Lipsey’s Exclusive KRISS Vector Gen 3 Two-Tone
The KRISS Vector platform is no stranger to special editions, caliber options, or configuration updates, but for shooters who appreciate factory-applied aesthetics paired with the latest generation hardware, KRISS USA has something new on the table. The company has announced the release of the KRISS Vector Gen 3 Two-Tone variant, available exclusively through Lipsey’s. I have to admit, I think it looks quite good.
The new Two-Tone configuration pairs a black upper receiver with a Flat Dark Earth lower receiver, giving the Gen 3 Vector a distinct visual identity straight from the factory. While aftermarket Cerakote jobs have long been popular among Vector owners, this release offers a clean, uniform finish backed by KRISS and delivered as a complete, production-ready firearm.
The Two-Tone finish is being applied across multiple Gen 3 configurations, including the Vector CRB Carbine, SDP Pistol, and SBR models. On the shorter-barreled SDP and SBR variants, the aesthetic continues with an FDE 5.5-inch M-LOK Gen 3 handguard, tying the entire package together visually.
All models are available in 9×19, .45 ACP, and 10mm Auto, giving shooters flexibility across duty, range, and personal-defense-oriented setups. As part of the Gen 3 lineup, the Two-Tone models retain the current-generation updates that have defined the platform’s latest evolution.
Distribution for the Gen 3 Two-Tone Vector is handled exclusively by Lipsey’s, with units now shipping to authorized dealers nationwide.
Suggested retail pricing is set at $1,499.99 for the Vector SDP G3 with a 5.5-inch barrel, $1,699.99 for the Vector SBR G3, and $1,749.99 for the 16-inch Vector CRB G3.
What do you think? Which version is your favorite? For me, it’s still the full auto 10mm version I shot in a desert somewhere in Nevada.

hey Steve, we have an over-run of these FDE lowers - figure out something to do with them.
