Description

KEL-TEC SUB-2000 RDL (Rapid Deployment Latch)

Effortlessly transition your KEL-TEC SUB-2000 from its folded position to a shooter-ready stance with the RDL. This latch's superior design ensures quick action release and a more secure locking system, made from premium, high-strength injection-molded polymer.

Essential for KEL TEC SUB 2000 enthusiasts, the RDL's one-finger operation facilitates ease of use: simply press down and pull back on the latch's side. The premium grip texture and extended rear pull tabs offer enhanced leverage and a secure pull, addressing the challenges some users faced when unfolding the Gen 2 model compared to its Gen 1 counterpart.

This latch is designed exclusively for the Gen 2 model of KEL-TEC SUB-2000 carbines across all calibers.

Crafted from a proprietary blend material, the RDL is designed to minimize wear on original equipment manufacturer (OEM) polymer parts. This polymer blend boasts impressive tensile and impact strength, as well as inherent lubricity, ensuring durability and smooth operation compared to the factory latching tab.

Deployment should be seamless and swift. With the RDL, unfolding your KEL-TEC SUB-2000 takes less than a second. Opt for superior traction, leverage, and speed in deployment, making this latch a crucial upgrade for KEL TEC SUB 2000 Gen 2 owners.

RDL - Rapid Deployment Latch
review-star review-star review-star review-star review-star
I was a bit skeptical at first, but ordered it as " the last " upgrade I "needed" for my Kel-tec K2000 9mm multi mag.
The Kel-tec is my "traveling tool" and the Rapid Deployment Latch sounded like "just the thing". The RDL arrived promptly, was securely packed, and installed in about 10 minutes afterward.
It IS "just the thing." With one thumb deployment is much easier, the lock up for storage is positive and secure. If you have a Kel-tec just BUY one. You won't be disappointed. I've installed the MCARBO Pro trigger (flat face) kit, easy. Just follow along with the video. The upgrades have certainly made it
"mission capable." Thank you
