Description
There is nothing else on the rack quite like a Vector, and this Gen 3 CRB in 10mm might be the most fun way to burn through a case of ammo. The party trick here is the Super V Recoil Mitigation System, a closed bolt delayed blowback design that sends the bolt mass down and back through channels in the frame instead of straight into your shoulder. With full-power 10mm loads, which are no joke out of a 16-inch barrel, that translates to a carbine that stays remarkably flat and lets you stack fast follow-up shots without fighting the muzzle. And with the extra barrel length squeezing every bit of velocity out of the cartridge, you get real thump on steel, hogs, or whatever else you point it at.
What Makes the Gen 3 Vector CRB Different
The third generation brought reworked upper and lower housings with better ergonomics, ambidextrous controls, and a reversible mag release. The new square barrel shroud carries M-LOK slots on the sides and bottom for lights and hand stops, and a full-length Picatinny top rail handles optics with flip-up irons already installed. The stock folds and telescopes for compact storage, the pistol grip swaps with any AR-15 pattern grip, and four pins get you into the gun for cleaning without tools. The 4140 chrome moly barrel wears a black nitride finish and comes threaded 9/16×24 for muzzle devices.
Glock Mags and a 33-Round Head Start
Feeding is handled by full-size Glock 10mm pattern magazines, so mags are easy to find and you may already own a stack of them. KRISS includes one of their 33-round extended magazines in the box, which is a serious amount of 10mm on tap before your first reload.
A Lipsey's Exclusive Two-Tone Build
This particular configuration is a Lipsey's exclusive that splits the difference between the standard black and FDE models, wearing a sharp Black and Flat Dark Earth two-tone setup you will not find in the regular KRISS catalog. Between the looks, the recoil system, and the caliber, this one draws a crowd at the range every single time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magazines does the KRISS Vector CRB G3 10mm use?
It feeds from full-size Glock 10mm pattern magazines, like the ones made for the Glock 20. One 33-round KRISS extended magazine comes in the box, and standard 15-round Glock mags run in it as well. That makes finding spare mags a whole lot easier than with a proprietary design.
How does the Super V recoil system work on the Vector?
Instead of the bolt driving straight back into your shoulder, the Vector's Super V system routes a low-mass slider down through channels in the frame at an angle. That downward movement counteracts muzzle rise, so even snappy 10mm loads feel flatter and quicker to control than you would expect. It is the main reason the Vector shoots unlike anything else in the pistol caliber carbine world.
Is the barrel on this Vector CRB threaded for a muzzle device?
Yes, the 16-inch barrel comes threaded 9/16×24 RH, which is the common pattern for 10mm and .40 caliber muzzle devices. You can add a brake, flash hider, or suppressor mount without any gunsmithing. The barrel itself is 4140 chrome moly with a durable black nitride finish.
What is different about this Black/FDE two-tone model?
This is a Lipsey's exclusive configuration that combines a black upper with Flat Dark Earth furniture, a combo you will not find in the standard KRISS lineup. Beyond the finish, it carries all the Gen 3 upgrades, including the M-LOK square shroud, ambidextrous controls, improved housings, and toolless four-pin disassembly.
