Key Features
- Super V Recoil Mitigation System – Why it matters: This patented design redirects recoil energy downward and rearward, reducing muzzle climb and felt recoil by up to 60% compared to traditional blowback actions. You stay on target faster, shot after shot.
- Low Bore Axis – Why it matters: By placing the barrel closer to your hand, the Vector minimizes torque and flip. This means quicker follow-up shots and better control during rapid fire, especially with a suppressor attached.
- Threaded Barrel (1/2×28) – Why it matters: The factory-threaded barrel lets you mount a suppressor or compensator without gunsmithing. For home defense or range work, it gives you the flexibility to run quiet or flat-shooting.
- Full-Length MK5 Modular Rail – Why it matters: The continuous Picatinny top rail and M-LOK slots on the sides let you mount optics, lights, lasers, and foregrips exactly where you need them. No adapters needed.
- Ambidextrous Safety and Magazine Release – Why it matters: Left-handed or right-handed, you get full control without swapping parts. The safety is easy to reach and positive, and the mag release is reversible for southpaws.
Who It’s For
This pistol is for the southern shooter who wants a reliable, low-recoil platform for home defense or truck gun duty. It suits the bird hunter who appreciates quick handling and fast follow-ups on clays, or the tactical shooter who needs a compact pistol that runs with a suppressor and a light. If you value cross-compatibility with Glock magazines and a proven recoil system, this Vector fits the bill.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Super V system dramatically reduces muzzle rise; accepts standard Glock magazines; threaded barrel ready for suppressors; full-length rail for accessories; ambidextrous controls.
- Cons: The trigger pull is heavier than some competition-grade pistols (around 6-7 lbs), which may require an aftermarket upgrade for precision shooting. Also, the unique bolt design means field stripping takes a little practice compared to a traditional Glock.

FAQ
Will this work with my Glock 19 magazines?
Yes, the KRISS Vector SDP-E G2 accepts full-size Glock 9mm magazines, including the G17, G19, G34, and G45. It will also work with aftermarket Glock-pattern mags from Magpul or ETS. Just make sure they are 9mm, not .40 or .45.
Can I mount a red dot on this pistol?
Absolutely. The MK5 rail features a continuous Picatinny top section, so you can mount any red dot or holographic sight with a Picatinny base. Popular options include the Trijicon RMR, Holosun 507C, or EOTech EFLX with the appropriate mount.
Is the barrel threaded for a suppressor?
Yes, the barrel is factory-threaded 1/2×28, which is the standard thread pitch for 9mm suppressors. You can also attach a compensator or muzzle brake without any modifications.
What is the trigger pull weight?
Per KRISS specs, the trigger pull is approximately 6-7 lbs. It’s a crisp, two-stage design that works well for defensive use. If you want a lighter trigger, aftermarket kits are available.
Does this pistol have a manual safety?
Yes, it has an ambidextrous thumb safety located on the frame above the grip. It’s easy to engage and disengage with your shooting hand thumb, and it’s positive enough to prevent accidental discharge.
