Rules (Under review):
-
- NO BUYING, SELLING OR TRADING of guns or accessories. Take that to Reddit and /r/GunAccessoriesForSale or Armslist.com
-
- Censor all personally identifiable information in posts including serial numbers on firearms.
-
- Any post or comment advocating illegal action will be removed and the poster warned. A second infraction will result in a ban.
-
- Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.
-
- Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.

MODERATORS
keltec's interest here is that the mechanisms can be slightly smaller, and reloading typically doesn't happen in self-defense shootings. if you need more than ~5 shots you don't need a hand gun you need comrades.
Makes sense for the people who like that kind of thing I guess, but I don't want my gun to be small. Only thing a small gun is better at than a big gun is hurting your hands.
yeah size and weight are carrying optimizations.
with my situation i think if a handgun is going to be beneficial i'm not so worried about it printing
Printing, you mean like showing under clothes or wearing a worn spot on pants?
yeah
Concealability and portability, no?
Especially with it being a .380
Concealability for sure, smaller guns allow "Deep Carry" which makes them almost completely undetectable in contrast to larger guns that print easily and require restricting your choice of clothing.

Tbh I think it was a way to skip the difficult process of designing a working detachable magazine
