The Kel-Tec PR57 is a semi automatic pistol manufactured by Kel-Tec. The weapon is chambered in the FN 5.7x28mm round, uses a rotating barrel locking operation and most unusually, uses an internal magazine fed from stripper clips (similar to the Steyr M1912 and the Grendel P10 .380).[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
