SOLID FIREARM

It’s a fantastic little gun. I love shooting it.

I write this as a career Marine, lifelong hunter, outdoorsman, and a master firearms instructor. The first couple runs of this gun left much to be desired, with constant failures to feed and eject properly. Clearly Kel-Tec should have field tested it further before beginning mass production. However, when I bought mine, most of these problems had been sorted out. I have only one complaint with this weapon, and that is the location of the magazine release, which is at the bottom rear of the grip and very exposed. I lost a mag due to this when I was wearing a mil-surplus tanker holster. But other than that, my gun has run like a champ. My wife has one too, and she reports the same. Both guns shoot whatever type of 22WMR ammo we can find to put in it. This includes light weight Speer Gold Dot, CCI Max V, heavier Winchester and Browning hollow points, and the cheap Armscor ammo. No failures of any type. I carry this gun in a newer enclosed chest rig when riding my snowmobile, and have never had another issue with a lost or even a loose mag. It's tough to beat thirty rounds of high velocity ammo in such light package. The fiber optic sights are great, and offer you excellent visibility and contrast in low light. Just take some superglue to them as a precaution. I do this to any gun with fiber sights. The rail on this gun fits any light I've put on it. The trigger pull is consistent. The safety is a Walther/Beretta style safety and is intuitive. The mags can be difficult to load over 20, and that takes some practice because of the unique stacking method for the rimmed cartridges. I see no reason to keep more than 20 rounds in them anyway, but when I'm going out for prolonged periods, I load them to capacity. Firepower. Reliability. Very low recoil. Modest weight. All equals an excellent survivor's gun. BTW, if you get one that doesn't run, send it back and they'll fix or replace it.
