    This is not mine! It is a friends. He was out shooting with it today and after the 3rd shot of the 2nd mag it broke in half. I don't remember the model, it's .40 cal
    He sent me these pictures to share.
    You know as much as I do, so I can't answer any questions, I just wanted you all to be aware

    They will only cover the original owner with Receipt or a Copy of the 4473 for the Warranty. Did he Drop it or use it for a Club? Doesn't look like a break from a stress riser in the plastic. Seems one would have noticed a Crack before it broke completely in two.

    That is their new take down model. They are trying to compete with Rugers 1022 take down. It should just snap and thread right back together.

    That WAS a Kel-Tec "Sub 2000", and it's not suppose to do that.

    I bet the problem arose because it used Glock mags! :stickpoke:

    I had one for a short time.Glad now I got rid of it.
