Step 1: Load gun.
Step 2: Point at face.
Step 3: Point away from face and fire.

Nice job.  ;D  That reminds me of the slightly larger 2.34mm rimfire SwissMiniGun that's still made. It's about a .09 caliber with a  fraction of the power of a magnum pelletgun.

The bad thing about a true pocket gun is when you forget it's in your pocket. Sometime after I got dressed one day I put my hand in my pocket and, lo and behold, there was my NAA mini .22 magnum. It weighs less than my key ring or change purse and I forgot it was in there until I touched it. That was kind of scary even though it wasn't loaded. I just wanted to see how it fit in my pocket the night before then forgot about before I got undressed.  :-[

A friend of mine used to carry a High Point in his jacket pocket, one day he left the Jacket at his Moms house and she washed it and ran it through the drier. Then gave him hell about his "clunky" jacket  ;D

LOL. One word pops into my mind. "Cookoff".

It must have sounded like a brick in the dryer.

WOW :o :o Load it, than point at face, "Genius".... After all, you'll shoot your eye out! ;D :P

As I have said before, Kel-Tec is just not given much respect around here (literally and figuratively). I took my PF-9 to my local range after getting it Dura-coated and listened to my buddy, a retired Air Force pilot and crazy 'Nam Vet, give me hell for relying on it as a carry pistol. UNRELIABLE!!, he shouted. Cheap and unreliable....

I loaded all 4 mags with Speer Gold Dots, my carry round, and beckoned him onto the line to show me how unreliable it was. He burned through them as fast as he could, then, clutching his well wrenched wrist, went to wash up. I went through another 50 rounds of Win. white box target ammo without problems. Point made.

Spend more if you must. After all, it KICKS with full power loads, but you will carry it when others may be too large or too heavy. The trigger reset is long, unlike most 9mms, and takes a little getting used to, but it is not a deal breaker in my opinion.

Let us know what you end up with and how you like it.
Mac.

Mac, I am one who gives much respect to my P3AT, I broke mine in rather "hard", well,..... there is now a waiting list to get one around here, and I had to go to Tx, to get mine shipped.

I use Speer and Cor Bon DPX for carry and WWB, or Magtech at the range.  All I did was a fluff and buff and it goes where I go, with the belt clip.

Although not designed for 25 yd. 2" groups, at 7 yds or less, I don't even have to aim,...Point and squeeze... ;)

Hope your Air Force buddy had an "enlightenment",
