These warnings and instructions are provided to assure the safe functioning of the rifle. Failure to heed them may result in improper functioning and serious injury. Keep your firearm unloaded when not in use. Kel-Tec firearms are designed to function reliably with proper care and knowledgeable use.
The SUB rifle is designed and chambered for a specific cartridge. The type of ammunition is stated on the right side of the receiver. Do not use any other ammunition. Only use commercially manufactured ammunition, clean, dry, and in good condition. Never use Non-standard, reloaded or damaged cartridges. Never use ammunition where the pressure levels exceed industry standards. Kel-Tec guns are manufactured from high quality materials. They will provide extended service life.
INTRODUCTION The SUB 2000 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered for the 9 mm Luger or the .40 cal. S&W cartridge. Different versions of the SUB 2000 rifle will accept most double column handgun magazines, e.g. S&W, Glock or Beretta. By rotating the barrel upwards and back, the SUB rifle can instantly be reduced to a size of 16 x 7 inches to facilitate secure storage. The small size, light weight, and the use of a pistol cartridge would imply the prefix "sub".

Functioning At the start of this cycle the weapon is assumed already loaded, full magazine inserted, the safety off and ready to fire. When the SUB rifle's trigger is pulled, the trigger axis is rotated forward together with the trigger bar which engages the sear. The sear disengages the cocked hammer which rotates forward to strike the firing pin which in turn hits the cartridge primer igniting the powder charge.
After about 3/16 (5 mm) of bolt travel (or .0013 seconds) the bullet exits the muzzle. The pressure in the barrel has now dropped to a low level. On it's way backwards, the bolt cams down the trigger bar, ejects the empty case and cocks the hammer . The bolt is gradually slowed down by the recoil spring until stopped by the buffer. The recoil spring drives the bolt forward, the top cartridge in the magazine is picked up by the breechface and pushed into the barrel.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The normal storage and carrying condition of the SUB rifle is unloaded with the barrel folded and locked on top of the receiver. Barrel operations The barrel is held in the backwards position by a deployment lock from the stock against the front sight. To unlock, insert the key, turn it half a turn and push the buttons forward. Grip the barrel or forend and pull up. The barrel rotation is complete when engaged in position by the trigger guard.
SAFETY To achieve highest operator safety, combined with ease of handling, the SUB rifle's manual safety, when applied, positively locks the sear to the hammer and disconnects the trigger bar. As with most modern self loading rifles the safety can only be applied when the hammer is cocked. Obviously the safest condition of the rifle is folded, locked and unloaded. Also considering unauthorized operation, other modes of storing or carrying will gradually improve readiness at the cost of safety.

Firing With the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger outside the trigger guard, take aim at a safe target, put the safety into fire position and squeeze the trigger until round is fired. Release trigger and you are ready to fire another round. Upon firing, the bolt moves rearward extracting and ejecting the fired round and returns to forward position feeding another round automatically while doing so. This sequence can be repeated until the last round has been fired.
Loading To load, fill the magazine by pressing a cartridge downward on the forward portion of the magazine follower (or downward on the case of the previously loaded cartridge) and sliding the cartridge fully under the lips of the magazine until the cartridge is all the way back in the magazine. and outside the trigger guard. Insert the loaded magazine into the grip until it is locked in place. Check to assure that the magazine is secure. Pull the bolt back and release.
Disassembly Unload your SUB rifle. Make sure the bolt is in forward position, hammer cocked and on safe. We strongly discourage from unscrewing the stock collar, barrel or removing the front sight. These parts are assembled by special tools and compounds. With a cartridge or other pointed object push and then pull the stock pin (but do not remove) until the buffer is free to be removed. Assembly Turn the barrel into forward position. Put together the two bolt halves with the pin.
BALLISTICS Your SUB rifle has been test fired and sighted in at 100 yards before leaving the factory. However, due to different ammunitions, positions, shooters etc. your rifle should be zeroed to your personal preference. As seen from the graph on page 16 the bullet first crosses the line of sight at about 20 yards. This is normally sufficient, but if 100 yards are available the results should be verified at the actual range.
