Here are my Kel Tecs...a PF-9 and a P-32 ( shown with belt clips attached )


Image


The Kel-Tec PF-9 is a 9 mm caliber, recoil operated, locked breech, double action only, semi-automatic pistol based on (and sharing many parts with) Kel-Tec’s earlier P11 and P3AT models. Kel-Tec claims the PF-9 is the flattest and lightest 9 mm pistol ever mass-produced. It was designed as a concealment and backup weapon for law enforcement and for civilian concealed carry. Kel-Tec first released the PF-9 into the market in the fall of 2006.

The P-32 operates on Browning's short-recoil principle. The barrel travels a short distance rearward while locked to the slide and the rear is then tilted down and unlocked from the slide through the action of a cam slot. The slide then continues rearward under inertia, extracting the spent case from the chamber and ejecting it. This design closely follows the Browning Hi-Power design. After the slide reaches the limit of its travel, the compressed recoil spring moves it forward again, stripping a new round from the magazine into the chamber. The cam slot and take-down pin move the chamber upward and the locking lugs on the barrel reengage those in the slide. Kel Tec first released the P-32 in 1999.

The PF-9 pictured above also has a Laserlyte Subcompact FSL-1 (v1) Laser attached.

I bought my Mom a two-tone P32 a few years back, but haven't owned a KelTec myself. My birthday's comin up in a month and it looks like the wife has finally given up on getting me anything non-firearm related. This time around she just asked what gun or gun part I wanted! After the Springer Mil-Spec she bought me for our anniversary I figured I'd go easy on her. I've had my eye on the new Coyote Brown PF9 for a few months now and when my LGS got one in it sealed the deal. We picked it up this afternoon...

KelTec did a great job on the finish with this little booger and it's got a great feel to it. Can't wait to get out to the range and put a few hundred rounds down range. This will definitely end up in the carry rotation once I get it properly broken in...

Here are the Kel Tec PF-9's that I bought my wife and daughter for Christmas.

They are chambered in 9mm and hold 7+1. Both were fluffed & buffed...taken to the range and I personally put two hundred rounds downrange through each before giving them as gifts. A few boxes of UMC ammo, a bore snake, and a large bottle of CLP were put into their stockings. Truly a "Shooter's Holiday"... ;)
