About this product

The VKTR VK-1 is an AR-style pistol chambered in 223 REM/5.56 NATO designed around VKTR’s low-profile short-stroke piston architecture. It pairs a 10.50 inch cold hammer-forged, threaded steel barrel with a 9.85 inch VKTR handguard and an SB Tactical SBA3 brace for compact handling. Controls are ambidextrous and the pistol ships with a Magpul K2 grip and one magazine. The firearm is finished in Cerakote Armor Black and built on an aluminum frame.
