Kel Tec Love..... How many of you

[FrommerStop]

No way I would spend a grand on a keltec. Now if they redesigned their SUB-2000 I would be interested.

The Ruger 57 is

MSRP:

$799.00

I would want to see what Biden does first and also I want to buy optics for what I already have first.

FN might have gotten the magazine right, but I would not trust KelTec to get it to feed reliably.

My thought is that makes 3 manufacturers producing 5.7 pistols, maybe we'll see more. If you could get this to feed reliably, it would be fun with a binary trigger and a sto... erm Brace.
Personally, I don't think the 5.7 is a round I'd want as a conceal/carry pistol, but as an SMG it would be amazing.

It is useful due to low recoil and with proper ammo will penetrate some types of body armor.

Looks like an AAA battery dispenser to some.

Thats just nutz looking. A carbine maybe, but wayyyy too big for a pistol. Unless it gas some kind of brace.

I expect it to show up in a lot of sci-fi shows in the future

Check trying to load the 5.7. The advice is that it is a most difficult case to reload. To start with it is lubricated case using a special lubrication.

Here's an interesting one that I haven't seen before. Looks like KelTec is getting into the 5.7 game. Smart move using FN P90 mags and building the gun around it.

KELTEC Announces the P50: A 50-round 5.7x28mm Pistol - The Truth About Guns

&#9664Previous Post Next Post▶ Some say the key to developing a new firearm is to start with a good, reliable magazine and then build a gun around it. In the case of KELTEC’s new P50, they’ve not only found a good magazine, but a very high-capacity one in the form of FN’s 50-round P90 mag […]

Yeah, I've heard it was a nightmare to reload and that the life of the brass was very short. Gel test wise, a good 9mm round performs better out of typical handgun length barrels, but the 5.7 is impressive at longer ranges for accuracy. 100 yards shots with inches of drop instead of feet

And there is this

What would be fun would be to set up a TT33 7.62x25 in 22 TCM and seat the bullet out further using a 6 inch barrel.

 

[Jevaughn]

yeah, the .22 TCM is an interesting round as well. Saw a video a while back with .22 TCM out of a bolt-action rifle, it was pretty impressive.
