VFC KAC Licensed KS-3 V3 "EVO" GBBR

(CNC-Machined Steel Bolt Carrier Version)

Manufactured by Knights Armament Company, the KS series represents a highly evolved, modernized take on the legendary AR-based SR-16 platform. These rifles are built to handle the intense demands of modern combat engagements. The lineup gained significant international attention when the British Armed Forces officially adopted the 13.7-inch KS-1 variant as the L403A1 AIW in 2023. This strategic selection aimed to supplement the existing L85 and L119 series rifles currently fielded by elite military groups, including the Royal Marines and the British Army Ranger Regiment. Stepping into an even more compact role, the KS-3 features an 11.5-inch barrel paired with a highly efficient carbine-length gas system. This heavily reduced footprint makes the weapon incredibly easy to stow during tight vehicular transport and far less cumbersome to carry on extended foot patrols or close quarters operations. Because it boasts nearly universal compatibility with the rest of the KS lineup, operators frequently select the KS-3 as a dedicated secondary upper receiver to perfectly complement a longer KS-1 or KS-2. Alternatively, it serves brilliantly as a standalone primary weapon system for any shooter requiring a lightweight, exceptionally dependable, and highly maneuverable carbine.

Vega Force Company has expertly engineered this modern carbine by combining their proven V3 gas blowback architecture with the brand new EVO Next Generation AR Hop system. Fully licensed by Knights Armament Company, the receiver proudly displays authentic trademarks, featuring KS-3 engravings on the left side and SR-16 rollmarks on the right. The exterior boasts a precision machined aluminum construction highlighted by a distinctive KAC URX 6 M-LOK handguard and a continuous monolithic Picatinny top rail. This layout gives shooters infinite space to mount preferred optics, lasers, and grips. Up front, a Quick Detach Coupling flash hider sits ready to accept QDC or PRT style suppressors. The package also includes folding KAC iron sights and an ambidextrous QD end plate securely fastened to a six position buffer tube. A B5 Systems crane stock finishes the rear assembly, providing additional sling mounting points and a thick rubber pad to soak up recoil.

Standing out in a crowded market of AR platforms, this rifle delivers a truly ambidextrous lower receiver designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern combat operators. Left and right handed users enjoy mirrored access to the textured fire controls, magazine release, bolt catch, and charging handle. The KAC series 2 safety selector ensures seamless weapon manipulation from any shoulder transition. Because of this flawless ergonomic design, military units adopted the platform for active service after the year 2023. Today, it serves as the standard issue weapon for elite forces including the South Korean 707th Special Mission Group and specialized maritime units of the Korean Coast Guard.

At the mechanical core, an upgraded steel hammer set, reinforced fire control components, and a refined firing pin significantly boost long-term durability. The beating heart of this setup is a freshly designed precision-machined steel bolt carrier that makes routine maintenance effortless. Paired with a heavy high-speed steel buffer, the system generates a massive, deeply satisfying recoil impulse with every trigger pull. A curved trigger offers a remarkably crisp wall break and distinct reset across safe, semi-automatic, and fully automatic firing modes. Feeding this beast is the latest thirty-round VMAG V3 gas magazine. Built for maximum gas efficiency, the magazine features a built-in switch that lets you easily toggle between dry fire practice and standard last round bolt lock functionality.

The most significant technological leap lies in the newly developed steel-reinforced Top Down Center hop up mechanism. This robust unit not only improves structural longevity but also grants exceptional control over ballistics. You can dial in your exact trajectory by opening the upper receiver and adjusting the dial directly underneath the chamber. Alternatively, you can use the included Next Generation adjustment tool to make precise tweaks straight through the ejection port without ever needing to split the receivers apart. This ensures your carbine remains perfectly zeroed and field-ready during the most intense skirmishes.
