More Kel-Tec Unicorns on the way

Hard enough to get what they make already. Where's the RMR?

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Keltecs R&D department must be bigger than their production department by about 10-1.

I was going to add
They need to expand their production line first, not their product line.

BTW: Target date is sometime in late 2014. In other words, we'll see the first one sometime in 2022

That not only looks ugly but very cheap and thrown together (the keltec pic) not a fan. Ps is it only in .223 and not 5.56 as I'm reading and that makes it all the worse.

Look like typical prototypes to me.
A lot of companies use the terms 223 and 5.56 interchangeably.
Only having a picture and extremely little info of a gun probably still years away doesn't help.

Had a RDB that was returned to KELTEC for repair.
I got it to fix after the factory repair failed.

Seems the design was a copy of a Bushmaster M-17 IMO.

It was a well made gun

RFB maybe there cranky?
M17 is based on the AR-18/180, RFB internals look nothing similar.

Sorry RFD

One of the recoil spring seats broke loose from the spot weld in top cover so I did not even worry about the internals.

Plus it is a goofy bullpup , you WDJ are the expert in those.

So if it is not , then it is not.
The spring spot weld issue, seen this in the Kel-Tec forum, think it was suppose to be limited to a certain S/N range if I recall right. Have had zero issues with mine.
BTW: Who is WDJ and what's a RFD? :llama:

Too many initials in this thread
PDQ it went FUBAR

Sorry WLJ a RFB
As for a recall that is unknown.
Only know what customer told me.
I do know . I hope I never see that again,
Orginial idea was to use the spring guide to hold the seat in the right spot and then tack it in place
So I replaced the spring back on the guide, that was the mistake , removing the spring.
I only launched the guide once and my tv caught it. Put a dent in the tube, luckily did not break the old TV.
I can see way there are two springs, one spring would be near impossible to draw back.

I TIGed the seat back in spot after measuring and clamping in place.
I silver soldered it also just to make sure it held.

No recall that I recall, just a certain range of S/Ns was mention as having this issue. They do have lifetime warranties.
