Innovative firearms manufacturer KelTec has just announced their latest release that is both feature rich as well as affordable. The KelTec P17 pistol holds 16+1 rounds of .22LR, weighs less than 14 ounces, features a threaded barrel and has an MSRP of $199. The P17 package also adds a light/laser accessory rail, three magazines and signature KelTec styling. Although it’s not mentioned directly, the barrel threads appear to be partially covered by the slide, requiring the use of a thread adapter or extender similar to a PPK/S if you plan on running a suppressor – which I always recommend.

Additional information from KelTec can be found below.
