    Got my 642 today, what ammo ?

    I went ahead and purchased a 642 S&W and want to get some ammo for practice. I went to Natcheez and see lots of acronyms like FMJ, HP, JMP and all kinds of stuff like that. I have a box of hollow points that are good quality for self defense, but want to get some decent quality but inexpensive...

    Revolver to replace my auto

    as some of you may know, i just rec'd my ccw permit and purchased a p3at for personal carry. At home, bedside, I keep a .380 semi auto relatively cheap gun (FIE) in a fingerpad safe. Though I am very comfortable with guns, i don't practice more than a few times a year, but am consistently...

    Now Licensed

    I finally went through with the permitting process and rec'd my permit today. It was surprisingly quick via the electronic fingerprint process. I had my card and permit in 2 weeks, actually a tad less than 2 weeks. The class cost $30, the picture $10 and the electronic fingerprinting and...

    Harold Fish, anyone see the Dateline feature?

    Below are a few details from the case, but Dateline did a Investigative Report which was aired last night. Interesting, but also scary. Friday, August 4, 2006 Harold Fish will spend the next 10 years of his life in prison unless the Arizona Supreme Court decides a new state law more...

    Best self defense load for p3at?

    CarBon bullets seem popular for the kel tec 380's so i may get that brand. What is the difference between the DPX and their JHP? Also, how well do you folks like Federals Hydra shok in comparison? I am going to order several different boxes of ammun, various brands, but wondered how you...

    Ammo not suitable for P3AT?

    Is there any ammo that i should stay away from with regard to my new p3at? In other words, i am learning that some ammo is hotter and I know the Kel Tec is not a heavy duty gun, so if there is some ammo that i would be better off staying away from, I would appreciate your input. For practice...

    New Kel Tec p3at w/ a problem

    I picked up my new p3at on thursday and shot it several times this weekend. The FMJ and JHP both cycled nicely but the magazine kept popping lose. I could barely get it to stay locked in. I called kel tec yesterday and they are sending a new magazine out right away. The guy said they have...

    No expansion from HP, why?

    I finally got to shoot my new kel tec p3at .380 caliber today. I shot a moderately hard packed area of sand and was surprised that when i dug the bullet up, it did not expand at all. My friend, with his 40 cal glock saw moderate expansion from his winchester HP, and huge expansion from his...

    Silencers, are they legal and easy to get in Florida?

    Saw a self defense show talking about silencers. I hate muzzle blast and thought having such a feature would be great, but don't know anything about them. I always thought they were illegal, or at the very least, required special permitting. do any of you have guns with silencers? what...

    Penalty for carrying w/o CCW?

    I am in the process of signing up for a CCW class, but want to find a good one. I will pick up my p3at later this week (already paid for), but was surprised to see an article in the paper that said the Sheriff is offering $1000 for tips leading to the arrest of various gun offenders, but also...

    Bought my P3at chrome yesterday

    but can't pick it up until monday due to cooling and not having ccw. I posted a separate post on advice for ccw training. The gun looks terrific though i have not shot it. The shop let me shoot his kel tec and it was fine. A bit jumpy, but not as bad as i expected. I was treated very...

    CCW permit process, need help

    I have called 3 or 4 gun shops and they all offer the CCW training. It's interesting, some are $30 and others are $60. Some do the finger printing on site via an on site police officer and others tell you to go to the sheriffs office during scheduled times and wait in line for the electronic...

    Laser on P3AT anyone?

    My kel tec arrives today. It was delayed due to a very limited supply, at least in my area. The local guys who do have them have bumped the prices a lot. One dealer is asking $350 for the P32 since no one in town has the 380 version. Anyway, the one that was shipped out for me last night is...

    S&W 340 PD, anyone here own it?

    I rec'd a call from the gun dealer who is awaiting arrival of my P3AT kel tec and he said he just got a 340 PD revolver in on consignment. He said it appears to have been shot only a few times and looks like brand new. They are asking $780 but said the bottom line is $625. I like this gun...

    Kel Tec just raised MSRP on the P3AT

    I ordered my p3at and expect it to arrive this week (no obligation to buy order, but it is being sent for me with a hold). Anyway, I was frustrated with two local shops that were selling for more than MSRP ($329 vs. 299 for blue). MSRP is enough, let alone msrp +. I went to the kel tec web...

    Ordering guns?

    I have had a couple of folks send me links on ordering guns that are perhaps much cheaper than in my area, but i don't know how it works. Let's say a gun is $300 here but can be purchased through Bud's Gun Shop or Gunsamerica, etc. for $235. How does it work? I suppose I pay for the gun...
