I saw an ad on this rifle, I was wondering if anybody has information on it, such as, price, reliability, if it takes AR15 mags, etc.

Is this one of those break-down 9mm Kel-Tec's? If so, DONT BUY.

funny, i have always found those break-down 9mm things (sometimes refered as the kel-tec sub2000) to be exellent guns, as have nearly all of the kel-tec owners i have talked to or heard from. furthermore, this is somewhat moot, because i highly doubt listen2 was asking if a breakdown 9mm carbine used AR mags.

Rumor has it that Kel-Tec will be releasing it at the SHOT show this year.Expect price info in about a month or so.

That thing looks totally sweet.  If it does take AR mags and is less than $500 it would make perhaps the best truck/trunk rifle on the market.

I was thinking the same thing, great to keep in the truck.

The sub 2000 is a good truck gun.  I have one as a compliment to the pistol located in aforementioned truck.  I keep mine behind the seat in a Sears Craftsman truck box customized to hold it securely.  If one is not looking for it, it will be dismissed as a jack and tire iron.  The folding rifles that Kel-tec produces are of good quality that fill an interesting niche.  They happen to be quite concealable in the right container and the fun factor is definitely there.

looks like it takes AR mags (with room in the buttstock to store a 30rd mag), uses an AR-18 tupe recoil/gas system, including an AR15-type bolt.

This is reportedly coming from Cliff, an employee of Kel-Tec.  The rifle DOES take AR mags and will retail in the $640 range.  Just as a note the Sub 2000 retailed for a bit more than I paid for mine.  I don't know if it will be worth this.  Hell for a little more, one could get a Cav-15.
