I've had a keltec PF9, P3AT, and 2 P32s.
The PF9 was a good gun, but heavy enough that I wouldn't carry it all the time (I don't like carrying in the waist band, and keep it in my cargo pocket most of the time and it would bang against my leg when walking).
The P3AT is basically identical in size as the P32, but I didn't like the recoil, and the one I had was in bad shape and had enough issues I decided to just go back to .32acp.
.32acp doesn't inspire much confidence, but it has little recoil, and is small/light/reliable enough that I don't have an excuse for not carrying it everywhere, and that's good enough for me.
Right now I've got buffalo bore in it (75gr?), but when I run out of those, I'll just go back to remington or winchester FMJ. The chrony results I got from buffalo bore weren't as high as I've seen online, and not worth the extra money IMO.
There's been some cool guns made in .32acp (savage, dreyse, cz skorpion), but sadly, I think this round will slowly die out since .380s can be made almost as small while providing better ballistics, more ammo options, and cheaper ammo. I won't be replacing my P32 anytime soon though.
