My first experience with a KelTec pistol was also the first firearm I immediately traded in on something better. That said, KelTec acquired Magnum Research. My wife had a special build similar to a Ruger 10/22 in 17M2 with a fine picatinny rail integral to the receiver and carbon fiber tension barrel. 17M2 was getting hard to find and KelTec didn't want to continue that caliber. At their expense, I sent the rifle to their facility and they converted it to the 22LR carbon fiber tension barrel and correct weight bolt assembly for 22LR vs 17M2. It was even wrapped in a good quality shipping case on return. Ruger level customer service.

The lower image matches our rifles including the one converted to 22LR. Mine was already 22LR.

(Based on what I’m seeing online, it may have been Kahr rather than Kel-Tec that acquired Magnum Research... ;>)

Kahr Arms Purchases Magnum Research

Correct. Kahr deserves the praise for the quality customer service. I do own 2 KelTec products today. The Sub2000 9mm and the 22WMR pistol. The pistol is Ok if you don't fill the magazine to capacity. The Sub2000 is a decent backpacking "rifle". A 9mm bore snake covers most of the maintenance.

Saw somewhere recently a vedio from Ukraine of the army using one of those. Was in the market for one but guess that will have to wait.

I can carry my Keltec SUB 2000 and 4 , 33 round mags in my computer case and very often do.

And you live in Tennessee, an American State.

I, on the other hand, live in Amerika.

Kind of amazing that the Patron State of Shooting Stuff, has some of the most relaxed fire arms laws in the nation and one of the lowest murder and violent crime rates to match.

You misspelled "logical".
