I personally don't see the draw to mounting optics on a Sub 2K.
It often creates issues with folding the gun, and for the effective range of the 9mm cartridge, iron sights are just fine and especially on the new Sub 2K, are plenty precise. Plus you add more weight and bulk to the system, which the Sub 2K is not about.
That's kind of like saying there is no need to mount a red dot or similar on a SMG, yet that is very common. I just like shooting red dots better, and so to me it makes sense, especially if I can retain the ability to fold the gun at the same time.I personally don't see the draw to mounting optics on a Sub 2K.

JMHO.
YMMV.
well you are officially the first person I've come across who did not enjoy the Sub2000....I'm not quite sure why you felt the need to post this in the sub2k thread without relaying any specific reasons or gripes...a bit odd but ok...The Sub 2K looks pretty neat til you fire one. It is very unpleasant to shoot.
I agree. The only advantage of a sub 2K is it is small, light, portable and can use same mags you use for your Glock. After you shoot one some you will discover this advantages are not as important as you thought they would be and you will want to get a real rifle.
...Have you all seen the new Nutnfancy review on this gun? It's a good review.
Or just buy 3 to 5 (or more) 33rd Glock factory mags.If it weren't for these mags I probably wouldn't be as attracted to the Sub2k. Plus, they are compatible with your G19. G17 mags are also compatible with your G19, in which Magpul is now making as well. Bottom line is there are so many inexpensive 9mm Glock mag options, IMO it's not worth holding out for a G19 Sub2k.I want one SO BAD! But all the ones on Gun Broker are going for MSRP or like maybe $5 less if you are lucky.
Also, I have a Glock 19 and would prefer to be able to use 15 round G19 mags in the gun. I know Kel Tec offered the Gen 1 S2K in G19 format, but not sure if they will offer the Gen 2 that way as well.
I actually emailed them a couple days ago asking this question. I'll let everyone know of their response!
...I had to get used to was how short the stock was.... but I don't think I could get used to the ultra short, LOP, but I do have long arms.
I've never actually needed a rifle that could fold itself in half. I guess that's important to some people.
...this is where third party manufacturer's REALLY need to step up....
The ability to carry a 16" carbine and five 33rd magazines in a laptop bag, adds a level of discreetness that is hard to find elsewhere. That is the appeal to the folding rifle concept. It's really not as difficult of a concept to grasp as some people are implying.Maybe we should market folding versions of all sorts of things that up until now no one knew needed to fold. You know, a folding baseball bat, folding TV, maybe a folding motorcycle or something

Actually it's not like that at all, because there isn't a any practical advantage I can think of for storing and transporting a baseball bat in that fashion. However, there is a very practical advantage to being able to carry a small, completely unsuspicious looking case that contains a weapon with greater capabilities than a handgun, and that takes literally 2 to 3 seconds to unfold and work the action to deploy. Whether it's to take on road trips, to work, or wherever, the applications are many more than a few. People live in different environments an under different circumstances; people's situations are not the same. If you don't understand this, I'm sorry, I don't know how else to explain it you.That's sort of like saying that the folding baseball bat lets you conveniently store it in a kangaroo pouch. It's true, so to speak, but WHY? What precisely am I supposed to do with this laptop bag of not-as-of-yet functional weaponry?
