The Kel-Tec PMR-30 .22 Magnum pistol is a purpose-built rimfire handgun designed for shooters who want genuine firepower in a lightweight, compact package. With a flush-fit 10-round magazine and a 4.3-inch barrel, this semi-auto .22 WMR delivers the velocity and capacity of a rimfire rifle in pistol form—making it ideal for backpacking, range days, small-game shooting, and as a tack-driving alternative for home defense applications where recoil management matters.
Built on a futuristic, ergonomic platform developed by Kel-Tec's design team, the PMR-30 strips down to the essentials: a slim, lightweight receiver (14 ounces unloaded) with clean lines that don't sacrifice usability or control. The 5-pound trigger breaks predictably, and the 4.3-inch barrel is more than adequate for accurate shot placement at practical distances. The fiber optic front and rear sights are factory-installed and bright enough to acquire targets quickly in varied light, and an integrated accessory rail lets you mount a weapon light or other components for customization.
If you're drawn to .22 Magnum's ballistics—higher velocity and flatter trajectory than standard .22 LR—but tired of hunting for rifles that don't weigh a ton, the PMR-30 bridges that gap. It's a natural fit for hunters moving through brush, campers who appreciate low recoil, and shooters who simply want a reliable, accurate, high-capacity rimfire pistol that stands apart from the crowd.
