Anybody own one? I’m curious the pros and cons real life from the CFF community.

I have a p32 for…well when I need to carry a p32 but aside from that not a KelTec guy.

But I am developing a healthy 22lr habit. The kids getting more and more into shooting with me and the suppressor makes it even more enjoyable. I have plenty of 22 hosts but they are like good tater chips…. So…

It’s just got me curious. Is it all the fun it could be or does it swap all of the could be fun for poor quality/performance and regret?

Yes, I like my CP33, I added the +15 magazine extensions, the TandemKross Maverick magazine grip and the speed loader.
I did have lots of FTF and FTE using the very waxy Winchester boxed ammo. Runs great with CCI and Blazer and I run it suppressed.
See the last sentence in my signature. :)

I have one. I added a farrowtech brace to it and shot it exclusively suppressed. I'm moving away from semi auto 22s and going to a bolt gun next but for dipping my toe back in the rimfire water I liked the gun overall.

Pro:
Disassembly was/is a breeze - far easier then other 22 pistols in my experience
Magazine capacity (Obviously)
Aftermarket support
Appreciate the MLOK support
Factory equipped range adjustable fiber optic sights at a sub $500 price point
It's not a S&W Victory

Cons:
In my experience it was not a fan of solid copper or longer OAL 22 LR ammo
You have to be diligent loading it. Minor gripe but if you get caught in a hurry and miss stack rims it's a pain in the rear correcting it and will ruin a range session
Its got the stereotypical keltec manufacturing principles- aka its got more exposed screws than a hardware store

I think for the price point you can't go wrong and, to date, it was the only 22 I could shoot fast enough to make my deadair mask too hot to touch. I think it it's also nice that it's not just another Ruger MKIV clone or an AR derivative
 
I had one, braced it and it was a blast. Ran all the cheap bulk pack 22lr I fed it, never had any real issues with it. I ended up selling it after I built a CMMG pattern AR pistol though.
 
I got the itch to get one of these recently and I think I’ll be adding one to the inventory very soon. I currently have a PMR30 and it is a literal blast to shoot; I’ve had zero issues with mine and is one of the most fun guns I have to shoot.
