Eh, there's a billion other .22 rifles I'd go for before a Kriss.

I guess you could make the argument that it's meant to supplement the other chamberings as a training rifle, but still.

The manufacturers must feel there's a glut of .22 ammo on the market or something, this is like the 3rd or 4th such announcement in the past few weeks.
 
Vector is a nice concept, but the 2 I have are ammo picky! Stay away from +p ammo. BTW if you reload you will loose cases because it destroys them on ejection! Too me they aren't worth the price. Mine are in 9mm and 45acp, both carbines.
 
That would be an expensive .22. The .22 Vector is just a waist of money, I don't see a need for its application. A rather large bulky gun like the Vector to only throw .22 rounds down range. Seems like overkill. Like TEXASforLIFE said they are pretty accurate, however there are plenty of accurate .22 rifles on the market already that are not as bulky or expensive. Such as the Ruger 10-22, and the Smith & Wesson AR-22.

I would think about the Savage A22, $300 or so!
