No SUB-2000 reviews?

lol, common sense says somone else would do the leg work to bring us new firearms?...isnt that mind set the reason why we have a hard time getting stuff like this? people think somone else will do it lol.
 
I got mine on Dec. 23rd from Reliable Gun, 2 hours after they arrived. I've put about 300 rounds through it, it's a lot of fun to shoot. Got a little boring at the range, but it's great fun for tin cans at the local gravel pit! The gun feels deceptively solid when fired, and the accuracy is surprising. The action cycles quite cleanly, although the trigger is kinda squishy. The overall fit and finish isn't spectacular, and I'm not a fan of the only adjustment to the sights being in the front. The bore is also fairly rough, making for slightly longer cleaning times. The gun is VERY light, and there is actually a bit of felt recoil....although 9mm ain't exactly punishing. As earlier stated, it would make a great backpacking rifle and would most likely drop a deer easily....the longer barrel spits em out FAST! All in all, it's a pretty cute little "look-what-I-got!" type toy. Shoulders really well and all recoil is STRAIGHT back...you don't even lose your sighting picture. If you want something in this style, it's definately worth looking at.

Thanks for the review!
 
I'm waiting on one. Unfortunately, Gary (From Wanstalls) told me that there was a mix-up at the plant and they accidently included .40 SW mags with the glock mag models rather than the 9mm mags.

I should be able to do a review if I have the time, but it may not be a full one (IE function test) unless a Kootenays-area Gunnut can either sell or loan me a glock 17 mag...

Yeah mine came with a .40 mag, the guys at Reliable traded me for a 9mm.

Total typo. I was trying to say "it feels remarkably solid despite its deceptively flimsy appearance."

I would have tested it with 9mm. With the Storm there have been reports that the 40W&W Berretta mag will work with 13-14 rounds of 9mm. I can't confirm this, but I would have tried if it shipped with one accidentally.

Yes they do as I have shot it like that numerous times. Also Garry from Bit's of Pieces will change your barrel to give you the NoN-Res that everyone loves.
They are a little heavier than the Sub 2000 but they do have a nicer feel and the build quality is much nicer. As there is no cheap feeling about it. Also mounting optic's on the Storm is a breeze as I found the iron sight on the Sub to be sub par. The overall length on the restricted version is 29 inches with is only three inches longer than the Sub non-folded. Although when the Sub is in the firing position compared to a non-res Storm they are roughly the same length. Although like I said before I found the Storm more pleasuring to shoot. Although the price can be an issue for some because instead of a $700 rifle (that feels more like a $300 one) the Storm comes in around the $1000 mark. For more info on the Storm check out this site;

I did fire mine with the .40 mag and found that, although it cycled, the 9mm rounds were almost sticking in the opening of the .40cal mag. It works smoother with the 9mm mag.

Actually the folded sub is 18.5 inches, the longest part being the barrel.

My storm has the non restricted bull barrel. Just a heads up it adds another $550 to the price tag.

Also the storm breaks in half with the one break down peg removed. It's essentially a quick break down carbine.
