Kriss Vector CRB Gen2 10mm Alpine CA Compliant Semi-Automatic Rifle

The Kriss Vector CRB Gen2 10mm Alpine CA Compliant semi-automatic rifle brings modern engineering and California-legal design to shooters looking for a no-compromise 10mm platform. Built on the legendary Kriss Vector platform, the Gen2 CRB (Carbine) combines the stopping power of 10mm with the precision and ergonomics that have made the Vector a favorite among tactical shooters and defense-minded hunters. If you want a rifle that handles like an AR, shoots like a dedicated 10mm, and respects your state's regulations, this is the gun.

At its core, the Vector Gen2 uses Kriss's patented Super V Recoil Mitigation System—a closed-bolt delayed blowback operating system designed to redirect recoil energy and keep the gun running soft and controllable. The 16-inch 4143 chrome-moly barrel, finished in hard black nitride (QPQ), is paired with a 1:10 right-hand twist rifling that stabilizes 10mm projectiles reliably. The ambidextrous safety lever lets you operate the gun from either shoulder without fumbling, and the smooth single-stage pivoting trigger breaks at 5.5 pounds with audible and tactile reset feedback.

Ergonomics aren't an afterthought here. A full-length MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail runs the top of the receiver for optic mounting, while a bottom rail gives you flexibility for weapon lights, lasers, or grips. Low-profile folding sights keep things compact and cowitness-friendly. The six-position adjustable stock lets you dial in your ideal length of pull, and the left-side button magazine release is positioned for natural thumb operation. The Vector also accepts standard Glock G20 magazines—inexpensive, widely available, and reliable.

Weight comes in at 8.7 pounds, and the overall package measures 36.38 inches when fully extended. Magazine capacity is 10+1 to meet California compliance. Strip it down tool-free with the four-pin disassembly system, and you'll appreciate the thoughtful engineering throughout. If you're shopping for a modern 10mm carbine that plays by California rules without sacrificing performance, the Vector CRB Gen2 is worth serious consideration.
