I only have experience with the carbine in 45acp. Good accuracy, very little recoil and just a blast to shoot. The korean "gloock" mags are a no go due to feed issues with the mag fail. The vector 45 mags work great. I would think the 9mm would have fewer mag issues. $.02

I have this years model with all the latest revisions. Had it a couple months now. I absolutely love it. I grab it to go to the range 80% of the time. I have about 750 rounds or so down range. A mix of Fiocchi & Remington 115gr and 124gr Russian steel cased Novosibirsk. It shoots the 124gr stuff the most accurately. I have had zero malfunctions. But, I did have a bit of a learning curve on hand placement. If you hold with your off hand near the mag release you can hit it and drop the mag accidentally during firing. I did this twice in the first 100 rounds and haven't done it since.

I have a Gen2 9mm, about a 1000 surpressed rounds thru it via an Osprey. Its a blast to shoot, handles well, recoil is neglible and it hits what you are aiming at every time. I had wanted one since they came out but hesitated at the feedback they where getting, my shop got the Gen2s in finally and I impulse purchased and glad I did. Everyone who shots it enjoys it. I have an SBR’ed MPX as well which I enjoy a bunch but for my non scientific testing the Kriss sends less gas back at the shooter which makes it more enjoyable for those not used to shooting supressed.
I have the brace version and I am still debating if I am going to stamp it as it shoots and handles so well as is. I have run a mix of ammo thru it. And mags, are a plenty. I had a 30 rounders laying ariound so that helped. |

I have the Gen 2 9mm as well and it is great. Very accurate and reliable. Just a note that even though the brace has a hinge on the buffer assembly, it is pinned and does NOT side fold like the full auto version does. I have no idea why they did that as many other braces fold.

Does that brace fold? I don't see a hinge.

Alright, So i picked up a gen 2 vector 9mm in a trade, and I have to say "I LOVE IT!" It's a ton of fun to shoot, not as smooth as the mp5, but not a violent kickback recoil, the gun kinda hops in your hands and thats about it. The one I got did not come with sights however, So I am quickly going to remedy that and than shoot some groups on paper and see how it shoots.

I've had my KV gen2 for about a month and have put 800 rounds though it including cheap range ammo, whitebox, blue box and several types of reloads and it has yet to fail me. I was working up some subsonic loads and it feed the lightest charge that would not eject in my G19 or Scorpion. It is a really handy pistol (with factory arm brace) and shoots just fine with aftermarket 33 round magazines.

I've had my Gen 2 Vector SBR now for about a year. Accuracy is great, the recoil is very low, the Gen 2 trigger is nicer than the Gen 1 trigger. My main complaint is sight height over bore, which is about 4 inches. I did also have to shave down the safety on the right side of the firearm as it was digging into my finger.

Ok guys, let me know everything you know about the space gun that is the Kriss Vector 9mm, not finding too many videos out there on youtube about it, Want to know how it is from owners of the gun. Hows the accuracy, and does the recoil reduction work on it? Had my carbine for a few months now, so far close to 1k without complaints. Eats everything I fed but likes hotter stuff, specially 124 gr JHP over 4.3. gr Titegroup. I compared it side by side with my Scorpion and the KV wins just from the amount of muzzle movements (or lack of). Granted this carbine is muzzle heavy due to the long shroud over barrel, but its forward movement after recoil is virtually non existence due to the small bolt comparing to the heavy bolt of the CZ. I think this alone is the factor in keeping the muzzle from moving around. Here is an old pix of it without the factory folding stock. I replaced the non folding rear end with a factory folder last week (much better IMO!).

How is reliability with hollowpoints?

How is reliability with hollowpoints? In my OEM Glock 33rnd mags, I can load about 28 rounds of Hornady Critical Duty but only about 25 rounds of Speer GDHP. Anything more and the round noses into the feed ramp and gets stuck. This is mainly due to the tension in the mag and the angle at which the round sits. Any more rounds and the round has a tendency to sit flat. When the bolt tries to strip the round, the flat portion of the JHP gets stuck against the feed ramp. In my 21rnd Magpul Glock mags, I load 20 rounds and have not run into any issues yet. |

I have not had any issues with 124 or 115 JHP using both Glock 32 rds and Magpul 21 rds. I loaded Precision Delta JHP to 1.10 OAL length to work with my CZ pistols but this OAL also works in S&W M&P, and Glock 17. It is working with Kriss Vector too.

Ok, but what round are you using, are you loading to capacity and are your Glock 33rnd mags new or already broken in? Quote HistoryQuoted:
