Kriss’ V Subgun: The Executive Protector
A more lethal, compact, and controllable firepower solution.
The tactical usefulness of the submachine gun has kept it in use for nearly a hundred years, but until now the tradeoffs for LE and military operators have included no optimal choices. The compact size and less recoil of pistol-caliber ammunition has allowed for great fire capacity in submachine guns, but minor calibers trade less recoil for less lethality. Major calibers trade more lethality for more recoil and more cumbersome weight.
What S.W.A.T. and SpecOps have needed but never had, was a submachine gun in a major caliber, which is at once compact and controllable. The operator’s search for a weapon that is light, compact, controllable and lethal may have ended with the innovative KRISS Super V system, developed by TDI. During a recent demonstration at Blackwater’s training facility, TDI reps described the KRISS Super V system and unveiled a commercial version, as well as a plastic-molded mock-up of a carbine due for a 2008 introduction. Named after the Indonesian fighting knife, the KRISS is aimed at replacing the aging MP5 as well as other submachine guns in the hands of military and LE operators, with a more lethal round in a more controllable envelope.
