I am considering buying a KelTec 9mm pistol to carry concealed.

Does anyone have any thoughts or experiences with this gun?

Gotta love Ted. :-)

I have one and it sticks out a little. I don't care if someone sees my gun. Open carry is legal here as well. Even if you open carried, most people aren't looking for a gun anyway. :-) Your mileage may vary

I had one and I didn't like it. I sold it to my brother. I had problems with it chambering a round. I sent it back to Kel-Tec where they did the "fluff and buff" treatment to it. It still didn't solve the problem.

I have a S&W 442 J-Frame revolver (same as the 642, just a different color) and I love it. Revolvers go bang pretty much every time.

Yeah I got a S&W .38 cal 637 Airweight that I carry in a leg holster for that very reason (goin' bang everytime). I also have a Glock 27 I carry in a belt holster when I'm gonna somewhere a lil more "shady".

I just want a semi-auto that's a lil more compact than a Glock 27. Easier to pocket carry. The one I'm gonna buy is used, but it is from a buddy. It is the Kel Tec 9mm P11 model.

Yeah, I had the P11. I would carefully inspect it before you buy it. Just make sure it can chamber rounds flawlessly. If that is fine, buy it :-)

Thanks Dan :-)

Bambam, trust me, DO NOT BUY A KEL TEC P11

I had one and they are notorious for needing lots of work before they are trustworthy.

They are indeed the lightest 9mm made and have a loyal following, but are notorious for misfeeds and failure to feeds and need to have the feedramp polished and lots of other gunsmithing done.

I put 300 rounds through mine and traded it in and wouldn't use another for much more than a paperweight and certainly wouldn't trust that thing with my life.

The single stack P3AT, I think it's called, is supposedly better, but when you pull the 9 pound painful trigger on a Kel Tec, it sounds like a Coke can opening. They trigger shoe helps a little, and the magazine extender lets you get more than 2 fingers on the grips, but the feedramp on Kel Tecs is famous for being horrible.

I gave mine lots of chances, dremelled the feedramp, polished it, and did the "fluff and buff" to the note, and still had at least one misfeed every 10 rounds, even with Federal rounds.

BamBam what type of holster do you have for your 642? Thanks

:-) Perfect:-)

What's a good price for AK-47 and what is the preferred place of manufacture?

Anyone know anything about this? Just got an email from a friend and not dure how real this is:

Sounds pretty bad if it passes.

My ankle holster is a DeSantis and my belt holster is from this company called http://www.shado.com/

I really like Desantis and wish I would have went with them on the belt holster. The one I have from Shado has no retention screw so it makes me nervous. Nice lether holster and it holds it securely and all, I just like the security I feel with a retention screw. Was just trying to save a few bucks. :-)

If you ask me Desantis is the way to go. :-)

This bill has been introduced into the house every year since the early 90's
It never gets any co-sponsors ( like it has none now ) and never even gets heard in commite ... lets hope it stays that way.

Ted rocks :-)

While carrying my S&W J-frame 642 i constantly worry about the firearm falling out of my IWB holster. Does anyone else have this issue?

Put a surefire G2 on it. That is what I have on mine. As far as ammo. I would suggest the Remington 00 Buck Low Recoil. I would put a side saddle on it asap or at least get one of those that slide on the stock to hold extra rounds.

Nice Springfield I have one that I carry almost everyday in the winter.

I also have a pair of Stainless 357 Vaqueros. They are great, and easy to slick up work on. Is it a new or old model?

Stay away far away. My little brother had one and it was a jamamatic. I wouldn't trust my life with it. I would suggest a 5 shot 38 Revolver.

I carry mine in a Desantis Nemesis pocket holster. I have a Don Hume IWB holster for my 442, but I don't carry it IWB often, b/c it is so easy to slip in my pocket.

If I remember right, the WASRs are made in the US and can be bought new. I may be mistaken as the AK isn't my field of expertise.

Ted Nugent has done more to support the 2nd Amendment than most will ever know. I don't always agree 100% with his political platforms, but probably 98%. I used to frequent his web forum. He posts there frequently. He was even kicking around the idea of running for governor in Michigan, even though he's been living in Texas for a few years. He'd have my vote. Just about anyone would be better than the Canadian "beauty queen" we have now.
