I'll pick one up when prices fall below MSRP, but not at a 25% markup.

I was seriously tempted at the last show for one at MSRP. BUT....I heeded my inner-child that insists on never paying retail, and giving new guns some beta-trial time in the market.

I've thought it interesting for $399 less normal discount. No way with added markup.

Over MSRP?!? I'm guessing other folks are interested enough that demand is greater than supply.
Not in a hurry. But I remain interested.

Really pissed me off when I saw folks going over MSRP. I “lucked” into one at 399, and five minutes later they bumped the price to 500. Anywho, it’s pretty awesome (for a KelTec), nice hammer trigger….lightweight, great recoil. Solid so far, only 100 rounds through it. I put a Holosun on it…..really looks like a space gun lol

Not that I am dismissing it but I just don't see the appeal in it,unless you are in a state in which you only allowed to get certain guns due to capacity, magazines,etc.. The Ruger 57 is $400 in many places and seems like the better deal.

Not sure if this qualifies as a necro-thread resurrection but I started it a while back.
Anyway, I'm starting to see some availability at MSRP and am still thinking about one.
As to why. ****************
I got the FN Five seveN, and a PS-90 long ago and so stocked up on 5.7 back in the day.
I was intrigued by the Keltek R50 in 5.7, and picked one up last year. I was a little hesitant due to the reputation of the brand but it has worked flawlessly, so I'm fine with trying their PR57.
The advantage of this over the Ruger (and I am fine with Rugers, I have several and am quite fond of them) is in the size and weight - small enough it might become a carry option for me. (well, yes there's a price advantage, too.)
The disadvantage is, of course, stripper clip vs. usual magazine reloading, but with 20+1 capacity maybe that's not a big deal. And the Ruger vs. KelTec thing, but as noted, they did such a good job with my R50 I'm past that. ********
Anyway, I'm checking back to see if folks may have picked any of these up and if so, what their experiences may have been.
