Re: Kriss Vector Barrel
I dont think that they are easily changed. I inquired about getting a short threaded barrel for one a while back and Kriss will change it for a fair price when you buy the barrel from them.

Re: Kriss Vector Barrel
from what i read they will convert it to a sbr for you and it keeps the warranty, but if you cut it down or replace it without them doing the work it kills the warranty

Neither threaded nor bolted on...it is machine pressed into a trunion as well as pinned. Given the nature of the beast, the design does not permit you to "swap" barrels like what you are suggesting you want to do in switching between a 16" and a short barrel. Essentially, you would have to drill out swage pins and press out the barrel pin and finally press the barrel out of the trunnion. It is fairly major machine work and I wouldn't suggest it. There is a dedicated Kriss forum out there someone with pics/vids of the Vector in all stages of assembly/disassembly and I believe that this topic has been thoroughly fleshed out over there in great detail.

Re: Kriss Vector Barrel
Better off to just bite the bullet and buy a SBR to start with. On a side note, dont you think that these guns look alot like this.

I can see the resemblance.
OP, I would definitely recommend going with the SBR. It is where this firearm shines. I love mine.
