[QUOTE="Werewolf, post: 1868746, member: 239"] I've wanted a KT PMR-30 ever since Kel-Tec started making them. Ignoring the fact that they are almost impossible to acquire it's damn near impossible to figure out if they are the POS that some say or the be all and end all of 22 semi-auto pistols that others claim. Just the other day I read a review by a Gun Blogger that said the one he and his team have had for over a year has run flawlessly. Shoots any type of 22 WMR they feed it; they've shot thousands of rounds thru it without cleaning it. They've done a torture test where they shot 200 rounds as fast as they could thru it without issue. On the other hand Kel-Tec has an upgrade guarantee (or so I've been told) if you buy one so they must not feel it is ready for prime time yet. A friend commented that more than one major firearms manufacturer has tried over the years to make a reliable pistol that shoots 22 WMR without success. Another very knowledgeable friend says the real issue is the length of the 22 WMR compared to its diameter that creates feeding issues. So what's the deal. Has Kel-Tec finally figured out how to make a 22 WMR semi-auto pistol that works - or not? Inquiring minds want to know. [/QUOTE]
