A Tale of Two 9mm Pistols

[paulgt2164]

Owned a few Kel-tecs.

Hated them all.

I had three of the PF-9s. Two I owned wouldn't function even after being sent back to the factory (one twice.) I sold the third slightly more reliable-yet-still-wasn't-100% one on the old forum, as a semi-reliable ammo picky project at a loss. I sold the non-op two to a adventurous friend.


I bought a PMR30. That one went back once. Still didn't work (stovepipes and failure to extracts...) Sold it cheap to a friend as a "project."

Will not buy another Kel-Tec. I would rather carry a large stick after my experiences.

I gave them 4 tries, and sent firearms back to them 5 or 6 times in total. Still never had a properly functioning handgun.

YMMV - but that is my experience.

I like the PF-9 for the belt clip option. The factory belt clip option works better for me than any aftermarket Teckan Clip type add-on belt clip on a different gun. I hardly know I am carrying a PF-9 with a belt clip.

I bought a PF9 because of Nutnfancy from youtube. lol
Decent and reliable gun but it rattles and feels cheap so I sold it.

Now with the availability of a 15 rnd mag for the G43X, this is more of a no brainer, at least to me.
