    Does anyone have experience or owned the Keltec PMR 30 in 22wmr caliber? Looking for a light, 22 wmr caliber semi auto pistol.

    Thanks

    Got one, pack it in my pack when ever I’m out and about.

    What questions do you have?

    Any issues with FTF, or loading the full 30 round magazine? I heard earlier versions had issues. Also, do you have to load it differently and tap the magazine every 10 rounds or so? I like the OD green color.

    My brother in law has one, it’s been less than reliable thus far......he’s modified the mag to where it runs sorta ok most of the time lol
    I’m not sure what exact problems he’s having and I don’t think he’s tried many different loads so your mileage may vary :)
    If you want a 22 wmr auto pistol your options are pretty limited tho

    I don’t know what FTF is, I wouldn’t say I’ve had a problem loading 30 rounds but it’s very stiff after 20 or so. I had some problems cycling new rounds in when I first got mine but with a little oil to lube things up I haven’t had an issue. I do tap the magazine every 5 or so round just because.


    Between myself and friends we probably have around 6 different guns, none of us really have any issues.

    I have the black and gray one

    No problem, I’ve had mine for probably 3 years now and it’s spent a lot of Time in my pack when we’re out running dogs. It’s still going strong, we’ve harvested multiple lions and bear with them.

    Love my sub2000. Really want a pmr30 but am going to hold out until I can find a cmr30. Saw one at a gun show but it was way overpriced.

    Yeah, i heard Keltec doesn't make a lot of the PMR 30's and production isnt meeting the demand, and Keltec really doesn't care. They havent got on board with the mass production process yet.
