... "fun" doesn't count...



Since when?...



My Internal Firearm Purchase Rationalization Engine requires one other quality aside from "fun".   Otherwise I get an "Reason not found: abort, retry, fail?" error when I open my wallet.




there is a patch for that.




I bypassed that particular sub-routine many, many guns ago...

I had to have my local gun store order one for me.  They'd never heard of it and I don't think the guy believed me when I told him they made them.  When he looked them up, he said they weren't available yet.  

But he said he try to get one.

It'll be $465.

there is a good bit of plstic that could easily be ground off to remove an ounce or so.



Yes, but the point I was trying to make was that I don't think it matters what the pistol actually weighs. I think the term "Manufactured Weight" means that the weight it came out of the factory is the weight that matters from the legal perspective. So no matter how much you shaved off, it would always weigh 51 ounces in the eyes of the law, and hence be an assault weapon. Of course, IANAL so I'm just speculating on what that term means.

It was 465 at my local gun show this weekend and its 475 on gunbroker (reserve price).

This will fit perfectly in the little cubby hole in my Scion Xb in the back.  Its a tiny trunk.  

This thing looks awesom.  Keltec continues to be innovative at the low-end. I'm really impressed with them.

The dealer price for these is right about $400, so paying much more than $480 (Standard 20% markup) would be excessive.


Fuck, I want one now.

i assume it came with the gallon jar of anal ease?



Anal Ease? Sounds like an actual product name....which....since you actually know of a specific product used, I assume, in the "easing" of inserting things anally, I find it.....alarming.

Just for curiosity, I'll Google this to confirm my suspicion.....


Ok...I'm back, and the horror is well founded. It's an actual product.

Ok....now back to the PLR-16.

the only reason i know is some innocent arfcommer posted a pic of his guns on his bed. A big jar of it was on his headboard <shutter>

Just for anybody who is interested, a local dealer in my area has it listed on their website for $442.

GunDepot PLR-16

Now, I know they don't have it in their shop, especially since it's not legal in this state. I guess that means they can order it for that price and ship it to your local FFL.

Ammo Oracle says you need 2700 fps for reliable fragmantation.  I wonder how it would do with a lighter varmint load or maybe hollow points or a ballistic tip or something?  If only there were some sort of Box O' Truth where you could get answers to such questions.

HOLD OFF on purchasing.

mine suffered a catastrophic failure with winchester whitebox ammo today. upper reciever completely disentigrated and bolt was found about 20' behind me. Had i been a few inches higher on the bore it would be in my forhead right now.

pics and info sent to kel-tec. waiting to hear back from them. will post pics after hearing from kel-tec. My initial thought is it fired out of battery but i will await their information.

he that was my first thought, was glock making their frames

such is life when you gamble on a new design. i had heard of no structural problem in the carbine and was hoping this would be a fair gun for the price. Not ruling out ammo failure, but time will tell.

Glad the bolt flew past, not into to you.  My buddy recently had a Beretta 92F explosion with 9mm WWB.  Blew the primer and  bottom corner of brass case apart and damaged the slide.

At least if it had hit you in the head, there would have been no damage.
