I have a Kel Tec P3AT .380 caliber pocket pistol. I suppose it gets the job done but it was a total pain to shoot at the range because of the unavailability of .380 ammunition and the form of the gun (small size, big caliber = heavy recoil).

I decided that if I wanted a gun that I could feel comfortable saving my life with, I’d have to shoot it often, so I got the Glock 26 subcompact 9mm handgun. Not really a pocket pistol and a lot heavier than my P3AT, but still a small gun.

Couldn’t be happier. 9mm is incredibly inexpensive and prevalent, I can fit 10+1 rounds in it (expandable up to 33 rounds if I wanted to get ridiculous), and I shoot it every week.

But if you still want the pocket pistol, the P3AT is a decent gun.

Dan Nunn - Sure agree with your comments on the P3AT. We have 4 of them. Each one has the Crimson Trace lasers installed and they all have the DeSantis pocket holsters. They are not friendly to shoot, but we are trained to point and shoot right where the red dot is. Strictly a short range, low cost weapon, that is not friendly to shoot. But ---- They are there - where and when we want and need them!
