Kind of why I'm looking at something a little smaller, like the PF9. Not saying I'm discounting the p3at completely as a pocket pistol.. Still interested in one of those too!
Whats with everyone here and ***** and expensive calibers. I mean 380's are for little girls. At least go with a 9mm or .40 s&w, both are much cheaper than 380. That's right, i forgot, we all drive miatas. Personally i like the .40, specifically Glock 27, 400 rounds of reloads not a single hiccup.
Caliber doesn't mean ****. Want a real world example? Ever shot a squirrel with a .17hmr? Might as well have been a hand grenade.
This is what keeps the free world free next to my ***** .380 acp.. Just a ***** little .22, amirite?
Btw, I Load my own .380 range rounds for $0.04/round. Whats your 40 caliber cost you to shoot?
Think I like Keltec's products?

Nonsense!!
My PK380 for example.. After I'm done firing it at the range I run a boresnake through it two or three times to remove the big nasty stuff when its fresh. Later, when I feel like it, I'll strip the pistol down and clean / oil it. Takes me 3 minutes to break down and fully clean & lube the thing. Strip it apart takes 10 seconds, run a brush and patches through the barrel takes another 20 seconds, small scrub brush and solvent around the slide and lower frame, drop some oil in the lower frame, oil in the slide action. Run a freshly oiled patch through the barrel, barrel and spring back in the slide, install slide back on frame. Small bit of oil on a fresh rag and wipe the outside of the slide down then remove excess with lint free rag. Insert freshly loaded magazine and back into my holster.

Dress slacks and a shirt, I might carry the Ruger LCP w/crimson trace and Cor-Bons. Jeans and a t-shirt, Kimber and Hydro-Shok. Out on a friend's ranch hunting pigs, the GP-100 w/ Remington JHP .357.
A weapon is a tool. Different tools for different applications. Besides, doesn't matter what caliber you're carrying if you can't hit the target...
