Published on March 1, 2018
Duration: 10:05

The Kriss Vector SMG features a unique recoil mitigation system and a high rate of fire, available in 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm. While impressive, its rapid magazine depletion and unique vibration during full-auto fire make it less practical for sustained use compared to older SMG designs. The civilian semi-auto configuration has limited practical application.

Quick Summary

The Kriss Vector SMG features a unique recoil redirection system and a high rate of fire (1100-1450 RPM) in calibers like 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm. While it mitigates muzzle climb, its rapid magazine depletion limits practicality for sustained fire.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the Kriss Vector SMG?

The Kriss Vector SMG features a folding/collapsible stock, a 6.5-inch barrel with a tri-lug adapter, and an aluminum handguard. It offers semi-auto, two-round burst, and full-auto fire modes, with controls like magazine release, safety, and bolt catch clearly accessible.

How does the Kriss Vector SMG handle recoil?

The Vector SMG uses a recoil redirection system that pushes mass downward to counteract muzzle climb. While effective, its high rate of fire can introduce a unique vibration or 'jitter' during full-auto operation.

What calibers is the Kriss Vector SMG available in?

The Kriss Vector SMG is offered in multiple calibers, including 9mm, .45 ACP, and 10mm. This allows for versatility depending on user preference and availability.

Is the Kriss Vector SMG practical for sustained fire?

Reviewers suggest the Kriss Vector SMG is less practical for sustained fire compared to older SMG designs due to its extremely high rate of fire, which leads to rapid magazine depletion. The semi-auto civilian version is noted to have limited practical application.
