Kel-Tec PMR-30 pistol

Posted on by

The Gun of the Week is the Kel-Tec PMR-30 pistol chambered in .22WMR. I got a chance to check it out and Nova Armament Gun show in Herdon, VA. Malcolm did a demo for me as seen in the YouTube video below. The PMR-30 is a double stack semiautomatic pistol that has a 30 round magazine.

The PMR-30 is a light weight, full size pistol chambered for the flat-shooting .22Magnum cartridge (.22WMR). The PMR-30 operates on a unique hybrid 
blowback/locked-breech system (technical ain’t it?).   This operation system allows for the use of a wide variety of ammunition as it seamlessly adjusts between locked breach and blowback 
operation, depending on the pressure of the cartridge. It uses a double stack magazine of a new design that holds 30 rounds and fits completely in the grip of the pistol.
The trigger is a crisp single action with an over-travel stop.

The manual safety is a thumb activated ambidextrous safety lever (up for SAFE, down for FIRE). The slide locks back after the last shot and a manual slide lock lever is also provided. The light, crisp trigger pull and fiber optic sights make the PMR-30 ideal for target shooting and hunting small game.

Slide and barrel are steel, frame is aluminum. Grip, slide cover, trigger, mag release, and safety levers are glass reinforced Nylon (Zytel), much like other Kel-Tec Pistols. Magazine is Also Zytel and holds 30 rounds, with round count ports. Other features include: dual opposing extractors for reliability, heel magazine release to aid in magazine retention, dovetailed aluminum front sight, Picatinny accessory rail under the barrel, Urethane recoil buffer, captive coaxial recoil springs. The barrel is
fluted for light weight and effective heat dissipation. PMR30 disassembles for cleaning by removal of a single pin.

  1. I’ve wanted one of these for a couple of years now. Probably going to have to wait some time though for wildcat prices and demand to come down.
