(GunReports.com) — Gun Tests Magazine Publisher Timothy H. Cole recognized Kel-Tec’s PMR-30 22 WMR as the publication’s “Best in Class Pistol” for 2011 at the just-concluded SHOT Show in Las Vegas. Cole made a special award to Derek Kellgren, Kel-Tec CNC Industries’ Director of Marketing at the show. The pistol joins a Ruger LCR wheelgun, an AR-style 300 Whisper from SSK Industries, a 12-gauge autoloading shotgun from Legacy Sports International, and a laser/light combo accessory from Crimson Trace as the magazine’s “Best in Class” 2011 honorees. “Our accept-no-advertising policy gives us the freedom to choose guns that simply work well,” said Gun Tests Publisher Timothy H. Cole. “The ‘Best in Class’ winners exhibit the traits we prize — accuracy, reliability, tight fit and finish, handsome cosmetics, and value for the dollar.” The exact test model was the Kel-Tec PMR-30 No. 408320267 22 WMR, originally reviewed in the November 2011 issue of Gun Tests. The PMR-30 semiauto holds 30 rounds of 22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire cartridges in the magazine. The slide and barrel are made of 4140 steel housed in a 7075 aluminum frame. The grip, slide cover, trigger, mag release, and safety levers are glass-reinforced Zytel nylon, much like other Kel-Tec pistols. Other features include dual opposing extractors, heel magazine release, dovetailed aluminum front sight, Picatinny accessory rail under the barrel, urethane recoil buffer, captive coaxial recoil springs.

HaHa i said 10 shots, i wish! I meant 8rounds.. My first revolver, hope this is the beginning of many more. Shoots .357 or 38s rounds. Comes with a rotating saftey lock on the hammer for safe keeping.
Another Nunfancy 2010 SHOT Show adventure! An in-depth hit on all things Smith and Wesson including summaries of the M&P 15-22 .22s (the MOE version is an improvement), M&P15 rifles (the M&P 15PSX with Troy Industries TRX low profile handguard is impressive), the brand new “Bodyguard 380″ (great design it seems) and “Bodyguard 38″ line, the Performance Center revolvers, the Walther line, the S&W 1911s (I dig that 1911PD), several of the Classic revolvers, the .22s (I want the 317 Airlite but so much $$), and the excellent M&P pistol lineup (rapidly becoming another Nutnfancy favorite in my tactical shooting…smooth and fast!). So many fine firearms in the expansive booth, it was all I could do to show you what I did…lots of work and very little time to do it. S&W prices many of their guns on the high side I say but their quality is indisputable as we see again here. Most S&Ws last several lifetimes, are accurate, have enduring, well-proven designs, and give great pride of ownership. Thanks to the reps here who stepped up to another no-notice TNP booth review! ////////////////////////////////////////////// Music: www.archive.org
A video of a .22 caliber crow-magnum pellet being shot at around 800 feet per second into a melon. From the thumping sound it makes to the frontal and rear tear out blast,the crow-magnum always reck shop for sure
A video of a .22 caliber Gamo Magnum air rifle pellet being shot at 1000 fps into a mellon from about 30 feet out… Pause the video at the point of impact to see the Gamo pellet captured in flight… It looks like a beige sand colored blur of light to left of the melon… Thanks for watching…
