So on a whim I bought it used about 3 days ago. And oh boy its fun. I've eaten threw a healthy amount of 40sw to haha. Its dead accurate and a blast to shoot. Fist size whole at 25 yards. So out of curiosity. What have you guys done to yours. The previous owner modified the grip to take glock 23 mags which is great because I own a glock 23. Also added a stock extension and a rubber sleeve on the tube... was hoping someone made and after market stock maybe with a recoil pad. Its so small it finds its way into making you sore haha. But yeah front sights.. forends.. and any accesories uou have done I would like to hear about.

 

Pic time

The .40S&W version is sweet. Great plinker. Have you checked out Red Lion Precision products? I haven't used them, but see good reviews. I'm thinking about getting thr front sight.

i thought nics was down? ' Anyway' I have the 40s&w and it is great

 

good luck with your new plinker

 

btw'' i took the rubber part off a pen and put it around the charge handle for better grip

google tacticool products they have recoil product. but IMOP it is not needed for either version

 

great bookbag fit

Nics was backed up 96 hours when I bought this. The guys at ba said I was the only nics fax that went threw

I still have the 40. I love that gun. When it folds up it freaks people out

They are neat, congrats. The bad thing about accessorizing is once you start putting on optics or better sights or rails or anything, is that with a lot of those accessories it fails to fold, or at least fold completely. IMO, that gun's selling point is it's compactness as well as the ability to fold...and you give that up for some accessories.

 

I know they sell a rail that allows it to fold like 95%, not sure who sells it.

 

I'd suggest becoming a member over at the Keltec forum. They have a 'post your sub2k's' thread with tons of pics and mods. 90% of them are pretty ridiculous but it gives you an idea.

 

Edit: I really hope you didn't pay some ridiculous price for it, but hey, to each their own!

Nope 450 otd I looked on gunbroker and used they were going for 600ish so once u include transfer and shipping I got a good deal. They do make for ends that rotate but u need to replace your feont sight block I do not want to do this. I may take a foling optic mount and make it work.

People hook these guns up big time. There is so much that can be done. Here is a pic I took from another forum. Wish I could find one in a 9mm.

What have you guys done to yours.

 

Sold it, wasn't southpaw friendly. And it didn't like aluminum or steel-cased ammo.

Im a lefty only thing not friendly is the mag release

 

shells and chamber crap were flying into my mouth, yuck.

Havent had that issue yet only fired 100 rounds so far. Next time ill put a paper towel over my mouth and see how dirty it gets. If thats the case ill sell it

it must have been an issue with my gun, or maybe the way I hold it. But for some reason the chamber yuck was spat into my mouth. Kinda gay sounding but it wasn't yummy.

 

Too bad though, as I like the concept.

 

Kel-Tec has great ideas, they just can't make a quality product in my opinion.

jesus...why bother buying a compact folding rifle if you are going to do that to it...

I fully agree. I can understand a red dot that has a QD mount that you can throw on and off quickly, but most of the pictures on the kel tec forum have these things wayyyyy too done up.

I have the 9mm version and I haven't tried anything but brass, but I can tell you it doesn't like 115gr rds, I need to run 124gr rds to not have stove piping issues. I also bought mine used on a whim for a very cheap price, thinking it would be a good shtf gun (fold it up in a backpack and go). It needs to prove itself quite a bit more for me before I can trust it in any situation...

^ that being said, it's a ton of fun to shoot and its a nice plinker until I can figure out the perfect ammo to use that makes it more reliable

If you ever decide to sell your Sub2000 let me know. I would grab it up....

I own one in 9mm. I think its fun to shoot and everyone always seems to like the concept of it. I'm keeping mine bone stock.

I have 2 again. Found another 9mm. 9 and 40 again. 40 glock and 9 beretta. Got a piece that is supposed to allow for use of sig mags haven't tried it yet. Need a 229 mag to try it

Yes you did! Now I am looking to trade my Bushy M4ergry for another one in 40 or 9.
