Loading the magazines not so much. Bought a gadget to help but haven’t yet been to the range with it. For the volume shooter Kel-Tec offers a kit to upgrade the magazines to 50 rounds. Won’t buy one until I master loading 33. I've seen those mag extensions. They look pretty cool. When the rounds are stacked four across, an extention doesn't have to be very tall to add a lot of capacity. The CP33 is the first pistol magazine I ever saw with a round mag spring, incidentally. Interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MO Fugga Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Sneer at .22lr all you want, but the ability to put that many on target that fast is an asset. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I agree. 33 rounds of ANYTHING placed on target is going to have the desired affect. That is a hell of a lot of capcity in a flush-fit magazine. Kel-Tec is an innovative company. Nice folks too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that weird? Once the .45 ACP cartridge and before that, the .45-70 cartridge was perfected, they didn't need to keep trying. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a P3AT that I carry when I can't carry my Kimber. That little pistol is well-travelled. I went through several of them and rep[laced them until I finally bought one with the hard-chrome finish. I use their optional built clip to wear the pistol inside the waistband and the slides would corrode from skin contact. The hard chrome job cured that. I've carried that little pistol for almost a decade now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have set up some sort of associate program with Glock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt Longmire Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Sign me up. I want the Keltec. I currently have a polymer Mountain Eagle in .22lr. I have been using it since they first came out. 20 rounds of 22 in a lightweight package. What's not to love? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've carried that little pistol for almost a decade now. I read somewhere, but don’t know whether fact or fiction, that Kel-Tec collected a worthwhile amount from Ruger because Ruger’s first LCP was a bit too close to P3AT Since introducing the LCP Ruger has added to that family the LCP II and the LCP MAX as well as the LCP II Lite in 22. I asked and Ruger said they had no plans to add the “Lite” slide design to the 380. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Eric Posted January 8, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted January 8, 2022 This is the last week of our fundraiser, which ends on Jan 15th. We will pick winners for the prizes the following Friday. In retrospect, choosing to run this effort over Christmas season wasn't a great idea. Hopefully, things will pick up during this last week. I want to thank again everyone who has donated. I know that things are tough all over and your generosity is much appreciated. I couldn't keep this place running without you.

Administrators Eric Posted January 8, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted January 8, 2022 I just spotted a problem that might have been preventing some people from being able to contribute. The donation area was not accessible unless the reader was logged into the site. I just changed the settings to allow guests to access that area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuteTheMall Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) Oops, nevermind. Edited. I misread excluding as including, and the suggested amounts inserted the $ sign which I had to delete. No problems now.

Administrators Eric Posted January 15, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2022 The Bore Site fundraising effort ends tomorrow night, Saturday, 15 January, 2022. Each ten dollars of your donation gives you another chance to win one of the three great prizes outlined below. The donation system was not initially allowing guests and members who were not logged in to participate. I noticed this issue last week and corrected it. It is not necessary to be a TBS member, or to be logged in, to enter. Winners will be chosen and announced a week from this Saturday. If you are paying by check, you have until next Saturday for the payment to arrive and still be entered in the drawing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
