    I want to get a Kriss Vector but it is unclear if it is MD legal. I did a forum search still not sure. Anyone have a definitive answer? Are all or any models legal?

    not trying to hijack both pistol and carbine are legal, it can meet oal with some work and modifications but it can do it...
    does anyone who owns one reading this have issues with there sight zero?
    poi isn't quite working out as well as I hoped for such a flat round....
    tips?
    and suppressed it shoots way left, just my bum luck? it has already gone back to kriss once for just shooting way left unsupressed... but it is seemingly a problem child for me where I hear nothing but great stories from everyone else

    Sorry to hear that, I have nothing but positive things to say about mine.

    Resurrecting this thread. Ambi mag release question

    I bought the airsoft ambi mag release because it was slated to work with the real steel vectors. I tried installing on my gen 2 .45acp pistol. The install didn't work due to the mag release lug that goes thru the well isn't long enough. It just didn't work.

    https://shop.jkarmy.com/ace1-arms-kriss-vector-right-hand-magazine-release.html

    After watching the video of the guy who first tried making his own ambi release, I figured that the jk army works only on the gen 1 vectors.

    I have the jk army release still I haven't returned it. It seems well built.
    My question is has anyone modified or made something that works with gen 2's?.

    I've had my pistol for quite some time. Use it for my bedroom firearm with the 25rd extended mags and a can. Since it has a singular purpose range time has been spent under 10 yards and moving. Never had a problem after 2000 rounds

    do you use a suppressor with a booster? i had that problem too until i replaced the booster with a spacer and now its very consistent

    They’re legal in handgun and carbine as people have said. With that said, has anyone that actually owns one experienced any issues? I’ve seen a bunch of posts that say theres issues with feeding and ejection, but seems to be luck of the drawl.

    The gen2 Kriss vector with an SB tactical SBA3 brace that is fully extended has an overall length of greater than 26” ( 26.10”) making it a “ firearm “ instead of a pistol.

    The addition of a side folding hinge add another 1.5” to the overall length.

    This is a game changer as the brace/ folder upgrade revkasses it from a pistol into a firearm. Therefore, a vertical foregrip can be installed without violating NFA laws.

    The vertical foregrip is a must for the correct handling of the Kriss vector. ( as not to inadvertently actuate left side controls )
