    Default P50 reloading

    Man, I have struggled with speed reloading this thing ever since i got it. You drop the mag in, nothing holes it in place, then you have to lower the top down, and then it doesn't line up right, and doesn't close all the way, then you have to open it up, and reseat it.

    Well, I just figured out how to actually reload, it's fast as hell, and quite easy, and locks into place every time, you don't have to be gentle with it.

    The wrong way:



    The right way, stick it in the top, slam it down to the bottom, perfect every time:

    Just make sure your hands/fingers are clear of the bottom of the mag. Pinched myself trying to fast load my P50. Not fun.

    This is good info. FYI, Keltech does make a metal clip, that goes on the front of the P-50, that helps line the magazine up*.but even with it, your method is best!

    Not surpised they make the clip to line it up. Even so, laying it in the bottom, every time i'd close it I would wonder if i actually got it completely closed. With the mag in the top section, slam it, no question if it's in.

    Nice can, which one is that?

    Shooting 5.7x28mm, even subsonic, is not hearing safe through a suppressor.

And shooting subsonic 5.7 removes the one thing the round needs to perform - speed.
