Considering the jail time in SEVERAL states for carrying a concealed weapon ranges anywhere from 3-10yrs, I highly suggest you don't listen to this guy's advice.

I have a little bersa .380 that I like, if you want to go cheap. Ive thrown many rounds down range with it without issue. I really dont like the .380 round, but that vs someone in knife range it would do the trick. I have been messed with when I was running, but it was early in the run and the turd couldn't keep up.. LOL.

IF you are living in a place where going for a jog might get you knifed

AND you for some reason insist on jogging JUST there vs. taking a 5-mile car drive to a safer area or a gym or something sane

THEN maybe you should pack heat when you are jogging.



Personally, if I am running around in circles on my block I'm usually only carrying a knife. It seems pretty unlikely that a jogger with a knife is going to be stabbed once the knife comes out and the Goblins decide they want less of a struggle from their prey. Then again, the last many miles I put on my jogging shoes were on a treadmill a few steps from the Arsenal at my house and there's a pretty low risk of catching a knife in that circumstance!



I'm not saying you should pack heat against the law, I'm saying you should move to where you can legally carry. No wait, that's not it . . . . I'd rather sit in a jail cell than lie in a freezer, is all I'm saying. I won't SAY I've carried into places it was illegal, but I . . . uh, wait my lawyer is on the phone BRB

As an added bonus they're all compared to the best answer, the S&W J Frame. B)

The Kel-Tec is sweet as long as your looking for a strictly "to carry" gun. Get it sighted in and leave it alone. If you are looking for a pistol you'd also like to shoot though, that one has issues with jamming on the discharge and I know more then one guy who has had to replace the slide springs because of it.

anything in the size of this wont be even CLOSE to be as dependable or as powerful

Stocker

I think of pretty much ALL Kel-tek pistols as kit guns. They are the equivalent (in price, fit, finish, and reliability) of a Ruger without the finishing steps done by the manufacturer. You apply a couple/few hours doing a "fluff & buff" to the gun and it's finished. Save the money of having them do it at the factory, but if you want a reliable piece it has to be done.
