
@@Maraksot78 thanks for replying so quickly. That's why you're my favorite VR UA-camr. 👍
hope after quest 3 relesed this stock will have better version
hi i have un pc lenovo Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-10100 CPU @ 3.60GHz 3.60 GHz hoo to upgrade this one
When does the kobra vyper come out? Tried looking for it n can’t find it anywhere only the other white one
Hmmm... I don't know. I didn't realize it wasn't on their store right now. Right around the time I brought this video out someone tried to hack their Etsy store and it was down for several days while they got that figured out, so that may have something to do with why they're taking longer to get the Vyper up on there? I'll reach out to Falandorn and see and come back later with another reply when I know.
That would be much appreciated looking to get one asap cause this video try and get a date on when they’ll have it back 😁
Ok... I talked to Falandorn and he said their store getting hacked set them back a little bit but also said the Vyper will be launching soon. He didn't specify a date but said there was a few little things he was tweaking on it to get it ready for production and it'll be ready. So yah, I don't know how long it's going to be exactly but based off of how quickly he's been able to move on things in the past, I imagine it's going to be within the next week. Maybe two weeks at the most. But again that's just me making a guess.
Man this stock seem literally perfect. It's a shame it's been delayed so much thanks to the Etsy store being hacked and other circumstances. Obviously I understand that was out of Kobra's control, but is there any update of when it will be available? Is he making a bunch of them and stocking up so he won't sell out as quickly on release?
Yah, their store getting hacked kinda threw a wrench into things and now that the Quest 3 has launched Fal's hard at work designing a stock to work with it because all his existing designs don't work with the new controllers because they track so differently than the Quest 2 controllers and even the Quest Pro controllers. Every time someone asks me when the Vyper is coming I bug him about it and as of right now he's put it on the back burner until he gets the Quest 3 stock sorted out.
@@Maraksot78 That makes sense. I am curious how he'll design stocks moving forward, but since I don't have a Q3 I'm more concerned with the Vyper. It kind of feels like the culmination of all his older Q2 stocks so if he focuses exclusively on the Q3 moving forward I'm okay with that. I just kinda wish he'd get the Vyper out before designing new stocks.
@blake2697 The Vyper really is the culmination of all of Falandorn's different gunstock designs. It's got it all IMO. It's got exceptional functionality and looks amazing too. I assumed they would have released the Vyper before now, but I'm sure they have their reasons. I do know with the Quest 3 just launching it is important for them to get a stock out for it before the buzz and excitement fades, plus ai think Falandorn loves designing and creating more than anything else. That guy never stops tweaking, improving and perfecting his stocks.
will this work out of the box for quest 3?
No, this stock only works with the Quest 2. Kobra VR had hoped they'd be able to retro fit their Quest 2 gunstocks to work with the Quest 3 controllers, but it turns out the way they track is very different than the Quest 2 controllers and they ran into a host of problems trying to come up with a retro fit solution. In the end, they had to design a completely new gunstock for the Quest 3 which is actually going to launch very soon. I'm currently working on a review of it. I'm hoping to have it done this week. 🙂
do they have an available version for left handed people?
Yes
That price tag is criminal...
Been like 4 weeks and the stock still haven’t arrived
did you ever recieve your stock?
Why isnt the vyper on their Etsy store?
It's coming. Unfortunately things have gotten slowed down a bit. Right after this video went live, their store got hacked and Etsy shut down their store. It then took the better part of a week to get it back up and running again. And since they couldn't access their account during that time, they couldn't access their order information, so that messed up their production schedule a bit. They've also been working on launching a store through Shopify, and it's taking longer than they anticipated to get it all set up. I keep asking them when the Vyper and new store will be up, and they just keep saying "soon".
I think saints and sinners freezes when you get closer to a zombie because your ram isn't fast enough
5 months later and still not for sale. Sad.
Good news! It's up on their store now! Yes it has taken a long time, but good things come to those who wait. 😅
