Kel-Tec Sub 2000 Gen 3 10mm Rifle 16.1" Threaded Barrel - 15 Rd

Harness heavy-hitting magnum-class energy in an ultra-portable, packable footprint with the Kel-Tec SUB2000 Gen 3 chambered in 10mm Auto. Engineered as the long-awaited big-bore evolution of Kel-Tec's iconic folding pistol-caliber carbine (PCC), this Gen 3 platform combines devastating 10mm terminal ballistics with the unmatched utility of a rifle that folds completely in half. Whether deployed as a dedicated vehicle security carbine, a rugged backcountry defense gun against dangerous predators, or an agile home defense system, the SUB2000 Gen 3 delivers full-size velocity and carbine stability in a sub-6-pound package.

The definitive breakthrough of the Gen 3 design is its patent-pending rotating forend. Overcoming the primary limitation of earlier generations, the Gen 3 allows shooters to fold the carbine with their red dot optic, weapon light, and forward accessories fully mounted—simply twist, click, and lock into an ultra-compact 16.15-inch folded footprint. Built for seamless cross-platform logistical synergy, it feeds natively from widely available Glock® 20 pattern magazines, accepting standard 15-round sticks, extended magazines, and high-capacity drums. Outfitted with a 16.15-inch barrel threaded in 5/8x24 for suppressor or brake integration, top and bottom Picatinny rails, M-LOK slots, and tool-free takedown, the SUB2000 Gen 3 10mm sets the standard for compact firepower.
