These are impossible to find. Kel-Tec should ramp up production and these would sell all day long. Is that clear magazine factory Glock? Never saw one before.

I've got a first generation Sub 2000 in 9mm that uses G17 magazines. One of the best truck rifles ever made. Enjoy . . .

Congrats! I also own a Sub2K Gen2 compatible with Glock 19 mags. The only issue I had with mine was that under live fire, the front sight rotated out of position. After a month long trip to Kel-Tec for warranty repair, it's been steady.

They may not be the best looking thing but compact, lightweight, and very accurate. Cannot go wrong. Good purchase, enjoy and have fun shooting the heck out of it.

My issue with the Sub2000 is that they are unobtanium at a sensible price.

I don't understand KelTec's marketing/manufacturing plan. I was on a list for 13 months before I got my PMR30. I ran across my Sub 2000 Gen 2 in a big box store; they had two of them for $349 each.

Brasky, just a note of caution regarding hearing protection. Although your ears don't ring and you don't experience discomfort, you may still be damaging your hearing. Take it from a 72 year old shooter who just paid $7500 for hearing aids.

If you're looking to have one immediately, yes.

The moment the Gen2 was announced at Shot show 2015, I placed an order and put down a $250 deposit with the biggest privately owned gun store in the area. They didn't have a SKU or a price yet, but gladly took the order. 9 months later, I had one in hand.

Could not find one for 2 years. Turned out good news because the GEN 2 is much nicer. Have not had a single FTF or FTE and accuracy is good. Pushing about 400 rounds so far. Amazing how much quieter 9MM is out of that length barrel. Having 60 rounds of ammo available in two mags is a comfort. Enjoy.

Look into getting a sight upgrade from redlionprecision. They are not cheap but you will not have to worry about the stock sight giving you trouble when you need it most.
Nice acquisition. I really like mine.
