The Kel-Tec PLR-16 (Pistol, Long Range) gives the shooter the a .223 rifle in a compact pistol/PDW design.
This weapon is small enough to be carried in a leg holster. The nice thing about the Kel-Tec is it lets the shooter use the same magazine in both an AR and this gun so you don’t have to buy all new magazines if you want more than what comes with the weapon.
The PLR-16 uses both the multi-lug rotating bolt design and breech-locking system similar to the AR-15 with a gas piston system like that of the AK-47 and M-14.
