Nicholas WRM –
I had heard a lot of good things on this one when I was looking for a fairly compact 22 auto. Like a lot of KT products, it’s kind of “industrial” looking. That doesn’t bother me. What really impressed me is it cycled the slide with CCI Standard Velocity while suppressed. I put an Mcarbo trigger on it, and that is a good improvement, IMO. Hard to fault KT with much on this one. Lot of value for price, particularly if you can find it at the lower end of the price scale.

Great little plinker. Accurate.
Harvey Smith –
Shipping is fast, discreet boxing for ammo. I like that you can see a possible delivery date that is very accurate, in other words, I order on the right day, ammo gets delivered on my RDO…

This gun shoots great I have large hands and it fits just right it consistently threw brass 10 feet with a suppressor and cci suppressor loads without fail. For under 200 bucks it’s an amazing purchase my only complaint is the tan color is paint and already wearing off so if your picky just get the black

First, while I normally do buy from this company, I actually bought mine from elsewhere that had it on sale for $70 less. I love this company, but I am a capitalist. Anyway, took mine to the range for the first time. Right out of the box, I put between 200-300 rounds through this, and had maybe 5 stovepipes. Not bad for a .22 semi-auto pistol. Minor malfunction and easy to clear, and it may be better now with cleaning and having been broken in. Feels comfortable in my large hands. Very light, so while you don’t feel much recoil, there is some – just enough to make it feel like it’s real. Speaking of feeling real, the operation of this pistol feels much like a regular defensive pistol. The slide is the back where you grip it, as well as the top. This makes it lighter and more reliable with a cartridge as low powered as the .22 LR. This is a great pistol to teach someone on. It didn’t seem picky about ammo. I used some match ammo as well as bulk (Federal) ammo. Probably stick with high velocity.

I have 3 of these, one in green and 2 in black. I see where some people take about jamming problems, this is a double stack mag. so when you load it you need to load about half then tap the back of the mag on a table or bench and load the rest and after loading the last 8 tap it once again, this lines up the bullets in the mag. the way they should be. When these first came out that is what everybody was complaining about jamming and stove pipeing, and after a long period of time it was determined that there was nothing wrong with the guns it was the loading process as to where people were just loading them and not tapping the back of the mags. and the bullets were not lining up right in the mags. hence the problems that people were having. I never really had the problems because I have always tapped any mag that I was loading just because I thought it helped. I hope that this helps out the people that have been having problems. One more thing I only use high velocity ammo in all of my 22lr’s.
