The Kriss USA Vector CRB Gen 2 in .45 ACP is a modern sporting rifle built around a proprietary delayed-blowback operating system designed to manage recoil and keep you on target. This 16-inch barrel carbine delivers the power of a full-sized .45 ACP round in a compact, maneuverable package—ideal for home defense, law enforcement training, or sport shooting where you want serious stopping power without an unwieldy footprint. The FDE finish and California-compliant configuration make this a practical choice for shooters in restricted states.
What sets the Vector CRB Gen 2 apart is the Kriss Super V System (KSV), a patented closed-bolt design that channels recoil energy downward and rearward rather than straight back into your shoulder. The result is less muzzle climb and faster target reacquisition compared to conventional blowback systems. The aluminum frame paired with advanced polymer composites keeps weight down to 7.8 pounds unloaded, so you're not fatigued after extended training sessions or defensive drills.
Built with Cerakote finish over its metal and polymer frame, the Vector CRB Gen 2 is engineered for durability in demanding conditions. The compact collapsed length of 35.25 inches and extended length of 38.5 inches give you flexibility for tight spaces or longer sight radius work. A single 10-round G21 magazine comes standard, meeting California regulations while providing ample capacity for most shooting scenarios. Whether you're running drills at the range, setting up for home security, or exploring what a .45 ACP carbine can do, the Vector CRB Gen 2 brings modern engineering and proven ergonomics to the table.
