Never owned one but I can tell you this: Kel-Tec's are fun and cute, but that's about it. I have seen too many fail and fail bad! Go with S&W, Glock, Springfield, Walther etc. There are plenty of choices out there & yea they're more $pendy than the Kel-Tec's but how much is your hide worth?

There was a robbery in my city where 2 perp's were armed. The store owner had a Kel-Tec and used it once...then it failed after the first shot. Thankfully he wrestled the badguy's gun away & used it to good effect on both perps. Likewise, so many people buy KT's only to be disappointed in them. I've seen officers who had them for whatever reason & they just weren't all that great.

I'd stick with a known, reliable brand. Glock 26 is a solid choice, the Glock 43 is good too but single stack.
