Having a rough week? Fear not. For on this humpday, Gun Porn 101 is going to tickle your trigger finger like it’s getting tongued by Kate Beckinsale in tight black pvc…with loaded barrel to your temple…the way you like it, you sick dirty bastard.
For today’s gun play, we’re going to start with a little educational foreplay to fully comprehend how wickedly awesome the TDI KRISS Vector SMG .45 ACP is compared to the rest of the competition.
The first thing to note is that most sub-machine guns (SMG) fire a 9mm bullet (pictured on the left). It’s pretty much the common standard for your run-of-the-mill handgun. On the other hand, the KRISS packs a .45 ACP round (pictured on the right) which is a bigger bullet. This means more stopping power that is more effective at downing your target.
But there are two drawbacks in using a bigger bullet like the .45 ACP for a fully automatic weapon. Firstly, there’s a much stronger recoil that makes that kick back of momentum you feel when firing a gun. Secondly, it dramatically increases your muzzle climb, which is basically what happens when the barrel of the gun moves upwards when firing in fully automatic mode. Both of these are very important varaibles for something called ‘accuracy’ or ‘killing every mother fucker in sight.’
To compensate for this, TDI has completely revolutionized the standard physics of firearm mechanics. By manipulating the action to release in a downward angle rather than the traditional horizontal configuration, the KRISS re-vectors the backward momentum. In turn, this reduces the recoil by 50% and the muzzle climb up to 95% against such SMG’s like the HK MP5 that use the smaller 9mm ammo.
By minimazing the amount of moving parts and utilizing construction materials out of advanced metal and aerospace polymer components, the KRISS boasts a durable reliability that could be compared to an AK-47.
One of the coolest additions for the KRISS has got to be the inclusion of an magazine cartridge that is interchangeable with a Glock 21 with a 17 round extention for up to a 30 round capacity. But with a firing rate of 800-1000 rounds-per-minute, you might need to get more than just one.

is it your way to export democracy, right?
No, here at Unfinished Man we only export blog posts, we don’t sell or export weapons and we don’t believe in democracy, we’re actually a dictatorship.
Wow, the barrel on this is so, very, very tiny compared to how large it is. With the stock extended this thing is comparable in size to small assault rifles like the IMI Tavor or the galil micro, but it has a barrel length that looks more like that of a handgun.
The muzzle climb reducing mechanism is interesting, however. It reminds me a bit of the Jati-matic, which used a similar mechanism.
this is a cool looking SMG!
