I think I had one or two jams when I was breaking in some new 12-round mags.

The only real problem I had with it is the trigger spring popping out of it’s groove in the trigger bar. Sent it to KelTec and they installed a complete new trigger assembly.

Being a DAO with no safety (like the LCR) the trigger kind of sucks. But it’s accurate enough at self defense ranges and packs 13 rounds in a small package. Mine is my everyday carry (except weekends when I often carry my CZ82).

I’ve got about 1000 rounds through mine now. The P11 is not a range gun. It’s a self defense gun.

Check out the Kahr CM9 and the new S&W Shield.

Both are about 16 - 17 oz single stacks.

We haven’t even finished breaking in the one I bought for my wife. I think we’ve only put about 100 to 150 rounds through it.

We’ve both been so busy with crap lately that I don’t think either of us has been to the range in almost two months.

:(

Never had a DAO Semi Auto before. Does it chamber a round when you put a new mag in? Guess I better got look at one before I buy one...

It works like any semi-auto. It chambers a round when you release the slide forward.

The DA trigger makes for a harder and longer trigger pull (for safety reasons). It’s in the 8-10 lb range. About the same as shooting a revolver in double action.

Kahr PM9 is on my list too. But at 16 ounces it’s almost as large as the G26/27 too.

I’m just trying to reduce. The Kimber Solo CDP is so pretty I may have to sacrifice.

You need to clarify that felons are excluded.

If you're looking for something small and pricy, check out the Boberg.
