I plan on contacting Kel-Tec to see if i can get this repaired, but I thought I would inform other p-11 owners of my problem and post updates on how Kel-Tec handles the issue.
I noticed a crack in the frame of my P-11 this morning when I cleaned the pistol. It is forward of the trigger guard on the left side of the frame. I did not think this part of the frame took that much stress but I guess it does.
The pistol has had about 7000 (best guess) factory rounds through it so far. I have been working up a load for it for the past week. The load I am working up is a light load so it had nothing to do with the crack. In fact the point of me working up these loads is to get away with as light of recoil as I can for practice. For those that know reloading, the load I am loading is 4gr bullseye over a 115gr FMJ with CCI SPP (probably around 900 to 1000 fps). It was actually to light of a load and did not cycle the slide and I was going to move up to 4.1g for the next loads.
It will probably be monday before I can get around to calling them as it looks like I am going to have a busy weekend.
Has anyone else had this problem?
