KRISS Vector Alpine, manufactured by Krytac, is an officially licensed replica of one of the more unusual submachine guns developed in recent years. The firearm utilizes a "Super V" system, which, in tandem with an unconventional delayed blowback system, is designed to reduce the perceived recoil and muzzle climb during the shooting.

The original, first-generation firearm was designed in 2006, and a rework was made in 2007. The second generation was announced during the 2011 SHOT Show in Las Vegas. The difference is in the lower receiver construction intended for more straightforward caliber conversions. It is done via takedown pins that allow a quick swap between 9x19mm, .40S&W, and .45 ACP receivers.
The Super V system allows the bolt and an inertia block to move down into a recess behind the magazine. This, in theory, redirects the energy downward rather than backward, thus minimizing the recoil and muzzle climb. Another trademark of this system is that the barrel is placed in an axis with the shooter's shoulder and hand, further reducing the recoil.

The "Alpine" model boasts a snow-white finish, a slightly elongated barrel, a CNC-machined handguard with a handstop, three Picatinny rails, and additional M-LOK slots for attaching dedicated equipment like grips, flashlights, and laser designators. The stock was also redesigned and is compatible with the AR-15 buffer tube system.

Like the original firearm, the replica's body, stock, and majority of external elements are injection-molded from high-quality fiber-reinforced polymers. The outer barrel, handguard, Picatinny rail segments, charging handle, and other minor elements are cast, molded, or CNC-machined from metal. Both receivers are attached to an aluminum skeleton frame and feature a two-split construction, allowing easy access to the product's internals.
The lower receiver is integrated with the magwell and mock recoil mitigating system found in the original firearm. The space provided by the latter one is used to hold the V2 custom gearbox.
The upper receiver is coupled with a fixed pistol grip holding the battery, an AR-15 buffer tube with a stock, and a single Picatinny rail.
The collapsible stock is comfortable to use. It is adjustable in length to accommodate different builds or user preferences. Ambidextrous QD slots allow attachment of carrying slings.

The CNC-machined handguard is coated in a non-reflective, matte finish, which is used to secure the element from scratches, field, and weather conditions. The handguard allows customization of the replica thanks to two Picatinny rails at the top and bottom and three M-LOK slots on the sides. This enables users to configure the Vector to their preferences and/or game requirements.
The elongated outer barrel holds the 165mm inner barrel and is outfitted with a 14mm CCW thread. A custom "bird-cage" flash hider is attached to the barrel.

The heart of the replica is a custom V2 gearbox generating around 360 FPS / 1.2J using the 0.20g BBs. The replica shoots in semi-automatic, burst, and full-automatic modes. The safety levers and selectors are placed on both sides of the body, making it a good choice for ambidextrous users.
While the shell is dedicated to this platform alone, most elements are compatible with the V2 standard. This makes the possible tuning and upgrading process more manageable. The utilized hop-up system is easily adjustable and helps stabilize the BB mid-air and increase accuracy.

Thanks to its compact size and optimal performance, KRISS Vector is a perfect choice for players looking for a replica for CQB, close- and mid-range engagements in the arenas or fields with a futuristic vibe and unusual looks.
