Just like any gun, if you like it, and you can shoot it well, and you will actually carry it, then it's a good gun. My CHL instructor has one and swears by it, but says that while his wife has one, she shoots it, but hates the recoil. I shot it, it's snappy but not unmanageable.

I had a P3-AT. I liked it but the cost of 380 ammo was a bit too much for me. The cost for 380 ammo is coming down so I many pick another one up. It's a great summer carry. You hardly feel it. Recoil is snappy. Not a gun you want to shoot more than 50 rounds at a time. The sights are poor but there are laser options for the Kel-Tec and the Ruger LCP which is pretty much a clone. Mine functioned perfectly. Trigger was a long pull but you got used to it. I really miss it. IMO it is a great gun.

I have a P-3AT with a Crimson Trace laser and I carry it in a Crossbreed Mini Tuck holster. Loaded with Hornady Critical Defense 90gr FTX.
When I carry it under just a t-shirt nobody knows it.
At first I asked people that know I carry to check to see if they could see it and nobody could. Now I don't worry about it and sometimes forget that its even there.
The P-3AT hasn't had any problems, the CT laser keeps it on target, the Crossbreed is great.
I have other carries but for a t-shirt day this works.

I have 2 P3AT's and a P11.
One of the P3AT's is in my pocket all the time--usually not as primary carry but as a back up.
I haven't carried the P11 in awhile just because I've been carrying something else.
All of them shoot just fine and are great for what they are--a self defense gun.
Not good range guns and not really fun to shoot and I think that KT had to work extra hard to make a trigger that bad on the P11 but...
I like them for what they are designed to do--small and easily concealed and they work

My son and i both have one and both work very well not a target gun but a nice backup. I do not thank you could go wrong with one.

KEL-TEC makes wonderful products. Can't wait for the new PMR30 to come out. Should be a great target, varmint gun! I am also considering carrying it for CC as it is a 22 WMR with a 30 round capacity.

I've had Kel-Tec's for a long time. Let's see...I have two P11's, a P40, A P11 with a 357 sig conversion, a PF9, a P32, a P3AT and a Sub 2000 9mm with Beretta mags. I have a PMR30 on order waiting on their release. I'm also looking for a RFB but haven't been able to find one. For the money, customer service and lifetime warranty you can't beat a Kel-Tec!

i had a p3at and sold it to a friend..i dont know why i did that cuz i miss it..put many rounds thru it with no problems at all..just kinda uncomfortable to fire cuz its so small..keltec is worth the $ and would buy another

I picked up a used P11 at Cabelas for $100. It had some surface rust and pitting on the exterior of the slide, along with some light rust on the underside of the slide and inside the barrel and feed ramp. A little rust/blue remover and a lot of sanding and polishing and it turned out pretty good looking.

A good thorough cleaning and it's good as new. I've put about 300 rounds through it so far with no problems whatsoever. I had never intended to buy a Keltec because of the mixed reviews I've read. Granted, they have a great reputation for customer service, but I don't want to have to send it away for repair to begin with. Well, for $100 I couldn't resist. Now I'm glad I bought it and would not hesitate to buy another one.

One of these days, I'll get a picture of it uploaded.
