Ok I gotta ask what that crazy thing on the end of the barrel is? It makes it look like a suction cup dart gun.

wondering this myself.

Pretty wild looking little pistol.
I'll have to go along with the .22 mag being loud from a pistol.
I have an AMT Automag with a 3 5/8" barrel, that will make you deaf if not wearing hearing protection.

Very, very cool. .22 Mag is the bantam-weight champion. Who needs the 5.7? That baby with some of Remington or Hornady's V-Max is darn near the same thing.

Rep stated that they are only "letting them out in very small numbers". When I asked why, she gave me he usual "dunno" response.

Here is a good answer.

I've been watching this pistol for some time, and hope to own one in the near future. While it is certainly an amazing gun at a great price, It's no five seven. Below is a comparison of the 22mag Kel Tec vs 5.7x28 FN. For those that don't want to read the article it basically says the 22mag performs better in a longer rifle barrel, where the 5.7 is optimised for a shorter pistol barrel and produces over twice the energy of the 22mag when fired from a pistol.

Still the Kel Tec is going to be alot cheaper to buy and to feed, and alot easier to find ammo for.

Thanks for the review and pictures. I will have to keep my eyes open for one of those.

Has anyone heard if they are going to make one with a threaded barrell?

 

[Old Fart]

Just a heads up.

For those wanting one Jack down at BDC Gunroom has a couple.
