He lost his federal dealer license a couple of years ago after multiple weapons turned up missing from his shop. He claimed they were cannibalized to build other guns which may be true but he should have reported them as destroyed.

Vince was clearly the serious gunsmith on the show and had little interest in the reality TV thing or associated soap opera.
