KRISS-TDI To Unveil New Technology, New Products At Shot Show 2008

KRISS-TDI TO UNVEIL NEW TECHNOLOGY,
NEW PRODUCTS AT SHOT SHOW 2008

Company to Showcase Revolutionary Operating System
At Booth and Through Weekend-Long Special Events

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA (January 2) - Virginia Beach-based firearms manufacturer KRISS-TDI will unveil its inaugural line of commercial firearms incorporating the revolutionary KRISS® Super VTM patented technology at the National Shooting Sports Foundation's (Could shorten to NSSF) annual SHOT SHOW, February 2-5, 2008 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Hailed as one of the most significant advances in automatic weapons operating systems design in more than 120 years, the KRISS Super V System incorporates a unique design that significantly reduces felt recoil and muzzle climb traditionally associated with standard automatic weapon operating systems. This technology - integrated into the company's first two products - will be on display at Booth #21102 in the Gold Hall as well as at a trio of special events hosted by KRISS-TDI.

Incorporated into the KRISS Super V automatic Vector SMGTM and semi-automatic Vector CRB/SOTM, The KRISS System combines a lighter frame with fewer moving parts into a design that re-directs gas energy down and away from the traditional "straight-line" design that typically produces kickback and muzzle climb, thus dramatically enhancing the operator's ability to put more rounds on-target more often.

After six years of R&D, the KRISS Super V operating system has generated unprecedented industry accolades in 2007, with their first products set to deliver in first quarter 2008. Both the weapons and the technology were featured on Discovery Channel's Future Weapons program, hailed as the "Best SMG Ever" by Guns and Weapons Magazine, was featured on the front cover of Shooting Illustrated (January 2008), and listed as one of the Top 100 Innovations of 2007 by Popular Science Magazine.

This was brought up a while back. I agree with greentips. The product is an answer to a question that has never been asked. Limited capacity and still the same footprint as an MP5K or mini Uzi. In the day where 10" 5.56mm carbines are the fast becoming the standard, I think the sub-gun is on its way out.

Oooh, this is the one that "Baldo the Wonder Seal" was boasting about.


The one where the person firing the UMP45 (with its extravagant recoil :rolleyes:) looked like they were firing a .50 BMG subgun, and the Colt 1911 looked like it was shooting off .44 magnums :jerkit:

The extra parts it requires to move the bolt action of linear to rotating downward would introduce some interesting reliability issues IMHO.


K.I.S.S. ... the UMP45 with a blowback bolt is more than adequate, and reliable enough, and controllable enough.... If they wanted to introduce another carbine, sure thats fine, but dont do it by crapping on other MFG's equiptment.
 
That's a gun? Damn, they should have done a little more refining......
