I recently purchased a Kel-Tec Sub 2000 Gen 2 that accepts Glock Magazines. ($429.00) The Gen 2 has several improvements over the Gen 1. The polymer encasement has been overhauled, trimmed, and textured. Railed surfaces accept been added on the top and bottom of the handguard equally well as Thousand-lock slots on the sides. The front sight is metal (previously plastic) and adjustable besides as hands removable. The stock has 3 length adjustments.The rifle unmodified weighs 4.25 lbs.

I fabricated several modifications:

ane) Tacticool Buffer Cylinder-Reduce felt recoil up to xxx% $9.50
2) Tacticool Bolt Tube Cover- Allows for wider and softer mount against chin. $fourteen.25
3) Red Lion Precision Forend- This is machined forend that indexes and then that you can mount scopes and grips and withal fold the burglarize. $149.00
4) Two total length picatinny rails. $62.00
4) Magpul forgrip. $xxx.00

The modifications make this gun experience much more solid than stock.

The burglarize length is 28 inches open and xv inches folded. With modifications it weighs just under 6 lbs.

I accept experienced no issues shooting 100 rounds of diverse 9mm ammo. Open sight accuracy is good. I can hit six inch steel targets at 75 yards easily. I have yet to install an optic. The burglarize disassembles hands for cleaning and lubing. This rifle is very fun to shoot!

Slick. Is that a factory front sight?

Does the Red Lion product twist/plow?

I have an older one. The face slap is pretty bad. I like your mods. Well done.

Slick. Is that a manufactory forepart sight?

Does the Red Lion product twist/turn?

I accept an older i. The face slap is pretty bad. I like your mods. Well washed.

Chickenman: That is the stock forepart sight. The Crimson Lion product does twist and lock. Thanks for the kind words.

Prissy carbine.

I've considered replacing my gen 1 with a gen two for the front sight alone. I just haven't seen a gen ii with the Sig mag configuration yet.

Thank you okststefan. Aye, I would have had a Gen 1 if I could take institute one in the past few years. These rifles are difficult to detect, at least around here.

I had the Gen 1 and got rid of information technology because I couldn't stand the front plastic sight. Even so, if the Gen 2 has a steel sight that is a great improvement.

Your petty carbine looks sweetness.

I had the Gen 1 and got rid of it because I couldn't stand the front end plastic sight. However, if the Gen 2 has a steel sight that is a groovy comeback.

Your little carbine looks sugariness.

Thanks Choctaw. The front end sight is besides threaded on and can hands exist removed versus the mucilage on sight on the earlier version.
