Floppy D said:I betcha that was intentional. The point is that self defense is a human right, and a family who can't afford high dollar guns still has a right to self defense. So yeah, a Kel-Tec.
Most families can knock off the drinking, smoking, snacks/Cokes at work, eating out, movie/game rentals, lottery tickets, whatever "frivolous" type expenditures for a month or two, stash that cash and be able to afford a NICE defensive pistol or other firearm.
Someone who can "afford" a Kel-Tec costing almost $300 (I know, I have a P11 and it's still a POS) can do a LOT better. Starting with a good ol' pump shotgun. Which would you rather have for home defense...hmmmm? I have an old Mossberg 500 I bought in the 80s that has never had a single issue and I've shot the crap out of that shotgun. Bought it USED for under $100 and it even has very nice wood on it. Plus, they are barely over $200 BRAND SPANKIN' NEW right here in 2009.
And there's always the used handgun market for CCW... Used Glocks can be found for not much more than $300 and there's always the good old Makarov, which is dead nuts reliable. Same can't be said for Kel-Tec's NOTORIOUS reputation for putting out unreliable firearms. And don't take that from me. Just do an internet search...

I've already made my recommendation.
Maybe we'll see Oleg start to use Hi-Points and chromed Jennings/Bryco/Raven/Jimenez stuff for the po folks crowd?
