I have owned few KelTec's through the years. P32, P3AT, PF9. P11(2), S2K/Glock. Still have the PF9. No problems with any.
They have great ideas, but can't produce them at a rate that's conducive to success
Can't produce them at a rate that satiates the market would be more accurate. KT is quite successful, and is actually the 3rd largest handgun maker in the USA, after Ruger and S&W.
Fair enough, but that's still like finishing 3rd to Secretariat in the 1973 Belmont Stakes.
I have a Kel Tec PF9.
I can carry my Kel Tec as well.
Now here is the disadvantage - the gun hurts! Shooting it is like hi-fiving a hammer.
[I had constant complaints from Kel Tec buyers, relating to everything from PF-9s to KSGs. 3 consecutive KSG sales lead to customers sending them to Kel Tec for fixes, and that's a drop in the bucket.]
Compared to what exactly?
I have had 3 keltec's(one rifle,two pistols).
Not a single issue with any of them.
My quick opinion about them is Great guns,Innovative design(copied by others),too small of an operation to supply the demand.
Did KT come out with the P32/P11 before Ruger came out with the LCP/LC9?
I bought my PF9 in early 2007. They were introduced at the SHOT show that year. LC9 came out in 2011. The P3AT was introduced in 2004 and the LCP in 2008.Hm, this conversation makes me question. Did KT come out with the P32/P11 before Ruger came out with the LCP/LC9? I had always assumed that they were independent designs, but I have only been paying attention to stuff like that very recently. Does anyone know who had the original design?
