About KobraVR Gunstocks

Yep, the About Us page — spoiler: it involves VR gunstocks, too much gaming, and an engineer who never quite logged off.

VR Gunstock Origins

I’m Falan (Simon) — inventor of the first VR gunstock and co-founder of KobraVR. That’s me on the home page banner.

Back in 2013, I tried the Oculus Rift DK1, and it was amazing. Even with only tech demos and early alphas, it was clear to me that virtual reality gaming was about to change everything.

As consumer headsets started getting closer to release, I realised I wanted VR shooting to feel realistic — something that connected you to the game. So, as an avid gamer, a real-world shooter, trained product designer and mechanical engineer, I mixed all of that together and built the very first VR gunstock.

We called it the noobtube and shared it on Reddit in 2016 as a DIY project (yep, that was me). I even strapped on a bass shaker for haptics, making it the first haptic VR gunstock. It was ugly, heavy, and unwieldy… but it worked — and it kicked off what would later become KobraVR.

KobraVR Gunstocks

The noobtube was never meant to be a product — just a DIY project so other players could build their own VR gunstocks. But the idea stuck.

I wanted to take it further, so in 2022 I formally registered KobraVR as a company; along with my wife, Jay (she’s the smart one who built and edits the site). Since then, we’ve kept tweaking, testing, and listening to what players actually want — improving every part of our VR stocks along the way.

That constant tinkering has led to plenty of firsts in the VR gunstock world — things like grab/half-cup grips, flip stocks, and pump-action mechanisms that improve aim, adjustability, and immersion. And we’re still creating new ways to make KobraVR gunstocks the most adaptable VR accessories for today’s Meta Quest and Sony PSVR2 players.

Future Gunstocks

VR gaming keeps evolving — with new first-person shooters, extraction, and battle-royale titles landing all the time, each with their own quirks. Our job, therefore, is to keep KobraVR stocks ahead of the curve — modular, fast to adjust, and built to handle whatever the next big release throws at them.

We now offer a range of VR gunstocks and accessories for Meta Quest and Sony PSVR2, designed to stay solid in the jankiest of games... and the not-so-janky ones too!
