But, as with any firearm, there’s always room for improvement. Enter the world of Kel Tec Sub 2000 accessories—a realm where you can tweak, modify, and pimp out your carbine to better suit your shooting style and needs.
In this article, we’ll dive deep into the must-have accessories for your Sub 2000, highlighting their benefits and how they can elevate your shooting game. So, buckle up and let’s get started!
1. Trigger Upgrades
1.1. Precision Match Aluminum Trigger & Trigger Guard
The stock trigger on the Sub 2000 is, let’s be honest, nothing to write home about. It’s heavy and has a bit of that dreaded “mushy” feel. Upgrading to a precision match aluminum trigger can make a world of difference. Not only does it provide a crisper pull, but it also reduces the trigger weight, enhancing overall accuracy. Pairing it with an aluminum trigger guard not only adds durability but also gives your carbine a sleek look.
1.2. Pro Performance Trigger Job Bundle
For those looking to take it a step further, the Pro Performance Trigger Job Bundle is the way to go. This comprehensive kit includes:
- Hammer Spring
- Sear Spring
- Trigger Return Spring
- Machined 6061 Aluminum Trigger
- Machined 6061 Aluminum Trigger Guard
- Set of 10 – Black Oxide Carbon Steel – 12.9 Class – Metric Screws
- Set of 5 – Black Oxide Carbon Steel – Grip Pins
- SUB-2000 Armorer’s Wrench
- SUB-2000 Assembly Dowel
- 2 – 2.5mm Allen Keys
- Loctite 380 “Black Max” Plastic to Metal Instant Adhesive
- Synthetic Grease w/ PTFE Teflon Lubricity
This bundle addresses multiple aspects of the trigger mechanism, resulting in a smoother, lighter, and more responsive trigger pull.
2. Sights and Optics
2.1. Rear Tactical Sight (Peep or Notch Style)
The factory rear sight on the Sub 2000 has its limitations, especially with its small aperture and low height, which can make aiming a tad uncomfortable. Upgrading to an aluminum rear tactical sight, available in both peep and notch styles, offers:
- Improved Sight Picture: A larger aperture allows for quicker target acquisition.
- Enhanced Durability: Aluminum construction ensures longevity compared to the stock polymer sight.
- Adjustability: Easily foldable to accommodate various shooting scenarios.
This upgrade is a game-changer for those seeking better accuracy and comfort.
2.2. Performance Services Folding Rear Sight
Another stellar option is the Performance Services Folding Rear Sight. Crafted from hard-anodized, aircraft-grade aluminum, this sight boasts:
- Larger Aperture: A .170″ sight aperture compared to the .125″ original, facilitating faster target acquisition.
- Ambidextrous Design: A skeletonized lever that can be mounted for both right and left-hand use.
- Compatibility: Fits both Generation 1 and Generation 2 models without hindering the folding feature.
Installation is a breeze, and it significantly enhances the shooting experience.
3. Magazine Enhancements
3.1. Extended Magazine Release (Glock or Multi-Mag)
The standard magazine release on the Sub 2000 can be a bit of a stretch, especially during rapid mag changes. An extended magazine release addresses this by:
- Improved Ergonomics: Allows for magazine release without altering your grip.
- Material Choice: Constructed from Delrin Acetal, it offers superior tensile and impact strength while being gentle on your magazines.
This upgrade is compatible with various magazine configurations, making it a versatile choice for many shooters.
4. Charging Handle Upgrades
4.1. Double Finger Extended Charging Handle
The factory charging handle is functional but can be uncomfortable during extended use. Upgrading to a double finger extended charging handle provides:
- Enhanced Grip: Allows for a more comfortable and secure pull.
- Reduced Perceived Recoil: The added weight can help in dampening recoil, leading to a smoother shooting experience.
This simple modification can make a significant difference in handling and comfort.
