KelTec may have single-handedly opened up the civilian 5.7×28 mm market with its introduction of the P50, a semi-automatic pistol that utilizes the 50-round magazine of the FN P90. The innovative and affordable firearm (the 2022 winner of an NRA Golden Bullseye Award for Tactical Product of the Year) kicked off a wave of 5.7 mm firearms designed specifically for the civilian market. KelTec themselves expanded its 5.7 mm lineup with the R50 rifle version, along with the smallest 5.7 mm handgun on the market, the PR-57. Now KelTec is taking its 5.7 mm offerings in a radically new direction…

I’ve carried a pocket pistol for years, but rarely as my primary defensive tool. For me, it’s always been more of a backup—the kind of firearm that lives quietly in the margins of a daily carry system, present but never the centerpiece. It’s there for when the fight is closer than comfort, when my strong hand is tied up or when my primary handgun is no longer an option. In today’s market, I find pocket pistols less appealing than I did five years ago. That’s partly because of their inherent limitations, but also because of the rise of hard-use, micro-compact…

I’m a lifelong conservative, passionate hunter, and conservationist who believes in straightforward truths. One of those truths is that modern life depends on natural resources.

It matters for jobs. It matters for supply chains. It…
