Keltec Sub2000 home invasion

Mine has been close to 100% reliable except for some American Eagle duds I had once.

I have 20 round promags (6 or 8) that have been great with mine. I have a quad rail with light and Vertical grip that makes it a fine little home SD firearm. I would have no problem using mine for HD.

It's also been solid with winchester PDX +p 9mm (the only HP's I've tried)

I wouldn't know about inside but outside you can shoot this thing without ear plugs. I know because my son used it to take his first deer when he was 5.


That being said, it's in the safe and my 500 is beside the bed.
 
>>There's nothing really wrong per se with something like a Sub2000 as an HD weapon<<

On the other hand, I'm picking one up in .40 just to play with. :)
 
I won't comment on the advisability on using a pistol caliber carbine generally for HD. Seems to me that if you are comfortable with it why not.

As for the sub 2k specifically, I've owned one for a while and find it to be a total piece of garbage. Cheaply made and completely unreliable with repeated stove pipes and failures to extract, even after 2 trips back to the factory. You'll hear people say that it is finicky with ammo and that may be true, or it may be the way the mag seats in the newer model, or it may be sensitive to "limp shouldering" -- not having the stock not firmly planted in the shoulder resulting in failure of the gun to cycle properly. Whatever the issue is, which neither I nor customer service at Kel Tec were able to figure out, I would never stake my life on it if I had any other alternative. Period.

It really is a shame, because it is a great concept. Just very poorly executed.
