Kel-Tec P17 Kel P17Bgrnoptic 22Lr W/Optic/Hlstr Grn

The Kel-Tec P17 in .22 LR is a lightweight, ultra-compact rimfire pistol built for shooters who want a no-nonsense plinker or training tool without the bulk or price tag of centerfire platforms. This OD Green variant—paired with a Viridian RFX-11 green dot optic and holster—arrives ready to run, making it an excellent choice for recreational shooting, skill building, or just plain fun at the range. At just 14 ounces with a 3.8-inch barrel, the P17 is genuinely handheld and portable without sacrificing its 16+1 round capacity.

The polymer frame is stout enough for daily use and sports a Picatinny rail for optic mounting or aftermarket accessories. The steel slide and barrel—both finished in OD Green Cerakote with black controls—deliver that purposeful, tactical aesthetic while the serrated slide provides a positive grip in the hand. The included Viridian RFX-11 green dot eliminates the learning curve; you get a proven optic that pairs beautifully with the fiber optic front sight. Setup time is minimal: mount the optic, load the magazine, and get to work.

The P17's ambidextrous safety and 3-pound trigger are designed for intuitive operation, whether you're a lefty or right-handed shooter. At this price point and with this performance envelope, the P17 is a gateway to centerfire pistol discipline or a dedicated fun gun for plinking sessions. The .22 LR round keeps shooting costs low, and the compact footprint makes it easy to store or transport. If you're building a training battery or just want a reliable, accurate rimfire that doesn't pretend to be something it's not, the P17 delivers honest value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the P17 come with a holster and optic, or are those sold separately?

Both are included in this bundle. The Kel-Tec P17 ships with the Viridian RFX-11 green dot optic (mounted and ready) and a holster, so you can get out of the box and into the action without additional purchases.

Can I add a suppressor to the P17?

Yes. The barrel is threaded 1/2x28, a standard pattern compatible with most .22 LR suppressors on the market. A suppressor on a rimfire is a great way to reduce noise, especially during training sessions.

Is the P17 suitable for concealed carry?

At 14 ounces and just 6.7 inches long, the P17 is compact enough for appendix or ankle carry, and the included holster supports carry use. However, .22 LR is a rimfire round with lower stopping power than centerfire pistols; your choice depends on your specific carry philosophy and local laws.

Can left-handed shooters use the P17 safely?

Yes. The P17 features an ambidextrous safety, making it equally accessible to right- and left-handed shooters without modification.
