The Kris Vector .22lr
Just about every time I handle 22 that is dressed to look like something it is not I am generally let down. This is not the case with the Kriss 22. This is not just another blow back 22 in a clam shell held together with glue and hope.
As this is Kriss second kick at the can getting things into Canada, we should expect less issues. We have also been informed that they are looking at making one with a shorter BBL and a pinned stock in the future. Sadly no time line was provided. They have confirmed commercial production has started.
Although it does not use the same action type as its big brother, with the 22lr it is not needed. This has allowed for the possibility (in very early idea phase) of an adapter plate to allow for another mag to be stored in the rifle.
With the controls and feel being same as its bigger brother this will be for sure a good seller in Canada.

I wonder why they made it look so different from it's bigger brothers. a big thing about the Vector is the shroud...
Bulls Eye Sports was advertising the 6.5" barrel in black for $750 CAN and an alpine white 6.5" barrel for $775 CAN.
This Kriss will never make it into my safe, but I can see the appeal. Another few 22 bolt guns though=always welcome.

I can't wait. I hope they keep Glock mag compatability... with the new Glock 22 coming out.....
They're going with custom mags 10 and 30 rounds.
You hope they aren't compatible, in Canada
Otherwise, you're stuck with 10 rounders only like the 10/22, unlike the 30 rounders that will be available
Handgun mags are a no-no for rimfire
I was talking to Charlie, the Kriss USA gunsmith, and he confirmed that they are indeed trying to get them here in Canada. They sent one for approval by the RCMP late last year and are anticipating approval sometime in mid 2020. Hopefully.
Oh, and they use a proprietary magazine, so only 10 rounders for now, but they are working on a 30 round one as well.

Correct. It's just a simple 22lr rifle with a ###y exterior
