Many talk about pocket pistols and then recommend pistols that are really unfriendly to pocket carry. First we need define pocket (cargo or jean), there’s a big difference. For a 380 jean pocket pistol in 380 it’s hard to beat the little cheap KelTec. For cargo pockets the list is long and includes small revolvers and semi auto’s in calibers stouter than 380.
“It’s hard to beat the little cheap KelTec”
My nephew has a Kel-Tec and he’s had a lot of problems with it, he has sent it back to the factory twice, maybe three times, tried different types and brands of ammo and still The Kel-Tec remains a persistent piece of garbage. I’ve been to the range with him on many occasions and the Kel-Tec always, without fail, jammed, or worse, failed to fire, even after being to the factory on separate occasions.
I would not recommend, nor trust a Kel-Tec based personally witnessing its failures.
