KWA Kriss Vector Owners Club

[west8832]

Hi. I am a KWA Vector user living in Korea.
I knew there was a vector forum in England today.
I signed up too late, but I'll beg you.
My English is not good because Korea is not an English speaking country. So you may be writing strange or rude things because you are writing using Google Translator. I want you to understand.

Far from Korea.

Howdy. Thought id post pics of my baby. Hopefully ill get to use it soon...

Paint jobs kinda half assed but does its thing tho.

Bought myself membership this week, SO VERY HAPPY!

Have been on the fence for years because I was torn between the utterly crap performance of anything I've ever owned by KWA and the pull of a GAS powered Vector.

Friggin love SMGs and GBB(R) guns, so this was always lusted after.

Read and watched a ton of media on these, tried out Krytacs (zero arousal) and though you only live once, and I'm so damn happy that it shoots so accurately out to 50M, that's all I ever want in a CQB gun.

This finish and controls are lovely and it's all rock solid, feel lucky to have found a boxed, one owner, unmodified example, and for this to be the first gun I don't feel needs upgrading, that's so refreshing. Chuffed!

Can't stop handling it ?

As soon as I'm back from working away I need to go CQB!

Is there anything I should be aware of with this that I've overlooked? Must do maintenance or 'keep an eye on'?

Keep the recoil buffer runners clean, first thing to break that’s irreplaceable will be the semi-auto sear.

The Krytac stock is more rigid, as it’s actually the RS Vector stock.

DO NOT run it on anything more powerful than green gas, it will destroy the nozzle. HPA will allow you to run it full auto or burst easily.

Almost all RS parts fit as a direct bolt on/in, except the receivers, trigger group and internal frame, they are slightly different

Otherwise, it’s a GBB SMG, look after it, you’ll be fine. 

 

[Davegolf]

Yeh I saw another thread you were explaining to a guy about the semi sear. Will have a look see.

Green is hot enough at 330fps so that's cool.

Thanks for that ?

Will need 2 more mags.

Whats the best functioning pouches for the long mags?

 

[Guest]

Rainbow8 have genuine KWA mags, but without trades. Don’t by any other makes, they’re all shite.

I don’t use pouches, so can’t help, but I would e pact Krytac pouches to work, mag size is identical.

Does it have a CQB valve in the bolt?

 

[Davegolf]

Oh yeh your the drum mag queen!

Havnt taken this down yet, is the bolt marked CQB?

Any experiences with torches? Love a strobe lol

THE best torch I’ve ever used is an Olight Valkyrie 2. 1200 lumens of goodness.

The integrated torches are meh, not my cup of tea.

The bolt is identical, it’s the flute valve inside. Standard one has three vanes, CQB valve is cylindrical, fat with no fins. You can see clearly through the gas inlet slot whether it’s fluted or not.

Airsoft Engenuity make 3D printed nozzles that you set the FPS on

 

[Davegolf]

I was hoping to run an integrated one, keeps everything clean, I really like the Klarus stuff, may have to machine an adapter.

So chuffed, my airsoft SMG dreams are complete!

IF you fit an intergrated torch DO NOT lose the original cap, or modify the torch holder under the cap. The cap is irreplaceable, the torch holder is hard to get hold of.

Take the very front screw out of the top rail to remove the cap 

 

[Davegolf]

No I wouldn't bastardise anything RDB rest easy!

Il machine a whole new lump to go in there ?

Hi All, 

need help please. I have a GBB KWA Kriss Vector, ive had it since ages now, cannot remember exectly when I got it but easily had it 4 years plus, issue ive got is a mate borrowed it this weekend to see if he likes airsoft and the gun seized up and the cylinder broke, the bolt carried looks find but the back of the cylinder is snapped now im having a nightmare of a time trying to find a replacement, any suggestions on where I can go to get on or another one for a different gun that would work that is a genuine KWA part?? also if there are any upgrade parts that would be good to replace on it?? 

thanks

Hi All,

need some help/advice please, I have a GBB KWA Kriss Vector and I've had it a few years now (can't remember when I got it but could search my emails for a date) but I'm pretty sure I've had it easily 4 years plus now the issue I have is that I stupidly leant it to my best friend so he could try out airsoft and see if he likes it, I wasn't there with him as I was working but I think he basically used full auto way to much and it caused the gun to seize and it looks like the cylinder is broke as the back bit of it is snapped sadly don't have any photos of it on my work PC. now my issue is the gun itself was a nightmare to get when it first came out and I struggled for ages, now it seams the parts for it are just as hard to find, I can't find a cylinder anywhere and ive even emailed KWA to see what they can do but no reply yet. now I don't know enough about it but is there an alternative cylinder I can use that KWA make for another GBB gun of there's or does anyone know of where I can get one?? are there any upgrade parts that are worth me buying for it as im so upset and don't want to lose the use of my gun. as a heads up I live in south wales in the UK if that helps 

thanks in advance

This is what you'll need if the nozzle is broken/jammed

thanks I did find that but my only issue with it is when looking at the "part" it obviously looks like a 3D printing part and I just don't trust it, I get the seller is saying its a "carbon Fibre" part but it just simply doesn't look like one to me and looks 3D printed and to me it doesn't look reliable and I just have a feeling if I got it, it would just break again and do more damage to the gun

Your correct it is 3d printed but it's also carbon fibre reinforced ? @rocketdogbert has tested it thoroughly and had no problems as far as I know 

 

[Davegolf]

I'm reliably informed these parts are made from a carbon composite by people who do aerospace carbon work so one would assume they're solid
