Solid External Construction

Overall, the external construction of this airsoft gun is superb. It is constructed of an extremely high quality polymer, that gives it the heft and feel of its real steel counterpart, which is also constructed with a polymer receiver. WE Tech has been in the airsoft industries for quite a while and they have developed a strong reputation of producing high quality external bodies for their gas blow back airsoft guns.

Removable Side Rails.

The front end of the gun features two removable metal 1913 Picatinny (one on the right and one on the left). This is a nice option if you want to shave some weight off your gun and while also slimming it down. Additionally, the gun comes with a monolithic upper rail, allowing you to place an optic on the gun with ease. There is also a bottom rail segment for further attachments.

Upon arrival, this gun comes with one forty four round magazine, a speed loader, and an extra threaded muzzle adapter. The included magazine is sturdy, and is large enough to fill enough gas to empty the magazine on fully automatic fire.

Due to the full metal construction of the bolt carrier group, this gun features an amazingly concussive recoil when shooting. However, it gets even better. On fully automatic fire, this gun spits out BBs and an amazing rate of fire, great for CQB engagements.

KWA KRISS Vector – Why the Hype?

The KRISS Vector by KWA was a much anticipated gas airsoft gun for multiple reasons. The TDI Vector was featured in both movies and video games including Total Recall, Resident Evil: Retribution, Call of Duty and Army of Two. It’s high tech and futuristic look garnered the attention of many viewers and players alike. However, aside from these facts, the main aspect of this sub machine gun that makes it a unique specimen from the rest of its comrades is it’s blowback design.

Originally designed by Renaud Kerbart, the KRISS system allows the bolt and slider to rotate off-axis behind the magazine. When firing an actual bullet, this results in heavily dampened recoil. The video below depicts this cycling mechanism in action.


This unique action, in addition to the barrel being in line with the shooter’s shoulder and hand makes the KRISS Vector’s recoil and muzzle climb extremely reduced. Minimizing the recoil and muzzle climb means that the gun is capable of firing a .45 ACP with the recoil of a .40 S&W or 9mm.

What does this have to do with airsoft you ask? Well, the answer is that KWA recreated the KRISS system faithfully. The KRISS Vector by KWA features the same bolt and slider rotation system as its real steel counterpart. This means that although this is a gas blow back sub-machine gun, there’s is a minimal amount of recoil.

2. Bolt Catch/Release
3. Selector Switch
4. Safety Lever
5. Folding Stock

This KWA gas gun features everything you might expect from a high grade training weapon including a functioning bolt catch, bolt release, and a high grade polymer body. In addition to that, KWA also included a “double tap” two round burst, firing two shots near instantly.

With all the features listed, it is no wonder that the KRISS Vector was such an anticipated release. Was the hype justified? I’d think so, as this gun faithfully recreates the KRISS Vector, unique cycling system and everything, along with all the quality one might expect from KWA.
