I was at the range today and I saw a keltec p11 for 175.00. Is that a good price for a used Keltec?
Thanks.

Not really when you can buy a new one for $199 + transfer fee from CDNN.

Depends on whether you can try it out or not. If it shoots well, and you really want a P-11, I'd get it.
The trigger takes some getting used to, however.
I carried a P-11 for several years. Its a good gun.
The price you cited is OK -- and you might be able to haggle a bit.
While new ones are just a bit more, you'd have to pay shipping and an FFL transfer fee if buying from CDNN, and that's going to add anywhere from $40 -- $60 to the purchase price.
Kel-Tec will honor the warranty whether its new or used, so there's limited advantage to paying more for a NEW gun.

For blued I'd try to get a few bucks lower, or at least a couple of extra mags or a boxes of ammo... For chrome nickel, or park that seems pretty decent (Not a steel but not bad).

I wish that I good find a P11 NIB for $199. They are going for $239-$259 around my neck of the woods.

I've not seen or looked for a P11 , but I did go in search of the elusive P3AT and found that the P32 is selling for OVER 300 dollars in Tampa. (at least in the LGS's that I looked in )
I don't think so. :banghead:

Shoot a P11 before you buy one.
Not an easy gun to use, at least in my hands.
I paid 200 cash for mine, lightly used, came with the mag-extension floorplates.

If you DO decide to get the P-11, understand that these guns can use S&W Model 59 and 69 mags.
(You can get extension pieces/spacers from Kel-Tec for these longer mags that make them look and feel like part of the grip -- making the gun fit your hand better. I seemed to shoot better when using a S&W hi-cap, because the gun fit my hand better...)
One of the beauties of these guns is that they are simple -- and anyone with more than minimal skills can do their own gunsmithing.

go to any gun show in the area, I comonly see them for under $250 new (P-32's). If you still don't find anything CDDN usually has them for $199 + shipping and FFL fees (still better than $300)

$150 is a good price for a used P-11 in good condition. I don't think I'd pay $175 for a P-11, but I recently paid $190 for a P-40.
Regards, Keys :cool:

Shipping from CDNN is 9.99 and my FFL's transfer fee is $15. If you buy the used one in the gunshop you'll also have to pay taxes.
