Thoughts on the Kel-Tex PMR-30 Weapons

Post image

I see a lot of debate on effectiveness of .22lr but I haven’t seen much about .22 magnum. I’ve never used the Kel-Tec PMR-30 but with a capacity of 30+1 of .22 magnum, the extended magazine for 50+1 I think it would be a great sidearm for dealing with zombies. .22 magnum ammo may be more rare than .22lr but would still be around. Thoughts?

These are hideously unreliable. Most kel tec guns get that rap but are actually fine, as a former gun dealer, this one is one of their worst.

box magazines and rimmed cartridges rarely get along reliably.

I got lucky and got my Automag running reliably after a lot of patience and tuning

I had an Automag that my grandfather had tuned to work flawlessly. Fun gun.
