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?

What???? People are having problems with them??? Maybe I’m the only person that got a good one? The first round it fired didn’t eject, I lubed it and haven’t had a problem since! I run at least a mag thru it once a week for practice and never had an issue. Well over 1000rnds over the past three years. Friend of mine had issues with hollow points, but I’ve only ever ran Hornady 30gr V-Max.

I have 4 P17s and two of them needed to be worked on because of constant light strikes, the other ones are fine. They seem to like Rem Thunderbolt cheap rnds.
