The Kel-Tec KP50 5.7x28mm pistol (brand part no. KP50TANB) is a large-format pistol built around two 50-round magazines, giving shooters more on-tap capacity than almost anything else in its class. Kel-Tec equips this Tan-finished model with a side-folding pistol brace and the proprietary Jungle Clip system, which locks two magazines together for a combined 100 rounds without a reload. The threaded 9.6-inch barrel and optics-ready slide make it easy to add a suppressor or a red dot for range work or home defense, and the folding brace lets shooters compact the pistol from 28.3 inches down to 18.6 inches for storage or transport. Built for shooters who want maximum 5.7x28mm capacity in a single platform, the KP50 stands out from typical high-capacity pistols.
