Who says 22's can't be cool?

Looks like a lot of the people commenting are a little afraid to step outside of their comfort zone, thats okay theres plenty of the same old rifles out there for you guys. This thing looks awesome, hope you enjoy it. 22s are some of my favorite rifles to shoot.
Listen, I can guarantee that if the haters actually shot this firearm they would rather enjoy it. Runs perfect no issues, easy to clean quick breakdown(just over 600rds through mine and have not cleaned it). Accuracy tests consists of pop cans at 50 yards and 25 yard pistol slow fire targets, all ten rounds in fairly rapid succession all hit centre on paper target and 10 for 10 on nailed cans. No optics just irons and I'm a decent shot but not great. 10rd mags sucks but I'm happy with the Kriss I never wanted but ended up with. Kinda want to put a optic on it just to see what it can't do any recommendations for .22, I was thinking 1x4 varible. Big bonus it sits nice on a bench with that big flat bottom.

The original KRISS Vector concept was for a submachine gun meant for specialized MIL/LE use — designed with the goal of allowing the user to better stay on target in full-auto mode, as compared to existing submachine guns in that role like the HK MP5.
Everything that people seem to dislike aesthetically is there for a functional reason on the original gun — to reduce recoil and muzzle rise — for example, the bore axis is directly in line with the strong hand, and the recess behind the magwell reduces recoil by housing an inertia block that articulates with the bolt — so instead of the blowback pushing the bolt into a buffer tube, it curves it in an arc slightly downward into the recess, pulled by the inertia block.
Those design elements were meant for full-auto mode — they become less important (although still useful) with the semi-auto, and even less so (or meaningless) with this rimfire — which abandons the inertia block altogether.
So it’s understandable that folks looking at this strictly as a .22lr would dismiss the design as having what the car guys refer to as “boy racer” looks. But at least it’s descended from a well-regarded “form follows function” submachine gun.
Here’s what’s going on in that space behind the magwell:

I have a Vector PCC in 9mm and it is a fantastic gun to shoot, except for the weight. Almost no recoil at all thanks to the vectoring system. Not sure why it would be the same design on a .22 since there is no recoil to mitigate by design anyway.
As for ###y, not ###y...as with everything else, it's in the eye of the beholder. There is really no right/wrong on how a gun looks. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. No different than cars...and wives...

Nah... Just people with a different upbringing who spend too much time on the Internet...

While not my cup of tea (I don't really like tea, now that I think of it)

Nope, I want the barrel shrouded version. Just like in the OP #1 post.

I can't get past the once a 45 subgun turned into a rimfire magpul monster kind of turns me off.
At least the G36 copy in rimfire and that Beretta (model escapes me) don't appear unruly to the eye because it's a copy of a 5.56mm rifle but in 22 LR.
Just my weird opinion.
But it's your money so......
