@jonboyfutch8081 That’s not my experience with mags. I have AR mags that I have had loaded for years. When I did use them, they functioned perfect. I’ve had CZ75 mags loaded for many many months if not years, I run them without issue.
@@davidbrown2284 Same experience here. I’ve had 40 round AK mags sitting in my closet loaded for years. And they functioned just fine when I finally took them to the range.
Tell keltec I will be adding one asap, I see it as a field pistol. Think a backpack gun with 21 rounds weighting 17 ounces, and capable of taking a deer.
Not a good choice for deer. Most likely it will go a few miles before it stops, if it does, it could live for a while. Plus I doubt it will leave a blood trail for you to follow, caliber is too small. Plus you need to check your state hunting laws. They may have a minimum caliber size limit. Which the smallest I know of is .223. I haven't seen 5.7 being allowed for deer hunting.
I don't know what side you're talking to, but 57 out of a pistol is not going to stop a deer. 57 out of a rifle is probably not ideal to stop a deer. You talking about shooting a deer with a 40 grain or less bullet.
I'm calling it, Kel Tec is gonna follow with a PR57 carbine, a budget lightweight semi auto carbine with the same magazine concept as this handgun would definitely Italy be on my wishlist
Thank you for what is easily the best video on this gun so far. You did a great job showing us the action and the little features. This gun looks super cool, especially for the price. I've not had the best experiences with KelTec in the past, but if this proves reliable I'm pretty sure I'll be getting one just for the novelty of the action.
Reminded me of a little bit of Grendel. Yes, I agree that Mr. George K is the living legend of gun design! I had pleasure meeting him about 10 years ago, he was super nice and down to earth.
Most of the states with 10rd limits would still ban this. BUT, there's a lot of people carrying with less than 21 rounds on them. That's not a bad loadout for daily carry. If this thing works it'll be worth looking at.
The Grindle before the Kel-tec name came about later called the P10 was the first subcompact 380 he designed that was fed from a .556 10 round stripper clip. Fun little pistol if you were only 7 feet from your target.
I'm assuming the PR57 has a long trigger pull for safety, but not the hard creepy P11 trigger. KelTec triggers in all of their guns for over a decade have been good or very good.
@@charlesreese9085 - The P-11 was innovative for its time with the highest capacity of a pocket pistol, back when the CCW revival was sweeping the nation, but the P-11 pistols I've shot had gritty creepy triggers and the snappy recoil combined with my large hands and the relatively close fitting trigger gaurd resulted in the pistol scrubbing against the front of my trigger finger. I didn't like it but the P-11 was not designed to be a fun range toy. It was designed to be comforting, not comfortable.
I have asked and watched all the videos out on it.. I think your assessment is correct. No one has shown any other way but to shoot it or rack the slide 21 times.
Last year I bought the Kel Tec P17- 22 caliber pistol for under 200 dollars and expected it to be junk because it is light as a child's toy gun even fully loaded, but I was pleasantly surprised it was very reliable after several hundred rounds and decided to make it a summer carry being so light, but I want this PR57 for that same purpose since it fires a center fire round and should be more reliable than the 22 rimfire in the P17, I had a Smith air weight 38 special as my carry, but 20 round capacity in a more accurate handgun trumps the 5 rounds of a bigger caliber in my opinion
When I bought my KelTec PMR30, I was walking out of the gun store and stopped to open the plastic case to make sure the pistol was in there. It felt like an empty case. When the PMR30 is unloaded, if feels like a squirt gun. For reliable 22 LR ammo, I recommend CCI. Their rim fire priming process is way better than anyone else's in my experience. Primer reliability is close to being on par with centerfire primers.
george kelgrin at it again with steam punk style pistol styles, 5 or more choices different companies offering 5.7 and it's seems to be a growing trend, I myself need a 5.7 but just looking at my options, that one is light and compact for carry so George I think was thinking concealed carry purpose

Good question but I'm a bit surprised this is a concern. I'd never think of unloading a pistol before coming into the house because, I want to be personally armed at home (in addition to the 12 gauge that may be on the other side of the house), but also because the pistol is safest in its holster and taking it out to unload it seems much more dangerous than leaving it loaded in my pocket.

It would be very difficult to make an internal magazine for clip feeding 22 WMR. It would rim lock like crazy. Then again, KelTec solved the high capacity rim fired magazine stacking issues. Clever engineering can do wonders with injection molding. 3D printing helped iterate the design before investing in expensive injection dies.
I wanted this until I noticed it has no safety of any kind so I will pass on this very cool but possibly dangerous gun. No frame safety, no trigger safety, No grip safety, No slide safety which means not safe. I used to be a no striker gun guy but have changed my mind on that. I will never change my mind on it must have a manual safety unless it is a double single or a Dubble action gun.
I'm not really sure I understand the purpose of this. I think I would far greater prefer to be able to preload full magazines, and have a little bit extra weight, instead of caring boxes of ammo, and this goofy ass speed loader. The only applicable scenario that I can see this being used for would be something akin to the world war II era liberators. To be able to preload these in Styrofoam boxes, airdrop them into areas that need halfway reliable firearms, and just let them be thrown away after being used. They look like this slaught-a-matic from cyberpunk. I don't think I would ever want to see these in the gun store, unless they were coming out of a vending machine in said gun store. Sure is bold of them to give you red dot compatibility but not detachable magazines. Maybe if they're trying to make a California compliant version the top loader would be perfect, but I'm allowed to own magazines where I live, and this looks fucking stupid.
