Bought the most popular rifle in the country right now. Price has jumped $200 due to demand. Its damn near impossible to find one now. Its the KelTec SUB2000 Gen 2 in 9mm. Oh are we going to have some fun. There are plenty available in .40 cal but not in 9mm.
It folds up nicely. Mine uses Glock 17 mags. Going to put a green laser on it. There's reasoning for all this. First, as a home defense weapon. Second, I'm 76 now and not as spry or strong as I once was was. Its lightweight, takes 10, 17 and 33 round mags and the muzzle velocity goes up due to the longer barrel and recoil is not a problem.

That's an interesting looking firearm. The fold it in half thing would make it easy to store. The 9mm ammo is relatively inexpensive. Congrats Karl.

Nice rifle, have never seen one of those before. Let's see now, because it is semi-automatic, it is not
a machine gun or an assault rifle. But is fires a pistol round, so it falls into the "sub-" category. So where does
it fall into a gun name category..... sub-semi automatic.... sub-semi.... sub-marine....(if used by USMC).....
I may have to ponder this further..........

But.. Vern... it's also "black". Black firearms are sinister and in a class by themselves. And.. Black isn't beautiful when it comes to gun banning. Just the opposite. I'm sure that will end up in someone's ban it list. This of course will do wonders for the sales figures.
