I reviewed 5.7x28 ballistics awhile back when contemplating a purchase. Compared to .22 WMR, the 5.7 loses. Both are generally based around a 40 grain bullet with other loadings available for both. The 5.7 is typically loaded to 1,700 ft/sec and 250 ft-lb (at muzzle) specs, while the .22 hits 1,875/300 respectfully. 5.7 costs around $0.40 vs. $0.20 per round for .22 WMR. So .22 WMR is the winner in these areas.

However the 5.7 has a more tactical gun focus, and there are some cool options available. .22 WMR has some tactical models available, but classic revolver and lever action products are heavy focuses. I ultimately went with .22 WMR due to ammo price and availability, but would love to get some range time with this pistol - and an FN PS90 too!

I've never fired 5.7 pistols at all. I use 22LR to teach new shooters.

I wish they'd make a pocket pistol like the bobcat or pt22 in 22 mag. My EDC is a 22lr, but I'd much prefer a 22 mag. Even 17 hmr would be interesting. Id use 25 ACP but it's ungodly expensive

Looks like a cool gun. I’ve never shot a Kel-Tec

I have the Sub 2000. It's fun gun to shoot but not a replacement for an AR platform.

I carried a PF9 for awhile when I didn't know better. It was too light and small for it's own good and the build quality was very suspect. Weak polymer and shitty uncoated springs.

Keltec comes up with interesting designs, I just wish the end product was better made.

I'll stick with my FN 5.7. I used to have gen1 that I loved. Before I attempted to clean it while fishing and our boat capsized.

That whole top loading stripper clip thing is just not happening. I like my 20 and 30 round magazines.
