Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The CP33 Competition Pistol uses the same operating action as the PMR30 22 Magnum introduced in 2011. A major difference is that the upper unit assembly now extends about 2.5 inches rearward beyond the rear grip strap, creating an overhang that gives the gun a futuristic look. The barrel length is 5.5 inches with a 1:14-inch twist and features an extended threaded muzzle (1/2x28 standard thread) that allows for easy installation of a compensator. The overhang creates an 8.75-inch iron-sight radius and provides 7.5 inches of Picatinny-style rail for mounting optics. The iron sights consist of a fully adjustable rear with two red fiber-optic inserts and a removable front blade with a green fiber-optic rod for a three-dot sight picture.

The CP33 is built on a polymer frame and weighs 24 ounces empty. Its overall length is 10.6 inches and 1.7 inches at its widest point. Operating controls consist of a left-side slide release and ambidextrous thumb safeties. A non-reciprocating charging handle cycles the bolt, and the slide locks back after the last round. The magazines are clear plastic with side cut-outs and hold 33 .22 LR rounds. They are the same fore and aft dimensions as the .22 Magnum models on the PMR30, longer than needed, but Kel-Tec uses the extra length to create an integral feed ramp. The magazine release is heel-style. The magazines don’t drop free and require a conscious effort to remove, which may not be considered a drawback for rimfire pistol competition. The operating action is hammer-fired, which is a plus with the tougher brass rim primers on rimfire ammo.
