Re: Anyone try out the Kel Tec PMR 30.
There will probably be one at the gunshow in 2 weeks, several dealers i talked to at the last supposedly one had them on the way. Id really like to have one myself, but dont want to stock yet another caliber.

There was one at the show in Philadelphia a couple of weeks ago but it was marked "Not For Sale". It was a nice looking gun and had a pretty good feel to it but I'm like Slng, I'm maxed out on calibers. I refuse to get anything that's not on the current list and I don't have a thing in 22 mag.

I've been looking for one for several months. Southaven gun show this weekend, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Would go along nicely with my lil pocket rocket. Wonder if they will offer it in 17 hmr or 22 lr? 30 rounds is intriguing but I bet its a pita to load.

They are a great gun, probably the most fun I've had shooting in a while. Extremely accurate.

Joe it probably is a pain to load, but it sure would be fun UNLOADING it.

It's on my shopping list to buy. What kind of pricing have you seen?

Re: Anyone try out the Kel Tec PMR 30.
I got one. I like it a lot! Real fun. The trigger is very light though, at least the trigger on my PMR-30 seems to be very, very light. I haven't handled any others. I was reading all the Kel-Tec stuff about them, some problems, range reports. The only issue I had with mine so far was the fieldstripping. That slide was TIGHT to the frame. Almost didn't want to come off. The sights are good, two red fiber optics in the back, one green fiber optic in the front. I don't know if you'd call that a bull barrel on there or not..but it is fluted.

I traded a Glock 22 for the PMR-30 and 1200 rounds of CCI .22 mag ammo.

I have called all over North Miss and all I find are waiting lists. I am so ready to try one out.

I got the first one that came down my way. they were already on the new barrel and slide when i checked it out. i havnt shot it much, but it is very fun to shoot. The trigger is a match/target trigger. Its very crisp, similar weight to a good 1911 trigger. They were built like that, all of them should be like that.

It feels like an airsoft/toy the first time you pick it up... I used to play airsoft a bit. Once you get a full mag in and slap a hogue wraparound on it, it starts to feel like an actual gun. The thing is crazy light. It would be great for a camping/hiking gun.

Never held one but I agree with Joe, not impressive. I'd rather have a pistol that would take out a threat witn 2-3 shots max instead of spraying around the room.

You wouldnt spray much, its very easy to unload this and keep it on target with the light recoil and crisp trigger.

I've got plenty of carry guns. I wanted this one for the same reason I bought my Taurus Judge. It has many uses. Also I want a 22mag bolt rifle and thought they would work well together!
