The Vektor CP-1, a South African 9mm pistol developed in 1995, featured a polymer frame and a gas-delayed blowback system inspired by the HK P7. Despite its innovative design, including CAD development and a unique trigger guard safety, it suffered from reliability issues with certain ammunition and a critical drop-safety flaw discovered in 2000. This led to a recall, significantly impacting its legacy, though rare variants and media appearances keep its memory alive.
The Vektor SS77 is a South African GPMG developed in the 1970s due to arms embargoes. It features a design influenced by the SG-43 Goryunov, AR-18, and FN MAG, incorporating a side-tilting bolt and a quick-change barrel. Initial reliability issues led to a redesign in the 1990s, resulting in an improved version.
