The Kriss Vector G2 CRB .45 ACP semi-auto rifle in FDE delivers one of the most distinctive platforms in modern sporting rifles. Built around Kriss USA's patented KSV delayed-blowback operating system, this rifle cycles the powerful .45 ACP cartridge with engineered reliability and control. Whether you're looking for a unique home-defense rifle, a specialized training platform, or simply something that stands out at the range, the Vector G2 CRB brings serious engineering to a caliber usually reserved for handguns—and that novelty factor is part of the appeal.
The .45 ACP chambering in a rifle format opens practical possibilities: inherent subsonic capability for suppressed fire, ammunition interchangeability with .45 ACP pistols in your safe, and moderate recoil that makes follow-up shots easy. The 16-inch barrel and collapsible stock keep overall length compact (35.25 inches collapsed, 38.5 inches extended), making the CRB handy in tight spaces while the 6.8-inch profile keeps it balanced and ergonomic. At 7.8 pounds unloaded, it's light enough for extended handling without fatigue.
Build quality reflects Kriss's reputation for innovation: an advanced metal and polymer-composite frame finished in durable Cerakote, paired with that proprietary KSV system that tames recoil and keeps shots on target. The 30-round magazine capacity gives you substantial firepower in a rifle that refuses to look like anything else on the range. FDE (Flat Dark Earth) furniture rounds out a practical aesthetic that works as hard as it looks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Kriss Vector G2 CRB different from a standard rifle?
The Vector G2 uses Kriss USA's patented KSV delayed-blowback system, a closed-bolt operating design engineered to manage recoil and cycling in the .45 ACP cartridge. This isn't a typical AR or piston gun—it's a purpose-built platform that harnesses the power of a full-size rifle cartridge in a compact, controllable package.
Can I use .45 ACP ammunition from my handguns in this rifle?
Yes. The Vector G2 CRB is chambered in standard .45 ACP, the same cartridge used in millions of .45 ACP pistols. This opens up practical options for ammunition sharing across your collection, especially if you reload or stock common .45 ACP loads.
Is this rifle compact enough for home defense or vehicle carry?
The collapsible stock makes it adaptable: it collapses to 35.25 inches overall length and weighs just 7.8 pounds unloaded, keeping it relatively handy in confined spaces. The 16-inch barrel and compact profile make it considerably easier to maneuver than a full-size rifle, though individual needs and local laws will dictate suitability for any specific role.
What's included with the rifle?
The Vector G2 CRB comes with one 30-round magazine. Additional specifications, components, and any accessories are listed in the specs section above.
