I bought the gun and I feel safer with it. The laser will allow me to fire accurately from any position. ie: from the hip, etc.. The trigger pull takes some getting used to at the firing range but once you got it you are deadly.

I polished the feed ramp as I do with most of my new guns since I hate jams, this gun hasn’t jammed yet.

The price was a bit high but then again if it saves my life or a family members life then $600 is nothing. I love how it stores easily in my pocket next to my car keys and is the size of my cell phone. Best of all it is always available to prevent a car jacking of my wife and kids and I know it will fire.

I’ll listen to Savage maybe once a month, before I realize it and change the station. I also have a regular P3AT ($209) and Crimson Trace Lasergrip ($129). I just think commemorative guns should be legendary, iconic guns like 1911′s, Smith and Wesson and Colt revolvers, beautiful shotguns, etc. Not utilitarian guns like the P3AT or a Glock.

I bought this gun ) Love it… and 380 and 9mm are similar.. the 380 is just shorter… definitely a lot easier to carry then my Kahr CW9 or Glock 23… and Kel Tec makes some decent guns for the money… wish they would just produce them faster!

MY COMMENTS ABOUT THE KEL-TEC ARE ALREADY POSTED ABOVE BUT AS TIME HAS PASSED AND THE NEWS OUT OF WASHINGTON CONTINUES TO OUTRAGE MANY, I HAVE A QUESTION. ARE THERE ANY OBAMA SUPPORTERS READING THIS WHO STILL FAIL TO SEE WHAT THIS RADICAL IS DOING TO THIS COUNTRY?
IS HIS SMILE, CHARM AND DECEPTIVE RHETORIC STILL FOOLING ANYONE?

ARE WE LIVING THE OLD SAYING “…YOU CAN FOOL SOME OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME”

Michael Savage gets my blood boiling sometimes also but we need every gun rights advocate we can get especially ones that bark the loudest.
Savage does it with a loud voice. If any far left barker would partner with Kel Tec, I am sure they would take it into consideration if it would sell guns. Look at the other countries that have gone socialist. They lost their
gun rights. The Democrats are doing their best to divide everyone for then they can take everything away.. you will be marching your neighbor into the gas chamber… it is only a few steps away
Please…. Please…. Please.. Think..
Please stand together… not Black, White, Red, Brown.. We all want the same thing.. Freedom

Why do you have to be haters? Seems to me that Savage being a Botanist and Author of many medically influenced books and articles besides those expressing politiacal views has most on this blog scared.
He’s a man with a genius IQ who just happens to not be a Liberal. The gun is overpriced but I believe we still have the right to choose to pay that much for a gun before Obama puts a stop to us owning one at all.
As for political. It’s not that Liberals are stupid. It’s just that they know so much that isn’t true. Said by Ronald Regan.

For that money you can buy two (2) Ruger LCPs. And the laser is a joke. 9 out of 10 times if you have to use it you’re going to be squeezing the crap out of that thing and point shooting not bothering with looking at a dot on someone. Don’t get me wrong, I think the KT is a great concept. They shoud have made it all stainless to really stick out in the market and ditched the laser and then they would have been able to justify the price.

gary…..
its hard to change your birth name without sounding like you are 50, soooo…. barb it is.
i did take gun apart and clean and oil well. took it back to the range and it did alot better, i only put 4 clips through so about 24 rounds. I guess when gun shop owners sell you a gun as your first carry gun they should explain that to you. I have 2 other guns and never had a problem with them. i was just looking for a carry gun that would do more damage than my 25, and i think this one will work.
fred….I have small hands and i agree you do need a firm grip, i need more practice with this gun i am sure, but, 24 rounds at a time it may be a while before i am a sharpshooter…..LOL
thanks guys! :0)

I’VE NEVER HAD A MALFUNCTION OF ANY KIND WITH MY LITTLE KEL-TEC ALTHOUGH I HAVE HEARD ABOUT SOME. MY FIRST REACTION TO ANY STOPPAGE IS THAT THE SHOOTER MAY BE “LIMP WRISTING THE GUN.
THIS IS A SMALL PIECE THAT DOESN’T PERMIT A FULL FIVE FINGER HOLD AND IT IS VERY LIGHT AS WELL. THESE FACTORS MAKE IT ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT TO USE A FIRM HOLD – ESPECIALLY FOR THE RECOIL SENSITIVE SHOOTER.

Barbie… First of all, a 380 and a 9mm are too different to even talk about in the same comment. 100 rounds? This is a “back-up” gun, not something anyone would have as an every day carry! Clean it out and try again (if the thing hasn’t over heated from the hundred rounds!)… Try 3 sets of 3 rounds at a time at 10 yards. Oh, and change your name! (LOL)

I was stupid enough to buy this gun, it is my first 380 and the shop owner praised it. Obviously he has never shot this gun! I put 100 rounds through it and the gun jammed about every 3-4 rounds. i sure wish i read reviews on this gun before i bought it. If anyone wants to try it out i got one for sale! i shot my husbands 9mm Ruger and it shot like a DREAM!

I just picked up this pistol, forgot where I heard about it, oh yeah the Savage Nation. I enjoy Michael on long commutes home and who cares if he has hard-lined ideas. Welcome to AMERICA

As for the P3AT I was looking at the Ruger LCP and the NAA Guardian in .32…actually I had a NAA Guardian in .32 but sold it at a show. So I was back in the market for a compact carry for NYE.

I want a laser sight on my carry because it makes good sense. I respect the RKBA and if this paints me as a right wing nut-job…oh well. I’m probably more Libertarian than most because I took the time to READ.

Do your research and check out youtube.com for some good P3AT reviews and commentary. Lots of good folks out there that fill the roll of sheepdogs in a world full of sheep.

I heard the Michael Savage radio spot about this Keltec P3a commemorative .380 handgun just as everyone else did and I am not knocking it, I would rather have the P3′s bigger brother,the PF-9 which is 9mm and holds 7+1(8) rounds for under $400.This gun is still small enough to easily conceal and it fits my rather large hands better too.I can always fit it with this universal laser site I have.I already have a WWII Commemorative Colt .45 1911 anyway.With all that said,If one wants to blow $600 on this p3a hey it’s a free country.(let’s keep it that way)As for Michael Savage,I don’t care if he pitches this gun.LOve him or hate him,(I find him entertaining)He is his own man who is so conservative he makes Rush Limbaugh look like a liberal!! When it comes to Borders,Language and Culture though ,Savage is right on!!

Hi Walt, Savage is a conservative radio talk show host. He always speaks highly of police officers . He donates money to represent them in law suit’s and sends money to their family’s when one falls in the line of duty. Example the loss of brave officers in the city of Oakland, shot by a crazed gunman..
SAVAGE DEVOTED MANY HOURS TO EXPOSE UNFAIR CONTROLS PUT ON YOUR FELLOW POLICE OFFICERS ,WHEN MAKING AN ARREST !! tHUS PUTTING THEM IN HARMS WAY, AND RESULTING IN the DEATH OF SEVERAL GOOD MEN…
SHOT WITH NO MERCY, BY A RAPIST AND STREET THUG… He is not always right in his views but does love this country and our right to carry arms and legally protect our families.. Borders, Language and Culture is his motto…

I own 2 Kel Tec’s, a P3at and a PF9, one of them is my pocket whenever I’m out of my house. I’m a retired cop that carried a sidearm for 40 years, I’ve got Colt’s, Smith’s, Browning’s in wheel guns and autos. Now I choose to carry the Kec Tec. These guns are no more than damn fine tools, they do the job that they’re designed to do, every time. They are inexpensive and high quality. They’re not sexy, not pretty, but they’re in my pocket to protect me and mine, not to boost my ego. I recently heard about the 1791 Freedom P3, I promptly ordered one and intend to just tuck it away for my grandkids. Who in hell is Mike Savage and why does anyone care about him when making a gun purchase decision?

The above comments are very revealing to me. I never expected so many left leaning individuals would be savage listeners. Mike may speak with passion but one should not deny his insights. He sees through that which fools far too many – there is no other way to explain Obama’s election. No other way. By the way, Savage didn’t inform me about the issues. I was aware of the same things he spoke (and continues to speak) about – I am astonished that so many intelligent people do not see what is so obvious to me. Well, it’s obvious to Savage too.
As for KELTEC, I already own one and can vouch for its reliability and accuracy. If nothing else, it is an easy way to carry some protection wearing summer clothes.
I also have a laser sighted carry gun and must admit that it not only provides the shooter with confidence and speed in all lighting situations but is very intimidating to any would be assailant. That red dot on a bad guy’s chest will quickly change his mind!

I like to listen to Savage… I, at one time, thought of him as an ass that just liked to blurt out anti left crap. I’ve come to learn that what Mike says is true and to the point. For those that think of him as I once had, give him some time and you will learn to understand that he is not the blowhard that you may first think, but a man that says it like it is… The Truth, Like It Or Not… He Tells The TRUTH! Regarding the Kel-Tec, I bought one for my wife a few years ago and she and I both love it… Great gun, even without the laser sight. I carry a S&W CS .45 because the Kel-Tec is too small for my needs.

I dont like the font. I dont like Savage. But I do like the pistol. And I like most of Savage’s positions.

Looks like I’m 2 for 2. Maybe I’ll just buy the pistol without the font and still listen to Savage but continue to think he is a narcasist jerk.

Thats the ticket!
