I don't have one (Kel-tec PLR-16), but a dealer local to me has one for sale for $439. I am curious as to what you guys that own Dracos think about it?
By the way I have an SAR-3 shooting 5.56. So the ammo would be good for me. |

I had the PLR16 and the PLR22...sold my PLR16 without even shooting it...it's super loud since it's a pistol. I also recently bought a Draco and haven't shot it yet.
I find the PLR16 to feel cheap as with most items from Kel Tec. The Draco feels solid compared to the PLR16. |

The PLR-16 has mixed reviews. It appears that (from owners statements) that the front handguard is a must as the barrel gets too hot. I have read about some FTF as well as FTE problems, but after sending them back in KelTec seemed to make it right. About the only real advantage I see in this pistol would be the ability to use the AR platforms magazines (and it comes with a single sight mount on top already). I popped a mag out of an AR-15 on the shelf and it was a perfect fit.
As far as how loud it is, I wonder if the Draco is any quieter? |
