i carry a kel-tec P3AT .380 concealed on my ankle and a glock 27 .44 subcompact on my waist. i also carry a ruger kp345 .45 but that mostly stays on my nightstand......


i didn't see if you were planning on carrying it on you or not.. if you are, the kel-tec line is nice for a compact conceal gun. its not top of the line, but it will get the job done. its a good starter good as well. it can be beat up and tossed around while not breaking the bank..... about $280 +

i go shooting a lot in the allentown area if you want to go. me and my friends have a lot of different guns... glocks, sigs, rugers, kel-tec, DESERT EAGLE, RAGING BULL 454 (big boys) good luck!

Anyone has a CZ?
I was close to picking up a CZ Rami subcompact.. basically a mini CZ 75, which is a very proven line. You can't go wrong with them.. but personally if I were to own a non poly pistol, it would be a .45 ACP 1911 no question (manly gun #2) I just don't really have a need for one, and they can get pretty expensive.

Are you serious that you carry multiple guns on your at once? What danger do you exactly encounter that requires multiple firearms??

Evil mustangkiller01 is always killed by a cop when going for his concealed ankle weapon after he is presumed dead.. so I don't really see the point either.
























laa llooollaa

On the other hand, Good mustangkiller01 could find the extra 7 rounds from the P3AT invaluable after untying his hands during the speech on world domination.. unless his adversary is a prior BFF turned evil, it will go unnoticed.

but then again.. what if you're fighting zombies? Without question at some point you will be crawling under a fence, under a car, or through a window with zombies grabbing at your ankles.. could get knocked loose. or you could end your life to save a loved one from being ravished by your own blood thirsty zombie teeth after your leg is bitten.

So you see, it's could be put to good use.

On a serious note though.. It's for backup. If his GLOCK fails, he is physically only able to reach for his leg, in the very unlikely scenario that he empties the mag on the GLOCK, etc..

Holy crap I've heard about you people in those songs by those rap guys.

I have no problem with people carrying concealed weapons legally...but is it honestly necessary or is there even the potential that you'll need to use the back-up?

guns fail to feed ammo, fail to fire ammo, fail to extract casings.. so if any of those happens, what are you going to do? You might have time to manually remove the casing on a failure to extract, but you better hope shot #1 landed. You most likely won't have time to rack the slide, drop the mag, and remove a jammed round that failed to feed.. so you better hope shot #1 landed. Failure to fire leads to a stove pipe (round partially in the barrel)? You're shit out of luck mate.

vtec9, all the reasons why revolvers make me all warm and fuzzy. Used to be "six for sure" but my S&W 686+ says "seven."

Just walk with a limp and keep an 18" shotgun down your leg
