I was reading about these somewhere on this site & now I can't find it so I need a lil help.

I had a Sub 9 years ago & didn't like it, cause it wouldn't work properly with the cheap ( all metal ) aftermarket glock 30 round mags. So I got rid of it.

Now that I'm a lil older ( & somewhat wiser hat
The Kel-tec site says that the new Sub 2000 can be had in a  G17 or a G19 mag configureation.  

I have 2 questions really ...
 1 - is the Sub 2000 any good ,  really improved over the Sub 9 ?
 2 - If I get the G19 style it'll take my G19 15 round mags & the G19 17 round mags & the 30 round factory mags too ... right ?

I believe the Sub2000 is just a polymer verison of the sub9

The G19 version will take all larger mags (17 and 32 rounders)

Go here and check out the Sub2000 section.www.ktog.org/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl

I have the Sub2000 Glock17 version and it works with any factory G17 Glock mags. I believe the Sub9 held the bolt open open on the last shot but the Sub2000s don't. Wish they would have left that feature in. My Sub2000 has been 100% reliable with all ammo and very accurate.

Thanks guys.  I do belive that I'll be looking into one ( read that as buying ) soon.

The G19 version has an awfully short grip.  I have several G19's, but my sub is a G17 model

How much shorter is the grip MRW ?  A lot ?

I like the idea of not having to worry which mag fits what.

And on an unhappy note .. I called 2 different local gun stores & was told that their suppliers were out of the Sub 2000.... the story of my life

The 17 model Sub 2K feels a lot like a Glock 19.  The model that takes the 19 mags feels a lot more like a Glock 26.  The 19 model is hard to find, KT doesn't make many of them.  From what I've read, it's pretty easy to take a 17 model and trim it down to fit the 19 mags.

And yeah, you might have a problem finding one right now.  KT seems to make them in batches, and they're in between production runs.

Thanks.  That really helps.  I'll be looking for a G17 set up now.
