    KelTek is getting lazy this year

    usually Keltek comes out with some crazy BS for social media influencer engagement at shot show. last year it was the PR57. guess they didn't feed their engineers enough bath salts because this year the best they could come up with is a .380 version of the PR57. the 5.7 had something to offer, its the smallest 5.7 pistol on the market. you want a high capacity 5.7 that you can easily carry, its the only option. in .380 though, the market is flooded with better guns......i absolutely love .380, normally i carry a beretta 80x. if i need something small i go with the bodyguard 2.0. as far as micro .380's go, the bodyguard 2.0 is the best one on the market, they even have a comped version for the people who need a comp on every gun they own. there is no way anyone who is serious about carrying a gun buys this abomination over the bodyguard. it dosent even look like a soft shooter. the gun darn near jumps out of the females hand on the first shot and she's using FMJ range ammo. they didn't even put the gator texture on the grip like the PR57. its way to smoothed out, with that two finger grip and light recoil spring its going to have jump. im sure the influencers will go nuts over it though............

    I would love to have a PR57. But communists here hate anything that's fun.

      It seems that YT video has been removed..... I assume it was about the Keltec PR-3AT?

      The PR-3AT probably won't win any beauty contests, yet it is pretty smaller (palm size) and can hold 13+1 .380 rounds. Using top-loading stripper clips, like the PR57.

        yup took that down quick. heres the only other video about it so far. its funny they spent money to make that video between paying the film crew, editor they probably spent more than a few pennies. then some google robot says beep boop nope and takes down the video.

          It's the new and slightly improved version of Kellren's Grendel P10. I get it's all about the highest capacity for as small as possible of a BUG you can get, but it's 13 rounds. Once you're through those, throw it at somebody or use it like brass knuckles, because you're not going to be able to do a tactical reload with stripper clips. And carrying loaded stripper clips easily is another hurdle.

          It's a cheap one-and-done gun. I's rather stick with the P3AT.

            And I'm still awaiting the KelTec 8 round revolver, with swappable preloaded cylinders, that doubles as a foldable wallet, has a handcrank instead of a trigger, and is chambered in 45GAP.

                That would be interesting to see if KelTec could 'make a better mousetrap' with a revolver design...
