Kel-Tec P17 .22 LR Compact Semi-Auto Pistol, Threaded 4.25 in Barrel, 16+1, Black, 3 Magazines
The Kel-Tec P17 is a lightweight, American-made .22 LR compact with a fixed-barrel, straight-blowback design, a 4.25 in threaded barrel, and a 16+1 capacity. This example includes three factory 16-round magazines, ambidextrous controls, and fiber-optic/adjustable sights, all in a durable glass-reinforced nylon frame.
Notable for its very low weight at approximately 10.9 oz and practical features like an integral Picatinny accessory rail, the P17 delivers user-friendly handling in a compact footprint. Clear, easy-to-run sights and an SAO, hammer-fired action round out a feature set that stands out in a rimfire pistol at this price point (MSRP $199).

Controls are fully ambidextrous, including the paddle-style magazine release and manual safety, and the pistol incorporates a magazine disconnect. Slide grasping serrations aid manipulation.
Sights consist of a green fiber-optic front and an adjustable rear notch. An integral Picatinny accessory rail on the frame allows mounting of compatible accessories.
The frame and slide cover are glass-reinforced nylon with steel barrel/upper/bolt/trunnion components, finished in black with Kel-Tec's gator grip texture. Overall dimensions are approximately 6.7 in length, 5.3 in height, and about 1.2–1.25 in width, with an unloaded weight near 10.9 oz.
