  1. Everytime i get someone to tell me my P32 is too small to kill or even hurt someone, I always offer to let them test it. Never had any takers.
  2. Here i'll make it easy for you. I found the link i used to join the NRA a few months ago after i got my carry permit to help fight for the casue. It's a offical $10 off link and they will give you a coupon in the mail in your packet to get a second year for $10 off also. https://membership.nrahq.org/forms/signup.asp?CampaignID=XP019286 $25 for a year just to try it out. Heck the Free Hat and the year of the magazine was worth it (i picked america's first freedom if it will show up finally LOL) plus you get a free $1000 gun insurance policy. The $1000 insurance for $35 a year (regular price) with a nice magazine thrown in was the seller for me. The helping lobby the 2nd Amendment stuff was just a huge bonus! The insurance even covers if it's stolen out of your car. You know for those times you have to work and cant carry and going into a resturant and cant carry times, atleast your carry weapon is covered.
  3. The automatic / hydrostatic is nice till you you have trouble with it.
  4. Im running a 4 year old version of that yard man (same thing but just slightly updated so they could say its new) here with no issue's other then a weak 4th gear from alot of hill use.
  5. If your asking why im using one instead of pocket carry for such a small weapon. For medical reasons the only comfortable and quick access carry's i can use and i feel depend on if i need it in a SHTF episode is either OWB or in my Right Hand. LEO's and Sheep may not like the second one. That should surfice for a answer i think!
  6. No i got it at the Gun Shop in Sweetwater. I dont know the name of it but its behind the Kangaroo Station on Sweetwater Vonore rd. Just South from the Post Office off Hwy 11. He seems to always have a suppliy of Kel-Tec's when no one else has one, and beat Farnsworths price like it was silly on it too. It's just a couple clicks from my house so i made a stop in there on the way to the bank that morning then i had to goto the bank for a reason. hehe
  7. Id be happy if they would just send me ANYTHING! I joined awhile back and never got one thing, not even the mag yet. And since i dont have my membership number (which is in some i never got package, or on the mag which i never got) im SOL.

    Kel-Tec .380

    I bought the P32 over the P3at last week even tho i love the 380 round and have two other handguns in that round. Just becasue it carry's more rounds, has been in production longer so all the bugs are well worked out. Has a last round slide lock while the P3at does not, and can run the +P rounds with confidence with blessing's from kel-tec which with the right loads actually have been tested to out penetrate any load you can safely put in the P3at and actually comes close or behond the cheaper 9mm loads. People tend to forget the 32 (aka the 7.65x17mm Browning) is a very very popular round for police and military in Europe. All i had to do out of the box was field strip it and clean and lube it up and it's been like butter. Not a problem and working smooth like any other gun i have. No fluff and buff crap, just knock the shelf dust out of it and lube it up and rock and roll. I do not feel under gunned with it.
  9. Yha i noticed that myself even tho mine fits so tight you have to yank it out, it just wont slide out. There is a 2nd generation updated version but out of 6 dealers i went to that day only 1 even had a paddle holster to fit it and they only had this one. The others had basic generic soft holsters to fit it, and i bought one and it burnt me on my side from movement rub in under a hour of walking. I'll find one of the 2nd gen online and upgrade later.
  10. Man that thing is small and comfy to carry. Like a dream come true! It amazed me that my standard carry weapon was heaver unloaded with no mag, then this fully decked out ready to go holster and all. Btw: That was my third holster that day, wife was not pleased but im happy.
  11. I actually took a walk into Gander Mountain yesterday for the first time. They had everything you need but only it seems if it was a for a Glock. And the prices? Damn! I had to shoo my son off from even touching anything in fear.
  12. He would carry a lighting bolt to fire up your arse is what he would carry.
  13. Me and my dad did it as a pair. Both did the class same day same time same class. I was in front of him in line at the DOT to do the paper work. He was in front of me in line doing the fingerprints. That was on Feb the 4th I got mine March 28th, he got his May the 3rd. 1 day short of 90 days for him. Was a fun Father / Son thing. Maybe one of the last in our lifetimes.
  14. You would be suprised like i was on how hard it was to get out of my pocket as one peice. The material actually grips to the inside of the pocket. That and the way i have it folded at the bottom corners helps grip.
  15. I needed a back pocket holster for a odd ball brand 22 auto for use as a backup untill i get my kel-tec or if having problems with my kel-tec. I wish i made pictures during construction but it's pretty simple setup. Item's needed: Old pair of blue jeans that are headed for the trash. Old mouse pad (thick more stiff ones are best) Something to cut with (i used a razor knife) Gel type glue that works on fabrics. Cut the mouse pad in the shape of the trigger guard and to a square point at the other end and stack and glue untill it is the same thickness as the weapon. Then place it in the peice of blue-jeans and make a square using it and the weapon and glue in place. Now fold and glue the material to form a square and let dry. Real simple and fits nicely in your back pocket and forms a nice square shape and looks like a wallet but holds the weapon in place from shifting and can be pulled out by pinching the fabric together behind the slide but is actually really easy and fast to draw from and the spacer helps it stay in your pocket. Simple and effective. I took it on a outing tonight and was quite comfy and didnt move and very hidden since it was shorter then the height of my jeans pocket. Looked like nothing more then a wallet. Cost $ 0.00
  16. As i said before this is what you say to everyone. The dog growled and came at me and my dog thankfully jumped between us and defended me long enough for me to draw my weapon. No other disscusion needed on it. 100% legal by the book!
  17. I think the proper canned response is. The dog growled and lunged at me and thankfully my dog got between us and defended me long enough for me to draw my weapon.
  18. I get off work at 12am and head down the road and get close to the house where i have to make one last left hand turn at a light onto my road. I'm sitting at the light and notice a mini van sitting in a empty parking lot across the road kinda sideways to the normal parking spots there, no lights or anything. (alert goes up a notch) Light turns green and the headlights on it turn on. I make my left turn and notice when im about 100 yards from the light it pulls onto the road coming my way. (alert goes up a notch more) I get to my driveway about a mile down the road and back up the driveway and beside the house where i park. I look up and the van pulls in my driveway, throws it in reverse and backs into my turnaround in my driveway and throws it in park, which basicly from where im parked at beside the house block's my car in without me having to cut thru the yard. (alert goes thru the roof) I hop out of my car and draw my gun but keep it down beside my leg since i have the advantage that there is no light on the side of the house where i park, only a light facing toward the van. Out hop's a buddy of mine saying do you like my new van! He then get's a very very very stern talk about calling first before coming by that late at night and waiting up the road for me. Ne never once seen the gun, had he i would probably be outside at sun up with the pressure washer working on the new brown stain in the driveway.
  19. Ive only had one interaction with a LEO since i got my permit, but i used to ride back and forth to work with a buddy that has had one since the start of the tenn program. We got blued one night on the way home and it went almost the same as my stop. Kept hands where they could be seen. (didn't have to be on steering wheel) Told the LEO i (or him at time) had a carry permit (making sure not to use the word Handgun or Gun so as not be heard wrong and cause panic) and told them i had a weapon in the car. LEO asked where, which got a repliy on location. (didn't ask for it just wanted to know where) took permit and license, did a quick run on them Then he talked away calm as could be explaining why he had stop us and even wanted to know what the carry weapon was (wanted to see mine since he had never seen that model) then sent us on our way with nothing more then a simple don't do it again. Rights are one thing. But as Punisher said above they just want to go home just like you would if you was on the other side of the stop. Ive known enough LEO's and heard the story's first hand to know that they wonder every single stop if they will live thru it. It's that bad out there people, don't be blind to it, ask any LEO to tell you a bad stop story and watch the emotions almost go thru the roof while they recount it. Being polite to the LEO on a personal stand point and putting him at perfect calm goes a long way and might make you a well wanted friend. Remmber most LEO's know the training and background checks we have to go thru to get the permit. And one thing to point out that any LEO or ex LEO here could probably confirm is that. If i told you i have a gun and a permit for it, the chance of me shooting you with it is probably far less then 0.001%. Why would i tell you i have one legaly then try to shoot you with it? Bad Guys dont tell the LEO's they have a gun they just use it.
  20. What i didnt like is that the article in the new sentinel is going to make it harder on us non college people now. Did you notice them pointing it out as a concealed carry permit over and over and over in it. That seems to be the main problem with not understanding the law and lead to problems like at wal-mart last year.
  21. Oh yes oh great mall ninja. LOL Come at me with your knife like that and i'll show you knife fighting skill's. It will be on the ground with one smack of my left hand (thanks for giving me a unsharp hard point to hit when you come up with it hehe), then what? use your useless pistol next? What a moron. Did anyone else see him keep looking at the shotgun so he could remmeber what round it took. I've had a knife pulled on me twice in my life, both times with nothing more then my bare hands. End result, i have two knifes in the collection to show for it. just like a gun if you can't use it, don't pull it.
  22. How about a army surplus shop? A long long drive but may be worth it if it works.
  23. I'm asking alot of question's lately it seems so don't brush me off yet please im still learnin. It's seems my current leather normal buckle style belt sucks a** and even tho it will keep my pants up, add atleast a medium size gun on my side and it seems i'm in the mood for doing some mooning after i walk a few steps. If i tighten it one more notch i feel like i'm going to be cut in half but the gun and my pants of course dont drop but after a few secs of that i got to let off. After seeing a refernce in another thread here on 5.11 Tactical belt's i googled the term (all hail google) and seen exactly what i need a fully adjustable belt thats built to take the weight. Here's the question - where can i get one localy without driving a hour away?? Bear in mind im not a small boy (50") so it's hard enough to just get a regular belt off the shelf. It doesn't have to be limited to gun only shop's. Does a place like goody's have a clone style version that will work? I have one i go near once a week but still out of the way a bit to do a casual stop.
  24. Ive been carrying OWB and finding it hard to conceal properly in warm weather without a second outside garment of which i only have one of, and as any married man on a budget would know if you buy clothes the wife want's a bunch too. But trying IWB i noticed i couldn't even button my jeans with the holster in place unless i used small of the back area. Am i going to have to buy larger jeans and use a belt to tighten the crap out of them to make IWB at the seems to be popular 4 o'clock postion which looks the most comfortable? And how not look like a young punk with my jeans below my butt everytime i take a step since one side up (before carry came up) would drop like a rock at any move? Advice anyone?
