He is talking about the smith and wesson fpc. Folding pistol carbine. He is comparing it to the keltec sub2000. Very similar, but look nicer built. Only issue i see is they are only s&w mp mags. Where as the keltec can get using glock mags. ---

> [@Sudsy](#): > > Something we would go to jail for in NJ ?? I don’t think so. The Keltec Sub2000 and S&W FPC fold at the chamber not a folding stock. It can’t be fired in it’s folded position is why I think this is OK. ---

To the best of my knowledge, the Sub2000 is legal in NJ, except that the cap on the threaded barrel needs to be pinned or welded. The Gen. 3 twists when it folds to allow it to close with an optic attached, while the Gen. 2 requires a mount that can move out of the way. I have one of each, a Gen. 2 that I keep here in NJ as a “truck gun,” and a Gen. 3 with the larger mags that I keep in Florida. ---

They are legal in New Germany I bought one several years ago for my wife as a close-quarter-long gun with 9mm having its limitations on distance. ---

No they’re legal in NJ, I’m debating on getting the Gen 3 kel-tec sub2k.. it’s 200 cheaper than the S&W as well. I shot it at my range last fall had a cheap optic on it and after 2 mags I was like i need this in my life ASAP. Fun to shoot to say the least. ---
