I got a used Kel-Tec Sub 2000 a few months ago and it hasn’t fed a complete magazine without a FTF yet. It’s a 9mm that takes the S&W mags. I have the original Mec-Gar as well a S&W factory 20 rounder and some aftermarket mags but they all do the same thing.
The round nose bullets feed about 90% of the time which is a pain but OK for plinking but not nearly good enough for a defense carbine. The JHP’s feed 0.0% of the time. They all get hung up on the small feed ramp cut in the bottom of the chamber. This ramp is cut 0.043 deep. I think by putting a little more slope on the ramp it will help it feed better, however, I don’t want to get it too deep and risk having too much of an unsupported case wall. Would you guys with Sub 2k’s please check the depth of you your feed ramps and let me know how deep they’re cut?
I don’t want to send it back to the factory if a little grinding and polishing will take care of it.
