    Kriss upgrade/replacement parts

    Just wondering if it's possible to buy parts (in particular the mainspring) for the vector? I got an RMA number for mine, but just don't feel comfortable shipping a $2000 rifle to a company I don't know. I would rather just try and fix it myself. Kriss USA says they won't ship parts to Canada...

    It's a POS? I was thinking about buying one.
    Listen, and understand. That Liberal is out there. It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse- only fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until your guns are gone.

    Not a POS - just if you want parts or need service - not going to happen in any quick time period (except the once apparently). I love mine.

    Mine was just a bad case of getting it serviced. The fire control group went on it, and the bolt exploded. Once I finally got it back I fired another 100rds through it, it worked, then sold it. Neat carbine, interested in the GEN2 model in 9mm. If it ever makes it here....

    get parts shipped to a border store and pick up. if its only a spring then it shouldn't be a problem bringing it back across.

    Probably off topic to discuss sending it elsewhere in this sub forum.

    Kriss USA will do the work, I just have to export it to the US. So looking at getting the forms from the ATF. Will ship it to Kriss, then have them ship it to the border and pick up I guess. Either that or I'll be visiting my buddy in Ohio lol.


    They're not ####, but definitely service is an issue if you happen to get a lemon-y one.
