I know, everybody says clip.
I don’t care if this guy served with General Patton. He is an idiot. Lots of idiots served in the military. John Kerry comes to mind.
My favorite part of the article is where Comrade Greene tells us to use the threat of force to scare an attacker. Welcome to Metro Atlanta, home of the illegal hispanic gangbanger, drug trader paradise and crime central. Waving a tire iron at a hopped up meth head and his homies kicking down your front door is just not going to do it Frank. But you know what will? A brand new Keltec PMR 30. The 30 is for the 30 round clip it holds. You keep your threat of force and I’ll hang on to my PMR 30 thank you very much. Jackwagon!!!
Ma’am, I like the way you think.

It’s a magazine, not a “clip.” And since it shoots .22’s, proper shot placement is essential. Here is another opinion of the Keltec PMR 30:
When would you arm yourself with a weapon that would require possibly dozens of hits to incapacitate an attacker? When you can score all those hits with a single pull of the trigger! I.E., with a shotgun.
.22 rimfires can be highly deadly against humwn-sized targets, but this lethality is typically caused (slowly) by blood loss. Mountain lion hunters love the .22 magnum for its ability to slowly bleed out these pelt animals without agitating them excessively. They usually just sit in their tree and bleed out.
This is not how you want to disable an attacker. Incapacitation by organ trauma and neurological shock (or extremely rapid catastrophic blood loss) is the way to end an attack quickly and defend your life.
Such incapacitation would typically require multiple hits from a gun like this. These projectiles, at this velocity, CAN cause instant incapacitation in the form of #4 buckshot pellets. One trigger pull equals 27 small hits. And usually equals nearly instant death.
But you’re kidding yourself if you think you’ll be able to put 30 quick successive hits into your aggressive target in a stressful situation. Even a bump-fired AK takes three or four seconds to empty 30 rounds into a hillside, good luck putting more than a handful of those into a target.
This gun might be a great plinker, but skip it for self defense in favor of something capable.
