For that price I will own one as soon as come out.

I would expect to see a real-world price of around +/- $350 after the new wears off and supply channels fill up.

Interesting point. Do you give them time to work out the kinks, or do you buy an early one that they (may) be taking greater care with?
I'd wait a while to see if the initial release works. Kel-Tec went through hell and back with the P32 and P3AT when those models were brand new. Multiple extractor and ejector designs/shapes, etc. In fact, the P3AT is now produced as a very different pistol from initial release. They completely redesigned the top end, which was called the "2nd generation". Now, they are on generation 2.5 with the improved hammer block where you can't drop the hammer from half cock anymore if you don't fully let the trigger out during rapid fire.

Wow if kel-tec is getting back on this boat again after the Grendal P-30 then maybe they will redesign the much cooler R-31
I hope so, too.
I have an original R-31 and it is a blast.

I sure hope that heel release doesn't wear on the metal magazine latch cutouts on my p32 ... or something
Seriously, now MrsBFD wants one, too ... we need to criticize more like miket is doing to keep Kel-Tec from raising the price based on obvious demand.
This thing is junk, I tell you! Send me one NOW and I'll tell you all the things that go wrong with it in the first 10,000 rounds or so

I like it....I've wanted a 22mag for a while, and this is just the ticket. More accurate than the NAA mini revolvers, that's for sure (what I was going to get). The 30 round magazine is just insane. Not having to reload that much more often at the range is awesome.

Considerin' it's not a defensive handgun, and George Kelgren tends to fix what ain't right on his products, no charge, maybe you can put your snark back in your posing pouch and let the grown-ups talk, kiddo.Y'all beta testers be sure to let the rest of us know how those work out.

How cool would this be with a threaded 22LR barrel. Anyone else think that would be awesome with a can?

I know. Where did the grown-ups go. So, were name calling now.
Come on grow up people, there is no law that we all have to agree that if I like something that everyone should.

To keep this on topic, I am excited about this pistol. I've talked to several people who have had great experiences with Kel-Tec's customer service. Matter of fact, my P-11 was owned by a friend who had sent it back to Kel-Tec due to it not feeding properly. They fixed it, tested it, and shipped it back with a free magazine and a hand written note.
IF...IF this PMR-30 has issues with feeding due to the magazine, I am sure Kel-Tec will address it ASAP. Since they have had experience 22 Magnum with ridiculous magazine capacities before, I'm thinking they know their stuff.
But man...30 rounds of 22 Magnum in a pistol is an awesome combo.

Five pages, and it's getting personal. Suggestion: Shoot one and report back with a new thread.
And save the snark for a website that approves of it.

I'll bet the engineers at Ruger are thinking, "What the hell?". We missed the boat again.
But Ruger can always make their own version, complete with a self addressed prepaid recall shipping label (hey, I love Ruger's older stuff)

OK, I have no use for it but I think I want one, maybe with a swoopy tac-light to make it more like a BSG sidearm.
Seriously, it's just neat.
