So I got a generic response today.....
"AS OF 8/1/2016***** WE WILL NO LONGER OFFER THE DIRECT PURCHASE PROGRAM. IN SEPTEMBER WE WILL BE STARTING A PROGRAM SIMILAR TO THE BLUE LABEL PROGRAM GLOCK HAS. IT WILL START IN LIMITED AREA'S AND WE WILL BE ADDED AREA'S AS FAST AS POSSIBLE" I ask when I should check back with them......no response. |

Those who have a gen 2 40 S&W....
What distance do you zero at? I tried at 25 yards, I maxed out both my elevation and windage. I'm still 4 inches low and my windage is fine, but my post is as far left as possible... Havent had a chance at 50 yards yet. Any help? Thanks! |

Maybe try 50 and see where you land. The group has to go up, so my front sight need to go down. So really, I can't go down any further leaving me with just the top of the sight. I'm not sure if it would work going out to 50 yards or not. I really don't want to throw a red dot on it either. |

I sight mine in at 75 yards, had to loosen the jam nut and move the front sight a tad as it was canted. Easy to do, mine shot low but i had enough adjustment to fix it. Have a sparc ar on there now 1/3 cowitnessed to sights.

I have 2 gen 2 Sub 2000's, a 9MM and a .40 S&W. One was spot on as it came from the factory and one had to have the POI moved about 2" to the right. I have an older 9mm Gen 1 Sub 200 that also had to have the POI adjusted a bit to the right, A friend who bought a 9MM after shooting mine had his come from the factory shooting right to POI for him. We were and are very pleased and perhaps lucky. They are great guns....<><....:)

I saw some of you looking for a Gen 2 that takes S&W M&P magazines. A local gun shop named Dawsonville Gun in Dawsonville, GA has a multi-mag variant that is configured for M&P 9mm magazines. It is FDE in color and you can buy an inexpensive part and change it to shoot Beretta mags as well.
I think their price is around $429. |

Does anyone know if the M&P magazine catch will fit a Gen 1?

WHAT!? WHAT?! Someone with an ACTUAL ORIGINAL METAL SUB series!?!? I saw those YEARS ago.... and since them, have not run across another. I bought the original Sub-40 (Glock 22 mag well) via Gunbroker and had to wait FOREVER..... I wanted to pickup another Sub-40, but then the Sub-2000 series replaced it. Wasn't fond of the plastic front sights.....so I never got another. Now with a threaded barrel in the next Gens, I might entertain the idea... LOL. I remember that the marketing point for the original Sub series, the owner/user could change the grips to go from one mag time to a different mag type, if I recall correctly. Does Keltec even have any accessories for the original Sub 9/40s? I wanted to get that funky "folding" scope mount at the time.... (I have never seen another Sub-9/40 for sale locally or even on Gunbroker...not when I look at least....) |

So after selling mine four years ago, one of the bigger regrets in my life, I finally managed to find a G19 sub 2000 for sale.
Can't wait until it comes in. |

Once I learned about the Keltec S2K being interchangeable to take 9mm Glock mags, I bought a Glock 19, a bunch of 17rd and 33rd aftermarket Glock mags and after weeks of patiently bidding on Gunbroker, got a Keltec S2K 9mm glock mag model for only $375. Yeah, I stole it.
I've had a busy sched this year so I've only shot it twice so far. Each time I put several hundred rounds thru it. First time I had no Failures To Feed, no Failures To Fire, no Failures To Eject. But I noticed the hammering my cheek was getting from pressing down on the tube whilst aiming. I also noticed that no matter how hard I pressed my cheek down on the stock's tube, I couldn't get my eye to completely line up with the rear ring sight and front post sight. I bought a Hogue grip sleeve, a poly sleeve for the bolt and a poly sleeve for the stock tube. I also pimpified the fore-end with a m-lok sling attachment, a short pic rail for underneath, an angled foregrip and mounted a small LED flashlight underneath the muzzle. Second time I shot it was this weekend (9/23/2017). I ran about 300 rds thru it. I had about six malfunctions but every single time it was from some cheapass aluminum Monarch ammo. I will never buy that crap again. All the brass reloads I got at a gunshow performed flawlessly. But once again, I had trouble with my cheek-weld. I just plain couldnt get my eye to line up with the sights. Here's my question: are there aftermarket sights I can buy to raise the rear sight ring and raise the front sight post? If so, who, what, where, etc? If there isn't an aftermarket sight fix for this, I reckon my only alternative is to buy a side-mount for an optic and put some kind of red dot on there. Thanks for the help y'all! Mark/ A-Aargh 15 |

I think some blowback guns are no go with aluminum ammo. Can’t remember when or where I came across that but it was a long time ago.

View Quote Meanwhile, it was great shooting my Glock 19 for the first time. I won a Gunbroker auction for that one too. It's a Glock Factory Refurb, Gen 3. When I picked it up at my local gun dealer, he & and I couldn't tell the difference between it and a new Glock 19 he had in the display case. Glock did a really good job because we couldnt tell what parts had been repaired or replaced. It looked brand new. Then a buddy of mine who is former Marine Corps showed me a different grip method at the range that made all the difference. My accuracy improved immediately. Semper Fi! |

Is there enough barrel in front of the front sight to have it threaded?

MCARBO just rolled out a (slightly) taller rear sight, in both peep & notch versions. Both are supposedly able to work with the factory front iron.
Since the front is just a standard AR post, any taller AR post will work. But I've not seen anyone try that combo yet. I just run a red dot on a tall riser with a QD mount, so I can still break it down for carry if needed but the red dot is much more fun at the range. I had a TLR-4 light/laser on my SUB2k for a while and really liked that setup vs the QD red dot, but recently pulled it to mount on my G40. When I come across another great deal on another TLR-4 I'll replace it. |

I put a Red Lion on my SUB 2,000 and it is a great front sight , it is the sight that KEL-TEC should put on the gun at the factory . MC

So you bought the CQ? That gun is intriguing to me. I asked if they could retrofit a old gun and they said no.
|
|
Yep, as soon as they posted on FB I headed to thee store and paid. Fingerprints on Tuesday so I can send off the F4.

Seems like the few that I’ve seen pop up on gun broker have sold way above MSRP and definitely above what I would expect the street price to eventually be? I’d also be really interested in seeing how it shoots, if you get a conjugal visit with it prior to getting the stamp back. I love integral suppressor guns, I’m just a little worried about the blowback port pop |
