Agman. I have the same 9mm Kel-Tec, too. Great small gun. A little hard to get use to long trigger pull but gets better. My .380 is a Kel-Tec too.

We don't do a lot of shooting, so we've never had any jams, but I know it's a possibility. Neither of us conceal carry yet, but if we do, seems like our little S&W Chiefs 38 Special No. 36 would fit the bill nicely.
Pappy, when my bride secured her CCL it became time to buy her a pistol. Our rural gun dealer is a retired Texas Department of Public Safety (State Police) officer and he strongly recommended the Kel-Tec pistol. When I got back to the ranch I did a bunch of research on Kel-Tec and was very impressed. When I saw the photo of your pistol I thought that it is a Kel-Tec. Glad you like yours. It is a lot of pistol for the money.
Some thoughts about the shelf life of ammunition here.
I'm glad you have this thread. I have been thinking of buying a gun online. I found a website that sells them online. I am thinking of a small gun that I can put in my pocket when I walk my dog. There have been people around trying to steal dogs from their care takers. I would die before I let someone take my baby girl. Anyone know of a good small gun?
That looks like a nice one! I like that holster, too.Here you go, Ruthanne. This is my everyday carry, with pocket holster. Kel-tec, .380.
I have fired a 38 revolver before and was thinking of getting a small one. I would think it's more of a paperwork hassle to buy one offline than online. Have also thought of getting an air gun because they look like real guns, too. I can't afford anything real expensive.I would advise Against buying a pistol, online. I don't know what kind of registration paperwork issues would be involved with an online purchase, but I would imagine that would be a hassle. More importantly, a person should visit a gun store, and handle the weapon, and even test fire it at a range, before buying. The "Fit" to a person's hand, and the severity of the "kick" are things that must be considered before buying a pistol to carry regularly. If you intend to carry a pistol for personal protection, it Must be one you feel comfortable with, and you Must be able to use it almost subconsciously. The time to get "familiar" with a weapon is NOT when danger is only seconds away.
