Welcome to the fold! You’re looking at the third generation of our semi-automatic carbine that folds in half, optics and all. Initially in 9mm, the SUB2000 GEN3 picks up where handguns leave off. Folded, it tucks away nicely in situations where space is limited, but it’s quick to deploy in situations where time is of the essence.
The semi-automatic SUB2000 is designed to be the most convenient 9mm caliber carbine available. It folds completely in half for easy storage and can accept G19/G17 handgun magazines. Plus, it can easily be disassembled for cleaning or inspection without tools. Ideal for backpacking trips and situations where space and convenience are paramount.
Features:
- Optics Ready
- Unlike its folding forefathers, this SUB2000 is a “put-it-on and leave-it-on” optics ready carbine thanks to its rotating forend. The simple, singlehanded movement and positive locking system keeps your optic of choice zeroed and ready to go on a moment’s notice.
- Pistol Caliber Power
- The SUB2000 offers the best of both worlds. Yes, it’s a pistol caliber, however the ballistic advantage and accuracy at distance come from the 18.5″ barrel. Barrel length translates to velocity which translates to power downrange. You’ll get the most out of your pistol ammunition right out of the box.
- Simple
- Designed with a straight blow-back system, the SUB2000 is very simple to operate and maintain. The sights are intuitive, the stock is adjustable and field stripping is a breeze.
- Modular
- The Gen3’s modularity is extended by M-LOK accessory compatibility and plenty of picatinny rail space on top & bottom. M-LOK is the standard and the SUB2000 GEN3 has enough for all of your gadgets.
- Cool, But Does it Take Glock® Mags?
- Yes! Is it a magazine catch or magazine release? Is it both? We’ll leave that up to you, but the SUB2000 GEN3 was designed with Glock compatibility in mind and that’s why we offer this awesome carbine in a G19 configuration so you can pair your favorite 9mm G19/G17 pistol with your favorite folding gun.
