Kriss Vector or a Carbine conversion?

I`ve had an itch for a Kriss Vector for a while, it would be the non restricted variant with the long shroud (I actually like the look of them) in 9mm as I plan to reload and I`d use it for plinking steel

The recoil reduction etc is part of the attraction (even though its not super important on a 9mm) for fast follow up shots

However I have just stumbled across a carbine conversion kit that would work with my P320 (IMI Kidon) so that got me thinking, I could essentially have a 9mm ultra compact carbine for pretty much a third of the price, from what I can tell that kit will work with a bunch of other pistols so it may well be compatible with other future purchases too

The IMI Kidon is the only kit I`ve came across that will work for my P320, (seems most are geared towards Glocks) - are there any others?

I realize that if I buy the carbine kit it won't be non restricted (but I already have the P320) and it won't have the recoil reduction of the Kriss Vector

Has anyone used these type of carbine kits? Anyone had the chance to compare them to a Kriss Vector?
 
I used to have a CAA Roni for my Glock 17 and I think it was a Hera arms kit for my 1911. Both of them allow you to hold your pistol much more steady allowing you to print groups about half the size of shooting the pistol alone.
They're kinda cool but I found that I never took the pistols out of them and the novelty of them wore off and I sold them. I now own a Kriss Vector and used to own an HK USC and a KelTek sub2000. Of the PCC's available to us I would say the HK was the nicest shooting and highest quality but they are getting hard to find and if it's been converted to non restricted it's expensive (and magazines are ridiculously expensive). My Vector is actually my second one, after selling my gen1 45acp I decided to buy another one last year and picked up another gen 1 (newest model with all the updates). They're pretty accurate and are cheap and fun to shoot. I haven't been using it much lately but I'll probably hang onto it anyway for when I'm in the mood for some cheap and quiet blasting in my back yard.
 
I don't think the recoil reduction is even necessary on the 9mm Vector.

I fired the .45 full auto short barrel in the US last month and you can see the difference between that and a .45 pistol but to be honest...

The weight of the Vector (compared to a pistol) does enough to tame the 9MM.

Hmmm, maybe I should wait and get the 10mm version as I plan to reload via a progressive......?

I`m guessing the recoil reduction would be a benefit it 10mm?

Anyone know approximate reloading costs for 9mm vs 10mm?
