KelTec P32 problem

[Wayniac]

I just bought a KelTec P32. Love the gun but have a small problem...
The gun is jaming on the last round everytime. It jams when both firing or if I have only one round in the mag and i try to load it by hand. The round is jaming at a small angle and holds the slide back to where you can cleary see the rounds jacket.
I cleaned and oiled the gun thorouly but still the same problem.

Just wondering is anyone else has come across this problem and what you did to fix it.

Hi there,

I own a P-32 and where is probably need to start is to field strip the magazine and clean it with solvent only. DO NOT OIL.

Check for burrs on the plastic follower and file them gently off with a nail file if you find one.

Mec Gar makes the magazines and generally they are really good, but mine required cleaning out of the box. I had the same problem and found some "grayish grit" in the magazine tube that was causing the follower to bind slightly.

Also Kel Tec will sell you a replacement magazine for the princely sum of $21.95. Heck, call them and explain the problem and they will probably send you a new one free! They have excellent customer service!
