Description
The KRISS Vector is one of the more distinctive builds out there, and the stock handguard leaves you wanting more room to mount gear. That's exactly what the MK1 Modular Rail solves. It's a bolt-on extension that fits directly over the barrel shroud of your Gen 2 and Gen 2.1 Vector CRB, giving you a rigid, accessory-friendly platform without messing up the gun's signature silhouette.
The rail is machined from aluminum alloy and milled down to shave weight while keeping the structure stiff enough to hold zero on optics and lights. KRISS shaped it to follow the form factor of the Vector's body, so once it's installed it reads more like a factory feature than an add-on. It carries a hard anodized finish that matches the tough, no-nonsense character of the rest of the rifle.
What the MK1 Modular Rail Brings to the Table
Female threading runs along the three o'clock, six o'clock, and nine o'clock surfaces, which is where the included Picatinny side rail kit mounts up. That side rail comes pre-installed on the handguard, and the kit ships with a 10-slot rail, a 7-slot rail, and the mounting screws you need. Owners who run this rail like the extra length for pushing a vertical grip or hand stop further forward and freeing up space for lights and lasers.
Fitment Notes Before You Buy
This one is built specifically for the 16-inch Gen II CRB, so double-check your model before ordering. It will not fit the Gen 1 Vector because of that gun's integrated flashlight mount, and Gen 1 owners will want to look at the MK9 or MK11 rail instead. Installation is straightforward with the four included M4x0.7 screws, though it's worth taking your time to line the holes up cleanly before torquing everything down.
If you've been wanting a cleaner way to hang gear off your Vector, this is the factory-correct route that keeps the whole package looking like it left the shop that way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the MK1 Modular Rail fit my Gen 1 Vector?
No, this rail is built for the Gen 2 and Gen 2.1 Vector CRB only. The Gen 1 Vector has an integrated flashlight mount that gets in the way, so it won't bolt on cleanly. If you're running a Gen 1, KRISS makes the MK9 and MK11 rails for that platform instead.
Does the KRISS Vector MK1 rail come with the Picatinny rails, or do I buy those separately?
The kit includes a 10-slot Picatinny rail plus a 7-slot side rail that ships pre-installed on the handguard, along with the mounting screws. So you get functional mounting surfaces right out of the box. Additional accessory rails for the other threaded positions are sold separately if you want to fill out all three.
Where can I mount accessories on this handguard extension?
There's female threading along the three o'clock, six o'clock, and nine o'clock surfaces for adding Picatinny sections. That gives you spots for lights, lasers, a vertical grip, or a hand stop. The extra length also lets you push those accessories further forward than the stock setup allows.
Is the MK1 Modular Rail hard to install?
It's a straightforward bolt-on job using the four included M4x0.7 screws, no gunsmith required. Take your time lining up the screw holes before you torque things down, as some owners note the holes benefit from a little patience to align. Once it's seated, it holds solid and looks like a factory part.
