    Default kel tec p32

    I recently bought a used p32 and was wondering if anyone had one and what they thought of it. So far i I think it is very well made and shoots as well as it should for having such a short barrel. It has not jammed or failed to eject. The only thing I don't really like about is that it will not eject a live round; if you want to unload it you have to use a knife tip to pop the round out. I do not know if this is something I am going to have to live with or not. Any opinons would be great. Thanks

    Never had one, but I haven't heard to much bad stuff about them.

    Is the ejecting issue like that because that's how it's designed?

    I have a KelTec P3AT .380 - same/same except for the caliber. I love mine, carry it most often of anything because of it's size. I have fired several different types of ammo without any difficulties. When I unload, I drop the mag and rack the slide, the chambered round comes out no problem. I got a Number 1 Uncle Mikes inside the pocket holster - just the ticket.

    I think Kel Tec has a lifetime warrenty like Taurus - might want to give them a hollar - and check out the Kel Tec owners website too.

    Those things are way to accurate to be that small.

    Thanks guys

    When I unload it I pull the clip and rack the slide but the live round is just too long. I have tried 2 differant types of ammo same results.
    I'll call kel tec this week and see what they say.

    Thanks

    I went to Barrow Hardware in Butler, Georgia Saturday, and Bo Barrow had some in stock for $229.00. In fact, that is what he carries in his store as his carry gun. He reached in his shirt breast pocket, and drew it in an instant.You would never know it was there, it is so slim.Bo also mentioned that the .380 version, is just as small,however, it's magazine holds only 5 rounds, versus 6 in the .32. Some would say either one is a popgun, but with ammunition such as Corbon available today, it is a much more potent round. One last thought, there are places where it wouldn't be practical to pack a bigger pistol, but you could have your .32 or .380, and at least have a chance.

    Like some on here may even know I have a 380 Lorcin one of the old cheap ones and it packs a big whopper when shot ....
    Funny thing is I have way over a 1000 rounds thur the tube and it still holds it's weight shooting Just can't use a hollow point in them They hate the hollow point.....

    I know a guy who's carried the P3AT for six years since it was made and he trusts it.

    I like the nine, never bought one myself though. I'm not a DAO person.

    I love the size and idea of the weapons, but the .32 is not my favorite flavor.
