Keltec appreciation thread

Anyone here own one of these amazing weapons?

>Yo, Mr Kel, should we make a AR?
>Why? everone else makes one, le'ts make a hokey looking Bullpup
>Oh, and let's make an FAL bullpup
>uh... ok...

>Oh, we need some carbines too, let's make a folding one and also a suppressed folding one
>oh, let's make one based on the p90 magazine, with a short barrel of course
>should we make a normal one?
>sure, but make it in 22magnum and also give it a really long barrel with no option for a short barrel version like the other carbines

>Shotguns? sure, but make sure they are all bizzare pup action bullpups
>no regular tube magazines?
>make one, but have it be 410 caliber, and give it a double tube magazine

>Can we make a normal pistol?
>Absolutely not, let's make everything for concealed carry
>but then have a few huge sporting pistols that are wildly inconvenient
>in fact, lets have a pistol based off the p90 magazine
>and lets make a 5.7 pistol with clips just to annoy Califonia
>can we make one full sized pistol, with magazines?
>PK... but only in 22 magnum.

I generally like KT products, although usually only if I pick them up secondhand for about half what they cost new. I've owned multiple SU-16s, a Sub-2000, RDB and a CP-33. Thinking about an RFB but I don't want to deal with FAL magazines again and I don't really need another battle rifle. I'll probably pull the trigger on one of it's a stupid good deal.

How would you rank their durability and reliability? I know there's the joke about how Lel Keks are always made with recycled beach toy plastic, or something to that effect, but I've heard too many good things about the SUB2K and their mag-fed carry pistols for that to be a rule.

I haven't had many problems with reliability, but durability is a different story. You can feel plastic flexing and it is readily apparent that throwing it around will break something. This is more of a problem on the long guns than the handguns, but I don't think any of their designs are particularly resistant to abuse.

Can you elaborate on this bullpup 7.62? I had written KT off as meme tier fever dream nonsense

I want to buy the ODG RFB but there are 2 UPCs and I want to determine the difference. It is expensive but I found out the RFB has a chrome-lined barrel.
>>
>>64867496
The RFB is actually good as long as it's maintained. the gas system needs to be properly set up, and it's a very complicated forward ejection mechanism.

Unusually for Keltec, the build quality is good, the accuracy is astonishing, the trigger is top quality

Unlike their 556 gun where the whole appeal is the bullpup nature, but it's inferior to most 556 rifles, the RFB is a legitimately great 762 rifle, with performance comparable to even high quality standard 762 rifles, but all the benefits of a bullpup.

This isn't just my bias for bullpups, the RFB is the best 762 you can currently get, and it's smaller than a FOLDED FAL paratrooper
>>
>>64867416
something wrong with the perspective or is the rfb really just that small?

Biggest benefit to 22 mag over 22lr that everyone overlooks is jacketed bullets. It's a significant step up in terminal performance. Also 22 mag typically has better qc overall so you're less likely to get duds.

Brandon is such a goddamn poseur compared to George Kellgren.

Kellgren has spend over half a century designing new and interesting firearms, while never seeking the limelight.
Sure, his guns are often quirky, but this is literally Kellgren's side gig. It's a hobby.
Meanwhile Brandon thinks it's a whole ass enterprise to scale up the AK to fire fifty cal, because le epic challenge, something Kellgren could probably do in a few months... While using a slide rule.

Because George has forgotten more about firearms than Brandon has ever learned.

I'm wronghanded, so the downward ejection is nice instead of right in front of my face. I like the compact bullpup design, and I like that it's affordable (like 1/3 the price of a tavor). Recoil is very light, and I've never had any malfunctions in the last 1,500ish rounds (had some FTEs out of the box as the gas was set for 5.56, not .223. Once adjusted, it's been flawless).
>>
>>64880592
>the gas was set for 5.56, not .223.
i thought they were the same thing...
>set the gas right
hear that a lot about Keltecs, seems like a very common problem that they need their gas systems adjusted out of the box


For the price, what are the other options?

Hellion is over double, Aug is double, DDM4 is at least 50% more and not bullpup.

for under 1k, under 800 for the cheaper one, how can you do better?
>>
>>64880623
5.56 is like 60,000psi whereas .223 rounds have 55,000psi. That extra 5,000 pounds per square inch of pressure can make a difference on a rifle, determining whether it can cycle properly, or if the chamber can handle that extra pressure (in the case of some .223 rifles being loaded with 5.56).
That said, setting the gas on the RDB is super simple- it's just a knob on the front of the rifle. I gave it 2 clicks of adjustment and it's been perfect for me.

Yeah...let's not pretend like they weren't (aren't) a problem in their own right. I'd much rather take the clueless zoomer who got into the hobby because of social media over ranges being dominated by faggot boomers giving you the side-eye because you're not a fellow geriatric, or you're shooting a "notsee/commie" gun, or you're shooting a little bit faster than the "one shot per 3 seconds" rule, or whatever the fuck. The sooner the boomerocracy disappears, the better. At least the zoomers mind their own fucking business.

Ammo cost for one thing. Turks have made it cheaper, but the cheap 410 ammo I have seen was really sketchy. I don't think it would work in a KT product.
