Which is so unnecessary as they could've put a section of pic rail back there and if people wanted to do the push pull thing with their sling they could since they already make qd mounts for pic rail and everyone who isn't retarded could just put a brace on it.

This gun could've easily worked with what's already on the market but now people are going to have to wait for stuff made specifically for this gun.

Yeah, it looks like the puppyshooters really got to them.

They could have even made a length of pic rail WITH a QD socket machined into it. It's neat looking and a cool concept, but I just can't bring myself to buy KelTec's "big stuff" like their shotguns or rifles since it's, y'know, KelTec. Wouldn't mind having one of their .22 WinMag pistols as a range toy, but none of the stuff that they're trying to market as serious self defense weapons.

So, this may be old news, but the Madlads over at KelTec decided what the world needed was a pistol designed around a P90 mag.

I don't get the point of these silly meme-tier pistol designs, extended magazines for handguns already exist and it would be much less of a pain in the ass to reload a regular glock, beretta or 1911 with one of those then this abortion of a firearm.

Fun novelty, fun story (did I ever tell you about the time I got a P90 pistol?), and I bet it's plenty fun to go plinking with. The intersection of all those could turn it into a good investment that one day pays for itself. Getting a pair of and dual-wielding them is exactly the kind of stupid fun I could see leaving people with more money than sense giggling like school girls. I would have thought funposting101 would be familiar with funguns101.

And admittedly yes, fuck loading p90 mags.

Witty, but you can have plenty of fun with a regular pistol that isn't a pain in the ass to reload.

Regarding the Kel Tec P90 pistol; maybe the point isn’t to reload from the magazine? I can kinda see the novelty of a pistol that holds an entire box of ammo. Although, 9mm is going to have to show up on shelves again before I’d even think of shooting up a box full.
I was going to say that I couldn’t see it being any more successful than the old Calico pistol, but holy crap! It looks like they’re still in business:

To be fair while those do exist none of those are in 5.7. The real problem here is that this what clearly never meant to be a pistol but is obviously more of a PCC but keltec bitched out cause they were afraid of the ATF.

Yeah, or else they know aftermarket people and have something worked out. I mean, this is screaming for some kind of brace or stock and I have a feeling that 9ish inch barrel length is somewhere in the neighborhood of ideal for the 5.7 and that under barrel section of rail that wants some kind of grip? It's weird and awkward, but for some reason I like it.

loading p90 mags

from experience: the military has a plastic bench block with a wedge that pushes against the last round loaded, forcing it up the internal ramp slightly and depressing the follower. you can just as easily use a pencil or pen or something to do the same thing and load the magazine quite easily.

Kel-Tec has a wacky tinkerer/inventor guy as the CEO and Chief Designer. the company functionally exists to make weird guns. also they wouldn't be weird if some regulatory consistency or logic were applied, but instead we get the current BATFE. likewise current legislation makes having weird designs sometimes required - both federally and locally.

also, it is ridiculously easy to convert the P-50 into a (somewhat fragile) machinegun. i don't recommend it because it will literally come apart in less than 1 magazine and is gloriously unsafe. i do agree that Kel-Tec should have just added a 1913 rail at the rear with an included QD 1913 adapter, letting the user catch the felony for an SBR, while marking up a product slightly using commonly available parts/designs.

I thought they existed to sell KSGs.

Friends don't let friends buy meme guns for serious use.

 

[Considered HARMful]

KSG is the most fun shotgun I have and I'm planning on buying more KelTec guns. Unfortunately 5.7mm ammo is rare and expensive in my neck of the woods. I'd buy CP33 though.

Anything I should know about Yugo SKSs? I think I'm going to start collecting Serb shit, and I found a Yugo SKS for a little under 500 and I'm considering getting it.

Check the barrel, and check the grenade launcher cutoff on the gas block. Yugoslavia lacked resources to chrome line their bores or pistons in their semi autos. If someone shot surplus or older ammo through it without maintaining it, it could be badly corroded. Doubly so if it saw any use during the civil war.

Otherwise, Yugos are one of the more nicely made sks's that are available for a reasonable price.

Anything I should know about Yugo SKSs? I think I'm going to start collecting Serb shit, and I found a Yugo SKS for a little under 500 and I'm considering getting it.

Not specific to Yugos, just SKSes in general, but first, check the bore. Can stick a cotton ball or a q-tip in the muzzle and shine a light there, you should see nice crisp rifling. See if the receiver wobbles back and forth or side to side inside the wood stock. Try pushing with your thumb from the back. If it does wobble you can add some shims to fix it or get a decent polymer stock (Choate Dragunov or Promag Archangel for example. ATI anything is flimsy garbage). Receiver is the main part though so don't worry about wood too much. Check for corrosion inside the gas tube and on the gas piston, check for rust in places like that spring-loaded piston that the gas piston pushes, dunno what it's called in English. If it's filthy and heavily used, check the gas port to ensure it's not badly clogged. If it is clogged, poke around with a screwdriver in there until you start seeing chunks of burned-on carbon coming off. Gas port goes straight to the barrel (doesn't have an L bend like it looks from the outside) so don't just directly jam it in there. SKSes are pretty tolerant of clogged gas ports, but may as well do things right. If you want to do an optic on it, only kosher way is a Russian side mount, everything else will be terrible. Check Kalinka Optics for mounting hardware, get a gunsmith to install the side plate with sturdy hardened bolts and pins. You should be able to hammer nails with it.

Edit: And if you do get a Promag Archangel stock, make sure to cut off that hump on the back that prevents the receiver cover from coming off for field stripping, expect to be cleaning it pretty often especially if you use corrosive ammo.

Edit 2: Just because I like SKS spergin', here is the best way to put an optic on it. Parts may be cheaper directly from Kalinka but I can't find either one of these items there anymore.

1. Buy one of these: https://www.aztecharmory.com/kalink...-59630.html?OBNsid=02mpsn4146r6jtkgciaf4ptuv5
2. Buy one of these: https://www.aztecharmory.com/kalink...-61223.html?OBNsid=02mpsn4146r6jtkgciaf4ptuv5
3. If you're Canadian, wait two months. Use the time to make friends with a gunsmith and contemplate moving to the US. Also, do the bolt modification to use detachable mags.
4. Get gunsmith to put everything together. Mount it so you can still see the iron sights below the rail. Should be easy to switch from optics to irons. At this point you'll be improvising a cheek pad and wishing you had a stock like the Choate Dragunov with an added cheek pad.
Good luck.

I just got four Lancer L7 25rnd mags for my LMT MWS308 and I'm really impressed with them. I especially like that they have the steel reinforcing at the top of the mags, including steel feed lips. They definitely seem much higher quality than the P-Mags. I plan on ordering more as soon as I can. If you have a .308 AR then I highly recommend getting these magazines.
