WOW , Just got a Kel-Tec P11 today, took it to the range already.
I had to get used to DAO but after that it shoots nice.
I got some 3 and 4 inch groups at 10yds and pulling from my pocket and firing
double taps got all in a sheet of notebook paper at 10yds.
Works for me as this will now be my CCW all the time. Gotto get the belt clip for it and a few other things but it sure is nice.....Oh did I mention That
It was a GIFT from my Father. He had heard me talk about one so he got a deal and bought it with the idea of gifting it to me if I liked it, AND I DO LIKE IT........

It is a neat little gun. Reliable, accurate, very light weight, nice caliber, and inexpensive. It has a large enough capacity to be a primary carry gun and small enough to be a backup. Reliable, not real good looking, and inexpensive, makes it a great daily carry gun since I don't care if it gets beat up. I carry mine at work and around the house, have it on right now.

The P11 I got has the silver (chrome)??? slide and black bottom.
A little nicer than the ones I have seen at the shop.
Nice and easy to carry, I got mine in my pocket now and it is not noticable
as I wear bib overalls most of the time ( big guy).....
Almost had to fight the wife over it but I told her they make a smaller one...
P32 and she wants to see one now.....

+1 on the P11--Great primary ccw gun.

+1 Bought a C9 Hi-Point just to have something to burn 9mm with (I had ammo and reloading supplies but no guns in that caliber any more). Shortly after, the next week in fact, I saw and bought the P-11 at the same shop! Can't beat the bang for the buck.

I have a flawless PF9 that I love. Great carry piece. The long, heavy trigger pull takes some getting used to, but it's accurate and easy to fire.

I've got a parkerized P11. Little gun, decent caliber, big capacity, big recoil! After about 30 rounds my hand gets tingly. Add a slip-on grip of some type and you will like your P11 even more.

Ive got a P11 also.... great sized gun. Feels even better with a S&W 12 rd magazine

Ive got about 300 rds thru mine so far. The trigger is very heavy, Im going to get one of the lighter trigger kits and put in it soon.

Yup, I carry mine all the time. That belt clip is the bees knees. Sometimes I pad around my house with PJ's on and just clip it on.

There's a trick to lightening up that trigger pull. It involves a bent nail if you can believe that.
