WTF.

Hey bossman, we here at the Keltec R&D team have been working on a project. May we presemt you with the PR57.

A few of our design initiatives:

Magazines are too simple. Let's make this more laborious to load and expose any additional rounds which one may decide to carry to more pocket lint and debris.

Standard barrel designs are boringly reliable. Let's complicate things. Make every trigger pull a bit more exciting. Keltec has yet to chase off enough buyers with quality and reliability issues. We need to up the ante. We have made the design look interesting, thus, our standard fudd will be drooling over it and we may be able to bring in new buyers.

The main benefit of 5.7 is velocity. Let's neuter that advantage.

Purchasers of our products tend to be lower on the IQ scale. Let's call the lack of features a benefit and call in fine motor skills and make a statement there. Mag releases and such are simply too complicated. Users will eat that up and ignore the effort, time and fine motor skills required to actually load more rounds.

Sincerely,

Keltec R&D team

With a $399 MSRP, if the thing is reliable and accurate, they won't be able to make them fast enough.

Yeah, be interested to see when they are actually available and I’m a little concerned about that 4.5 trigger
