Les Jones: New 0.88" Slim Kel-Tec 9 mm

February 10, 2006

Guns > New 0.88" Slim Kel-Tec 9 mm

The PF-9 is expected in May, and will probably sell for not much more than the P3At. Unloaded weight is 12.7 ounces.

The PF-9 is a semi-automatic, locked breech pistol, chambered for the 9 mm Luger cartridge. It has been developed from our highly successful P-11 and P-3AT pistols with maximum concealability in mind. The PF-9 has a single stack magazine holding 7 rounds. It is the lightest and flattest 9 mm ever made. Firing mechanism is Double-Action Only with an automatic hammer block safety. The PF-9 will be available in blued, parkerized, and hard chrome finishes. Grips will be in black, grey, and olive drab.
The PF-9 accessory rail will accept the latest compact weapon lights and lasers.

YES!

My Glock 23 is just Too Darn Big for summer carry. Just tonight I was contemplating the P3AT, but hated the idea of going with anything less than 9mm.

And at that price, if it proves to be a reliable weapon, it's just downright yummy.

It looks like Justin Moon needs to head back to the drawing board.

MUST... MOVE... TO... NH... SOON...

Paul, the p3at is considerably smaller. Plus, according to the box, Federal Hydrashock 380 and 9mm deliver the exact same foot pounds/muzzle velocity. Of course, the 380 is lighter but foot pounds is foot pounds.

I really hope this is just practice for the Kel-Tec guys in preparation for issuing a super compact .45.....

There's already a super compact .45...the Taurus Millenium Pro PT745. That's VERY small and only an inch thick...and holds 6+1, 20oz unloaded, which isn't bad for a .45.

Perfect with Winchester Ranger-T 230gr. You NEVER feel like you don't have enough gun...and it vanishes into a SmartCarry.

I'd like to see this kel-tec in a nice chrome finish. By the way for those of you who dont think 9mm is the way to go, look into a glock 36 .45 slimline.
