    My point was some guns last longer than others. A lot longer. Keltec produces guns I don’t take as serious as most of my others.

    My P11 lasted for 15 years until I traded it in and got most of the money back I paid for originally. Looked like new, even though I did shoot the crap out of it.

    The 2000 is for shooting it enough to make sure it works, stick some stuff on there to make it shoots nicer, shoot it some more to make sure you didn't eff it up, and then clean and lube it, and fold and store it away for the day you need a 9mm carbine that fits into a laptop bag.

    Cool. I criticize them for how their constructed. Plus being generally cheaper than other guns. it won’t bother me if something happens to my sub2000. Why it’s more disposable than other guns to me. Lol I don’t care about it. Wish the keltec handguns I have seen had your p11’s legendary status. I will say they are getting better.

    First...to OPs picture...damn!

    I had one when they first came out
    Accurate all get out, but jarred my jaw so much I didn't like shooting it even with a foam pad, so it got traded off

    I've put on a muzzle brake, heavier bolt and a rubber sleeve to reduce the getting kicked in the jaw by a mule feeling. Feels like shooting a 10/22 now.

    I have had mine for a few months now and havent taken it to the range yet.

    Had to have it. I've wanted one since I was a young boy and they were still called the Sub9.

    Hope like hell it stays in one piece.

    The Kalashnikov has done more to change the course of history than anything Stoner ever designed...

    And if it wasn’t around all of those 3rd world crap hole countries would have grabbed the next cheapest rifle and done the same thing.

    A bunch of dictators threw meat in to the grinder to change the course of history. The clunky rifle just happened to be there.

    It's a combat proven weapon, and has never needed a forward assist added to it meaning it was designed properly in the first place.

    But I understand, some things don't always start out correctly and need "adjusting" to make them "right," just like...

    A buddy of mine bought one last week. After shooting the 6th round, he un-shouldered it and it came apart. Are you guys aware of this issue? I just bought one last week. He said Kel-Tec is aware, but has not issued a recall yet.

    If this has already been posted, I apologize. Mods can delete.

    That can be fixed with some good epoxy or JB Weld. ;) But hopefully Keltec will fix it. And by that I mean replace it.

    Most people know that the forward assist isn't for forcing a round to chamber, and those that do, generally get what they deserve.

    Took mine out to my local range for the first time. No malfunctions with 200rds of steel cased ammo.
    The ergonomics were funky. Kept trying to charge it with my left hand holding the pistol grip with my right.
    The charging handle is on the butstock and angles towards my trigger hand.
    Also, I didn't realize the bolt dosent lock back to the rear, at least it didnt for me.
    With iron sights I kept a 4" group at 25yds
    I'd probably move my Romeo 5 over to the sub 2000 next trip.

    Most importantly, it didn't blow up!
