WANT

I'll let the article speak for itself.

I like .22WMR. This gun? YES. Keltec, PLEASE sell it at the stated price point, or below!

Would buy. Preferably not for $400, but there's always used.

Looks like it was made out of LEGOs, though.

It's KELTEC, what do you expect it to look like?

Their pocket pistols look decent, the fixed-stock SU-16 would look pretty good without a front sight, but everything else is goofy as hell.

Considering the features and caliber (as well as the bonus of a 30 round magazine), this pistol should come in at a retail price far below $415. We're talking KelTec, not Smith and Wesson.

So many good guns wind up never leaving the factory because they can't get the idea that this economy will not support $400 .22 mag pistols made of plastic. May as well get a Taurus or Ruger Single 6 Stainless for that money.

Looks like a Five.seveN raped the Hk pistols in 4.6 that never got off the ground. I want.

They actually took the concept for a high-capacity .22 Magnum pistol from the Grendel. They might make a carbine version, too!

I like me some Kel Tec carbine!

I sure hope they make one. If they keep the doublestack, that'll be a damn near 100 round magazine for the size of a 30-round STANAG. If they make them use the same magazines as the pistol, it'll be FUKIN WIN!

Sweet!

Isn't the .22 Magnum somewhat similar to the 5.7? Or was that another cartridge.

Either way, a 30-round magazine in a pistol is epic.

Other way around. 5.7 is close to .22WMR. Though it has a bit more power out of a pistol-length barrel, they are damn close to exactly the same out of a carbine barrel. .22WMR will cut right through a soft Level IV vest out of a carbine barrel (small and very fast--Level IV is for larger and slower, but high-energy rounds)

If 5.7 ≈ .22WMG, then .22WMG ≈ 5.7. There are no semantics involved, they are just both true.

I wonder if this'll become the new media "cop-killer" gun.

.22WMR is older. Hence, 5.7 is closer to it than the other way around. It could be said that 5.7 was modeled after it, but there are key differences like 5.7 being centerfire and necked down.

Not out of a pistol-length barrel. Only a carbine-length barrel (16"+, though that's just because that's the legal minimum--it could probably work at 14 or 12.)

Dude, in that size mag, use Beta C-mag tech and make a double double stack magazine.
