The first ones off the production line had a tendency to jam a lot, which could be remedied by sending it back to the manufacturer for a tune-up, or by following some instructions available on the Web. I've heard that the problem was fixed, and that they now work fine out of the box. I've only fired mine a few times, but my local gun dealer says that several "heavy user" customers have been very happy with theirs.
For a gun that weighs about the same as a key ring with your house and car keys on it, it's pretty darn good. You'll never leave it at home because it's too bulky, and the only gun that works in an emergency is one that you have with you. Sure, if I actually had to shoot an attacker, I'd wish I had my Browning 9mm with me, but as a very small-built woman, I'm just not realistically going to carry that thing around all the time, especially when I'm jogging, which is when I'm most often alone in secluded places.

I've heard nothing bad about the P32 for reliability. Of course everybody whines about the caliber and that's why Keltec came out with the P3AT (read p380) and it's only 1/10 of an inch wider.
They make Kneck hanging holsters that you might like for when your jogging. Instead of fumbling in a fanny pack all you do is reach under your shirt and grab it and pull it down to remove it. It's like a whistle on a necklace basically. There is always the holster bra
I'd hate to mess with someone like her.

I read the same thing and always figured it to be a new-gun/production problem. Thanks for the info.
I own and regularly fire a Taurus model 66 with a 6" barrel (old style, 6 shot, compensated) and it has never failed to fire when I pull the trigger.
Thanks to all posting here. I will be first in line to get mine when Ohio joins the real world and pass a CCL. It's as close now as it's ever been, but... We have a strong contingent of pro forces that seem to push for the "perfect bill" and fail to see that ANY bill is good as long as it will get the public and police seeing no problems with people carrying. It's a lot easier to make changes to a law that is working than it is to pass the law.
Oh well, I rant. ;)
