Keltec P32

Just get another P32. I bought mine used for $120-something plus shipping and FFL. Its grips and slide are a bit worn, but the innards are pristine. Its "sights" (a trough) limit it, but mine is completely reliable with FMJ and hits what I aim at easily at 21 feet or less.

Since I had an abundance of .380 ammo on hand (and virtually no .32 ammo), I went with the P3AT. Have been very happy with it for what it is: a true pocket pistol!

So get another P32 and be happy!

My P32 is one of my main standbys. I've had it since 2001 or 2, and for most of that time, it's been my minimum carry. (I always carry at least the P32, though I may carry more.) I've had I don't know how many 1911s, CZs, Glocks, etc come and go, but never even thought about selling the 32.

My P32 is the gun that I carry when I can't carry a gun.

LNIB sold quickly at LGS for $149 + tax.

I had a first generation P32 with the hard chrome slide.
Neat little bitty gun that was very reliable.

I traded it off towards a Ruger Super Blackhawk, plus a little cash.
Ok, a whole lot of cash.

Kinda regret not having it, but other makes & models are higher up the want list.

Thats what I had. Bought new in 2005 IIRC. It was a great little pistol. I bought a belt clip and extra 10 round mag. But I sold it because I just didn't like the two tone look. In hind sight I wish I had of just bought some flat black spray paint and painted the slide. There wasn't a thing in the world wrong with that gun. I have one of the new versions on my watch list on GB.

I did find a very clean Taurus TCP in 380 with box and paperwork for $77. Friday my order of 250 rounds of 380 came in so I have around 375 rounds for it. That may just have to do unless I sell something to pay for a new Kel-Tec 32. But I do like 32 caliber pistols and found I can load 32acp with my 32 long dies. I just had to buy a different shell holder.

Have been carrying one all summer. Crazy light weight especially with a loose tee shirt and summer shorts with no belt.

I'm looking to buy one and can you believe MSRP is up to $350? I want mine new so I'm looking for deals but its gonna run more than an LCP by almost $100 OTD.

I'm hoping mine doesn't rim lock.

Seecamp 32. More money but all Stainless.

just thought I would mention... the ten round clip makes it easier to hold on to and point with and still fits most of my pockets... and goes bang a few more times.

^This. Makes it a different gun almost.

My P32 does backup duty to another Kel-Tec product, a PF9. Been carrying them together since 2011 (the PF9 since a year earlier.)

While traveling to and from my no-carry job, the P32 rides alone in a pocket, with that ten-rounder in place. As a backup, it wears its original seven-rounder, since I wear jeans off duty with tighter pockets.

While I will give you that the Seecamp .32 is a very well designed and built pistol, it is rather expensive (MSRP is $510 while Bud's Gun Shop has the P32 for $228), as is the ammo that they recommend for it (close to or more than a $1 a round), though they do list PMC Bronze 60 gr. JHP at $20 for 50 rounds.

I have carried this same model since 2001 and about worn out the little Desantis pocket holster. I alternate now between the P32 and the Taurus TCP I have. I highly recommend the hard chrome finish in areas with lots of heat and humidity.

When I got mine way back when I stuck it in my pocket to see how it felt. It was nice and light and you could forget it was there. And I did. I was in a restaurant and found it was still in my pocket. I had completely forgot about it. And I hadn't been to my CCW class yet either.

If you look at the link I posted in post #12 they have Kel-Tec P32s for $179.00. Thats $49 cheaper than Buds. But the shipping is $35 so that sort of negates the advantage.

I just picked Bud's because they had them in stock and had a price listing for them. They do have free shipping though and I believe they'll match a lower price too.
