What’s your verdict on the little Kel-Tech carbine? The gun shop around the corner from me had one in .40 S&W ($339) yesterday and I am tempted to get it. I read quite a bit about them last night and most people seem pleased. I don’t need another carbine, but I like the idea of having a folding rifle that will fit in a backpack, tackle box, or the lockbox under the seat of my truck. Plus, it would give me an excuse to get a Glock 22.

Well, my son bought one and he goes on a regular basis and shoots. I personally haven’t used on, but so far my sons opinion has been rather good.

I’m thinking of trading in my clip shotgun for this as I think my wife can handle this better....if she needs to.

I like it. Only shot it once at the range on a very windy day. Out of the box, hit the paper every time at 50 yards.

My Wife has a Glock 19 (9mm) so that’s the configuration I got. Waited 6 weeks to get it.

Also got some of the 33 round mags from Glock.

It's a nice little carbine. It is easy to use, quite accurate out to about 150 yards, and packs more punch than a pistol because of the longer barrel. As you note, it is easy to store and transport in a backpack or small bag and is very light weight. The price is right, as well.

I highly recommend it.
