KRISS KARD

Small Arms And Sidearms

The KRISS KARD, for KRISS Automatic, Research and Development, is a prototype semi-automatic pistol developed by KRISS USA, formerly Transformational Defense Industries, chambered in .45 ACP. It scales down the Super V recoil-mitigation system used in the KRISS Vector carbine to reduce muzzle rise and recoil in a pistol-sized package, using a fixed barrel rather than a conventional tilting barrel and a distinctive T-shaped cocking handle in place of a traditional slide.
