GHK was founded in 2008 and is currently located in Taiwan. For the past few years, they have been creating high quality high performance airsoft guns and accessories. The GHK G5 is another great addition to their lineup. The upper and lower assembly are manufactured out of a DuPont Polymer Construction.

The durability is at its finest point while decreasing the overall weight compared to a full metal rifle.

The included lower and side rails allows for multiple accessories to adapt to different environments. The internal mechanisms are designed of a high quality metal for the utmost durability and longevity of the product. The ambidextrous charging handle, fire selector, and magazine release makes this gun ideal for both left and right handed shooters. With the included buffer tube stock adapter, the operator has the opportunity for adding a retractable stock for more comfort and maneuverability. This is an ideal airsoft gun for those looking for a unique and compact platform.

KWA KRISS Vector – Why the Hype?

September 6, 2013

The KRISS Vector by KWA was a much anticipated gas airsoft gun for multiple reasons. The TDI Vector was featured in both movies and video games including Total Recall, Resident Evil: Retribution, Call of Duty and Army of Two. It’s high tech and futuristic look garnered the attention of many viewers and players alike. However, aside from these facts, the main aspect of this sub machine gun that makes it a unique specimen from the rest of its comrades is it’s blowback design.

Originally designed by Renaud Kerbart, the KRISS system allows the bolt and slider to rotate off-axis behind the magazine. When firing an actual bullet, this results in heavily dampened recoil. The video below depicts this cycling mechanism in action.

This unique action, in addition to the barrel being in line with the shooter’s shoulder and hand makes the KRISS Vector’s recoil and muzzle climb extremely reduced. Minimizing the recoil and muzzle climb means that the gun is capable of firing a .45 ACP with the recoil of a .40 S&W or 9mm.

What does this have to do with airsoft you ask? Well, the answer is that KWA recreated the KRISS system faithfully. The KRISS Vector by KWA features the same bolt and slider rotation system as its real steel counterpart. This means that although this is a gas blow back sub-machine gun, there’s is a minimal amount of recoil.

This KWA gas gun features everything you might expect from a high grade training weapon including a functioning bolt catch, bolt release, and a high grade polymer body. In addition to that, KWA also included a “double tap” two round burst, firing two shots near instantly.

With all the features listed, it is no wonder that the KRISS Vector was such an anticipated release. Was the hype justified? I’d think so, as this gun faithfully recreates the KRISS Vector, unique cycling system and everything, along with all the quality one might expect from KWA.
