FAB Defense KPOS Glock Carbine kit....
Has anyone seen this? I know it's not exactly the newest thing around, I'm pretty sure it was debuted at this year's SHOT Show...
I carry a carry a Glock 19, and I would love to just keep this thing hidden in the car somewhere. I was watching a couple videos of it in action, want. I've seen some deals on the internet where it's selling for ~$400.
Sig owners... they make one for you too!
Here's a great video review by DoubleTapper -

PS: I spent a good 3-4 minutes debating on posting this in the NFA section, since technically once you purchase the kit you have to register your glock as an NFA...

Gimmicky. I would rather reach for a real carbine instead of a transformer kit for a pistol (Megatron was a pistol at one point in my childhood, a pistol with a shoulder stock).
But that is just my opinion...Join the groups protecting your rights from the fools trying to take them from you!

Gotta go with Steve on this one. You don't gain much if any performance with the kit, save a steadier shot.
By the time is all is said and done, the price of the kit, the nfa bills, you could buy a very nice carbine. In a rifle caliber too. Or 9mm if you really want.Selling off a a sizeable Spyderco collection here

The $400 maybe, but then the $200 on top, naahhh. You could get a 9mm upper for an AR that I don't have yet. If they offered a longer barrel to swap in I might reconsider. The supressor idea is a great one, too.
A Kel Tec Sub2K is around $300 and it takes Glock mags........ just sayinLast edited by FLICK; June 12th, 2010 at 08:27 AM. Reason: More amazing ideas

Re: FAB Defense KPOS Glock Carbine kit....
why the hell does he sling it?
no manual safety on a slung weapon is a bad day waiting to happen.
And that video is far from impressive, I didnt see there groups, but from watching how they shot I know all I need to that they wherent one holes shooting that slow. I see GLOCK shooters at matches shooting 2-3x's the speed and rocking shot placement all the time.
Its an expensive gimmick that essentially takes away all the advantages of a handgun without giving you the ballistic advantage of a rifle.
The sub2k rifles are great for this role. Cheap, fun, great on steel, lightweight, has a manual saftey (not like anyone ever goes around with a slung sub, but still.....).
WAy too much money for a toy with limited use.
If it wasnt for the paperwork and $$$ Id be tempted. And I prob shoot it for funnsies for a little while and then get rid of it.
