The Kriss Vector CRB G3 .45 ACP semi-auto carbine (Kriss part no. KV45-3C2T00) brings the round the Vector platform was originally built around to a rifle-length CRB configuration, finished in a Black and FDE two-tone scheme. A compliant 16-inch barrel keeps this Vector legal to own as a rifle, and the same low-bore-axis engineering that made the Vector family famous keeps muzzle rise noticeably tame for a .45-caliber carbine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a pistol or a rifle? With its 16-inch barrel, this is configured and sold as a rifle, not a pistol or short-barreled variant.

Why was .45 ACP the Vector’s original caliber? Kriss engineered the Vector’s Super V recoil system specifically around .45 ACP’s recoil impulse before expanding the platform to other calibers.
