VFC KAC SR16E3 Carbine MOD2 — the long rail, and the receiver every KS-1 build starts from. Licensed Knight’s Armament on the V3 gas system, running CO2.

Where the CQB is cut down for corners, the Carbine keeps the full-length handguard. More rail means somewhere to put a light, a laser and a hand stop without them all competing for the same three slots, and a longer sight radius if you shoot irons.

The handguard is fully licensed M-LOK with the KAC markings, matched by the receiver engraving. Two QD sling sockets are built in, one at the receiver and one at the rear of the handguard, so a two-point sling goes straight on. The stock has five positions and locks without play.

Internally it is VFC’s version 3: steel trigger, hammer and sear, a revised gas system that holds velocity steady, and backward compatibility with older VFC gas magazines. It is also the receiver most people buy when they intend to build a KS-1 or an L403A1, because the lower and the fire control group are what those builds keep.

Good to know before you buy

The figures VFC publish for this one are thinner than for the CQB. There is no barrel length, overall length, weight or velocity quoted against the Carbine, so those rows are blank rather than carried across from the short version. Ask us and we will measure one off the shelf for you.

If a KS-1 or L403A1 build is where you are heading, this is the sensible starting point. The receiver and fire control group carry over; the handguard, barrel and gas block are what you change.

Frequently asked questions

How much longer is it than the CQB?
No length figure is published for the Carbine, so we are not going to put a number on the difference. The CQB is quoted at 715mm collapsed; the Carbine is the full-length handguard version of the same rifle.

What does it chrono at?
No velocity figure is published for this configuration. It is a CO2 gas rifle, so expect it to read on the warm side and plan on a chrono check.

Why is this the KS-1 build base?
The lower receiver and the steel fire control group are the parts those builds reuse, and this rifle has both in the right specification.

Will my older VFC gas magazines fit?
VFC state the V3 system takes older-generation VFC GBB M4 magazines.

Can I take the flash hider off?
Yes, the muzzle is 14mm counter-clockwise, so a tracer or suppressor screws straight on.

⚠ A recognised defence is needed for this rifle. Supplied in its original finish, this is a realistic imitation firearm and we cannot despatch it without verifying a defence first. The ones we accept are UKARA, UKASA, Airsoft Verify, Airsoft Defence, SWAT Airsoft, BAC, the Sportsman Association and a SWAT Pass, along with membership of any physical airsoft site in the country. Regulars at our own site can be confirmed from our game records, and stage, film or television production is accepted. If none of that fits your circumstances, talk to us. The cart collects it before you pay.
