The KelTec Sub2000 Gen 3 9mm Tan 10-Round (KelTec part no. SUB2K9GLKTAN10) is the tan, 10-round version of the maker’s folding semi-automatic carbine. Its rotating forend leaves the rifle optics ready, so a red dot can stay mounted through folding. The 16.1-inch barrel delivers more velocity from the 9mm round than a handgun, and Glock 17 and Glock 19 magazines feed it. A straight blowback action and tool-free field stripping keep it easy to run, clean and carry.

Key Specifications
