⚠ Gen 1 owners: Gen 1 Vector requires a Gen 2 trigger pack — KRISS Vector Fire Control Group (Semi) — before this FRT can be installed.
Overview
A stainless steel, 2-position drop-in Forced Reset Trigger for the Kriss Vector. This upgrade enhances firing performance to deliver rapid cycling as intended by the original designers. It is a forced reset device and not a full-auto conversion. Proper operation requires controlled trigger input.
This is an aftermarket component. The user assumes all liability for damage or injury.
Excessive lubrication is required during initial use.
This is not a permanent modification — parts will wear and require replacement over time.
Warranty replacements may be provided upon approval.
Ensure firearm is properly broken in before installation.
Break-In & Pre-Installation
The Kriss Vector platform requires a break-in period of approximately 350+ rounds and may exhibit issues prior to modification. Before installing this FRT, perform the following:
Polish bolt lugs (ears) to a smooth finish
Polish the FRT after fitting
Polish action rail guides
Thoroughly clean the firearm to ensure smooth cycling
Installation Steps
Separate the lower and upper receiver halves.
Remove optics or iron sights.
Remove the top rail (roll pin and Allen screw for Gen 1).
Slide off the top rail from stock to muzzle.
Remove fire control group screws and extract the assembly.
Remove trigger and disconnect.
Install the FRT and perform initial test fit.
Function check manually for any hangups.
Remove and polish any contact points causing resistance.
Reinstall and function check again.
Manually actuate hammer and trigger to confirm reset.
Repeat polishing if necessary.
Reassemble firearm and apply lubrication (high-temp grease or ATF4 recommended).
Function check: After assembly, manually cycle the action and pull the trigger to confirm reset pressure and smooth operation. If resistance is present, repeat polishing and cleaning steps.
Test Fire Procedure
Load 1 round — verify bolt locks back.
Load 2 rounds — test cycling.
Load 3 rounds — confirm reliability.
Full magazine — verify full performance.
If issues occur during testing, return to polishing, lubrication, and inspection steps.
Support
If you experience issues, contact customer service before attempting advanced troubleshooting procedures.
Fitment variations may cause hangups. Polishing can be done manually or with tools, including tumbling if necessary. High-temp grease or ATF4 lubrication is recommended throughout.
I ordered this thinking I would beat the next stupid ban. So the trigger arrived very fast, just a few days, and I didn't pay for the extra shipping charge for getting it faster. Wasn't needed in my case. This was so easy to install a blind person could do it. Then I took it to the range and I expected it not to work like it was described. OMG did my face light up! Burned up two magazines in less than 10 seconds I think. And is still safe, and it retains the semi auto, or one shot per pull capability. I'm buying more for my other AR's now.

It wasn't exactly what I was expecting but I gave it a try. The installation video sucks because I couldn't see what he was doing but I ended up getting it. You have to learn how to run it as there's a little bit of a trick to it but once you do that it's fun to use.
First time using the Disruptor drop-in trigger I couldn't get it to work, even after swapping in an H2 buffer. This H3 heavy-duty spring combo finally did the trick. Rifle is an older S&W Sport II. Suppressor is SilencerCo Velos 556. Very happy with the result and looking forward to adding Disruptor FRT and this buffer/spring to at least two more rifles.
Had some initial issues with the trigger but customer service was easy to get ahold of and took care of me. Shipping was super fast, and everything is working as intended now. I wouldn’t think twice about ordering from them again.

Hey Joel,
This is GREAT to hear, and glad it was super easy
The FRT dropped right in and ran wonderfully! It cycled 22 rounds in roughly 2 seconds.
My son's first experience firing anything like this and he absolutely loved it.
I highly recommend this product for your TX22.
Safe, Semi, FRT. Until you experience it, you just don’t know what it’s like. But once you do know, you’ll want more. An addiction that is backed by the Constitution. 2A for LIFE.
Worked amazingly. Was everything I hoped it would be. Would definitely recommend these guys to anyone looking to purchase firearms accessories. Had a couple small order issues in the past and they were handled very quickly and expertly. As a result I try to give them as much of my business as possible.
Super easy to install, runs smooth and without failure in a completely stock $500 American tactical AR, there are plenty of videos showing how to install it. Would and am buying this trigger kit again, and pairing it with a lighter spring kit, there isn’t any weird quirks with it, I simply installed it with some oil and my factory pins and springs and it worked without polishing or any other modifications. Super happy with it!

Straight drop in, no modifications. Ran great no issues yet
Functioned fantastically. I absolutely recommend a heavier buffer. I have a Ruger AR lower and it fit perfectly. Really really enjoys the metal mags. Had loading issues, disappeared when I swapped to metal mags. Selector switch works slightly better than original. I used a extra spring I had laying around and got an H3 buffer. Make sure you have the full auto BCG or this product will not function.
I ended up needing something slightly lighter to run the G Lever FRS, but the H2.5 is probably a good option for a suppressed build with more back pressure
Had to do a minor tweak to tappet wire but other than that it was a drop in kit. Seems to be made of quality steel. We all are now having great fun with it.
My first ARC-Fire ran like a champ! I never had a hiccup or problem, and everyone on the range stared like I was a criminal...🤣 It was the V1, and man I was happy. Then all of a sudden...
I watched a video that showcased the ARC-Fire V2, with a 0-45°-90° ambi selector, and I had to have one. After all, it was going in my HK MR556 A4, and it has the markings on the lower for a 0°-45° selector, and I, of course, wanted it to match. So I bought one...
While visiting AS Designs website, I noticed they sold HK style selector levers for their ARC-Fire V2. So I bought some...
You CANNOT go wrong with this company! Their products are, in my and many others opinion, the best FRT on the market today! Just go to YouTube and pull up a 'Juicy Media' video, and he demonstrates a bunch of different brands of FRT and explains the pros/cons of the others, and explains why he prefers AS Designs!
5 MF'ing ☆'s~!!!
This enhanced semi-auto trigger is amazing the install was easy the function is great the only thing would be you need a t10 tool of your own to hold the other side. But overall 10/10 this mad my cheap Anderson ar turn heads!!!
