Any bad experiences with Kel-Tec P3AT? I read an online review, which may be out-dated, says it jamed a lot. I don't find many negative reviews for anything if the manufacture provide the gun for review. So I can not image how much it jamed for the reviewer to say that. As I said, the review is old. I am looking for current experience. Also any experince with desert eagle micro?

none with keltec, but saw, felt the desert eagle, didnt shoot it though. It does feel quite well made, the only thing, big hands and small guns dont mix. quite a few people have the slide rip the top of their hand.. =)

I've shot my friend's P3AT a bunch of times. It's a lot of fun, certainly not a target gun, but it hasn't ever jammed or had a FTF / FTE / any other problems.

 

We did take it apart and do a slight 'fluff and buff' to just clean up some mold marks / casting marks, but it's all part of the fun.

 

The Ruger LCP is almost an indentical, part-for-part clone of the Kel-Tec, but the fit and finish seem nicer.

I had a 3AT would jan every 2-3 rounds. Tried different ammo and 2 trips to Keltec and still did not get through one magazine without multiple jams. Dealer took it back and gave me a full refund. I suggest looking at the DE. Me personally I will never buy another Keltec product.

I have read on their web site that you suppose to 'fluff and buff' the gun when it is new. Basically is to sand the parts to get the them smoother. I don't know why they can't make the the gun so the users do not need to do that. I decide not to get it.

      The Tax Man Commeth

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
