Hello all,
I am a NB to both this forum and the world of firearms (so please be gentle). Yet I am not a stranger to this forum, I have spent many hours drilling down into the archives for both wisdom and recommendations (thank you, all). So I believe I am posting on the correct forum since the answer(s) will most certainly involve gun-smithing.
Background: I am trying to come up with a 'system' that not only standardizes on the 0.40 S&W caliber but also on a consistent magazine.
I am the new (proud) owner of both a Px4 Storm type F and a Cx4 Storm that accept the newer Px4 magazines (not the more popular 96 magazines). As such, they accept each other magazines quite nicely.
As I look to grow around this 'system' the kel-tec sub 2000 in the Beretta 96 lower seems to a fun choice (why a Cx4 Storm and a sub 2k? - wife and kids can't wait, it folds, etc. - a topic for another thread in another forum).
Finally the question: has anyone converted the Kel-tec sub 2K in the beretta 96 form to accept Beretta px4 magazines (I talked to Bill at Kel-tec and he has not heard of anyone nor do they do custom work)? Or should I just leave the Kel-Tec alone and standardize on the Beretta 96 magazine and then convert the Px4 Storm and Cx4 storm to accept the 96s. I hear this is a fairly simple smithing job using the official Beretta conversion for the Px4 and Cx4 to 96 (C5C620 magazine insert and C89210 magazine release button).
For added bonus points, when I attain carry status I might purchase the Px4 storm sub-compact (I have not handled or fired one yet). Additionally, I am researching other ARs in the 40 S&W like Olympic Arms K40.
Thanks again everyone.
