Overview

The Kel-Tec PMR-30 is a unique semi-automatic pistol chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire that holds 30 rounds in a double-stack magazine, giving it the highest standard capacity of any rimfire pistol in production. It uses a hybrid blowback and locked-breech operating system with a light polymer frame and a 4.3-inch barrel, weighing just 13.6 ounces unloaded despite its formidable capacity. The fiber optic sights and accessory rail make it suitable for target shooting, small game hunting, and trail defense, while the .22 WMR cartridge provides significantly more energy than standard .22 LR at longer ranges. The PMR-30's combination of lightweight design, extraordinary capacity, and the fireball-producing .22 WMR cartridge has made it one of Kel-Tec's most popular and polarizing products.
