Kel-Tec Firearms

[WayneFloyd]

For what its worth:
I've owned a SU-16B for four years and P3AT for over two years. I have put about 500 hundred rounds through both.

No feed problems with the P3AT (I only shoot hardball) but the SU-16B is picky on ammo types - lots of FTF's in the begining less as its been broken in. It did not like Wolf ammo.

I don't go anywhere with out the P3AT in my pocket either as my primary carry (summer time) or backup. ITs held up well.

I am not as happy with the SU-16B and would not recommend it as a first rifle or only .223. I don't think it would hold up under long term use. What I do like about it can be folded to a small package with a 20 round mag inserted and to 10's stored in stock. I keep it as a backup rifle for the SUV in "my get back home" bag.

Regards, Wayne Floyd

I have a P3AT, which I carry in a pocket or IWB holster, both DeSanti. I've never had any problems with it, and it's exceedingly comfortable and reliable.

I bought my daughter one in 9mm about 4 years ago. She loves it.

I briefly owned a P3AT a few years ago (before some local choirboy stole it and tossed it into the lake). It was reliable, but quite uncomfortable to shoot for my big hands- the narrow grip and trigger tend to concentrate the recoil force. But reliable- I fired a few 102grn Golden Sabers through it without complaint.

thanks for the info everyone. what i am getting is that Kel-Tec has some pretty good handguns but their rifles may leave something to be desired, is that a fare assumption?
