The VKTR VK-1P is an Armor Black 5.56 NATO pistol with a 10.5-inch barrel and a piston-driven action (brand part no. V-3110-0916-617). VKTR Industries lists Armor Black as one of the color options on this model, alongside Magpul FDE and Sniper Grey. The VK-1 short-stroke piston is built to the footprint and weight of a standard direct-impingement AR-15, so it handles like the guns shooters already know. A free-float handguard and a hammer-forged heavy-profile barrel round out a compact package for home defense and range use.

Key Specifications

• Chambering is 5.56 NATO, the standard cartridge for the AR-15 platform.
• Barrel length is 10.5 inches, which keeps the pistol short and quick to handle.
• The barrel is a hammer-forged heavy profile with machined cooling flutes, giving heat tolerance without much extra weight.
• Rifling twist is 1:7, a rate that suits the common heavier 5.56 loads.
• The operating system is the VK-1 short-stroke piston, which separates the gas from the receiver for a cleaner action.
• The handguard is a 9.85-inch VK-1 design, with space for lights and a support-hand grip.
• The rear support is an SB Tactical SBA3 pistol brace, and VKTR lists the buttstock as none.
