PS90 vs. Kriss Vector .45

[Kelevra TAR-21]

Help me decide which one to buy. If you are going to do battle in an urban setting which one of these two civilian versions would you want

 

[indykid]

In submachinegun form, it would be a P90, the version our government will not allow us to keep and bear.

And now for a .45ACP versus 5.7x28 flame fest!!!

 

[iamaclone45]

Kriss Vector .45, simply on ammo availability.

 

[Gamez235]

I am looking to put people down. So I'll stick with the .45acp.. The 5.7x28 is pretty much a .22WMR. If I was going use a small caliber, I'd just take an M4 in 5.56

 

[Stainer]

Going with the kriss for the same above reasons. If SHTF 5.7 is going to be hard to find plus 45 makes a bigger hole. I think both are amazing but I go for the Kriss

 

[MoparMan]

Definately the Kriss

 

[revsaxon]

Ive wanted to buy and SBR a P90 for a long time now.. just never had the funds to do it. So my vote is for that.

.45 is out of a carbine is going to be a real manstopper. But 5.7 ammo is easy to find locally and if you can afford the rifle you can afford to have some on hand. I like the idea of 50 rounds in the gun and the ability to carry a lot of rounds in a relatively light package. My vote goes to the PS90.

 

[Gamez235]

I don't see it.. The 5.7 is pushing a 40gr bullet at about 2600 fps... The 5.56 pushed a 55gr at 2900 fps.... Unless you're using the V-Max both of them will zip right through your target just as troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have been doing for years now, and now find themselves looking for a more potent round. The 5.7 isn't the wonder round it is made out to be.

For CQB from personal real world experience. I would take the .45 Kriss if I were clearing rooms... I wouldn't even give the PS-90 a thought if I had an M4 available.

Apples vs. Oranges

Ford Lightning or Ford Mustang??? WTF??

 

[shadow6492]

I'd say the PS90 with the right ammo SS198, SS192, SS190, or some Elite ammo!With the FiveSeven on the side!

 

[glocktoys]

hay i say a kriss and a glock 21. heck if i ever sell off some of my stuff i want a kriss sbr

 

[MilitaryArms]

I own both, and the Kriss is completely unreliable. They work for a couple magazines, then once they get even a little dirty they start to malfunction. If you want reliable, get the PS90.

Here's my Kriss:

Dude, your PS90 has tumor!!!

 

[BearArms]

I voted Ps90 because 50rd mags are the bees knees.

 

[John Galt]

Kriss is French for piece of s***! I had one once and had every problem you could imagine with it the first day out. I took it back to Elmore's (where I bought it) and they could not have been nicer to deal with. If you can't trust them on the range, I definately wouldn't trust it with my life.

 

[Gamez235]

Thats weird cause our sample sbr and machine gun are very reliable for us. Ours might get a bit finicky after about 1000 rounds in full auto with the can on it, but it's been a great gun. I don't think we had single malfunction with it at NFA or the 2-3 other demo's it's been too. Our MP5 however needed cleaned about 1/2 way through the day.

 

[MilitaryArms]

That's odd, I've yet to meet another Kriss owner that had such good luck with theirs. Blythes Sports, where I bought mine, will tell you all the problems they've had with them. They are/were authorized dealers but you won't see a single Kriss in their showroom now days. Nothing but problems.

I've had the bolt replaced in mine... still no luck. I've had the ejector replaced... still no luck.
