3at
« on: June 21, 2021, 01:00:25 PM »
Recently picked one up and decided to sell it butt then I shot it and really liked it. Everything was fine until I realized the ejector was missing. Called Kel-Tec and they told me to send it to them and they would fix it free for me but they’d pass it on to the consumer. I opted to buy the part. ? Is. Have any of you guys ever used loctite to keep this part from becoming missing in action?

Nope, never had one break on any of my Kel-Tec guns I've owned.

It did not break it is missing. Looked it up and it’s pretty common.

All of my Kel-Tec guns went down the road. I've owned the original P11, PF9, P3AT and P32. I think I sold both the last two to cops who wanted them as backup guns.

I really liked that peanut of a gun. I just don’t trust plastic for a lifesaving part...

Nope
Not a plastic part like that

not for that
Thanks for posting about that and
informing others about the situation

The Ruger LCP is a near clone size wise and really feel in hand. But all parts are steel.

Stopped at the lgs and they had a max 9 with 2 10 round mags. Kinda disappointed since they are built for 12 rounds. I’ll keep looking. Not the first time this lgs has disappointed me. Oh yeah $500 for a pistol I have to buy mags for and throw the others in a drawer to collect dust.

I thought they were supposed to come with one 10 round and one 12 round mag. Maybe you got a Komifornia gun hiding in your local gun shop. I believe they ship them with two 10 round mags to states that only allow that many but to others they should have one of each.

I think you are right. The guy behind the counter was mumbling something about California.
