THE NEW CARRY LAW PASSED CONGRESS
It's time to start thinking about a highly concealable self-defense carry firearm, the bad guys already have thought of it.

November 21, 2011

Over the past few decades, state after state has enacted laws allowing qualified citizens to carry concealed handguns. Today, Illinois is alone in refusing. But if the U.S. House of Representatives has its way, states will lose a big chunk of their authority on the issue. State discretion has been the friend of gun rights, but now gun rights advocates want to override state discretion.

A bill passed last week would require any state that allows the carrying of concealed weapons to honor permits that other states issue to their citizens. A traveler from Texas, say, would be entitled to pack his pistol on a visit to California — regardless of the preferences of Californians. (Because it doesn't issue such permits, Illinois would not be affected.)

Advocates compare these permits to driver's license's, which are recognized across state lines. But Northwestern University law professor Andrew Koppelman points out this reciprocity came about by mutual consent of the states, not by federal decree.

States are free to do the same on guns. Most right-to-carry states, as it happens, already honor permits from some or all other states. California and New York, by contrast, restrict concealed weapons to licensed residents of their states.

Small concealables and carry weapons seem to be the ticket so far this summer. Many manufacturers have come out with unique firearms using new materials in popular calibers.  Ruger Promotions are all over the magazines and  the standby of the business featuring  the Kel-Tec line of defensive firearms is going gangbusters.

A concealed permit and a P3-AT or an LCP as shown below, might be your only defense in a confrontation. The four or five minutes response from a law enforcement agency might be too long.  Politics has not changed over the years about this subject so while you can do it, you should get the permits, training and a suitable carry weapon and learn how to use it . Reinforce that with practice and a clear cut understanding of the LAW.  

The P3-AT is no larger than a CQ type blade, see photo and has RMTAC - Rapid Multiple Target Acquisition Capabilities (6 rounds), and a knife doesn't. Both are useless if not with you.

Through our ties with the Kel-Tec factory over the years, we have developed finite enhancements, for the  Kel-Tecs. We plate the slide and barrel. Not just a nickel dip, or silver paint, we plate with Enduro Chrome, our industrial strength plating ( also called tool chrome) after careful preparation of the slide. 

Same way we do a Desert Eagle. Though nickel is great for corrosion proofing, it is soft. Thats why larger, heavy use, carry weapons rarely are nickeled anymore.  More for show pieces. These small carry firearms are usually carried somewhere closer to skin and sweat and the Chrome does a much better job of both friction reduction, and pitting prevention.   We have done thousands of these for Kel-Tec and they are part of our upgrade programs treated as such just like the 1911s and shotguns we do. 

MORE....
But wait there is more! The second step is our porting process. We only need the top assembly, the slide, springs, guide rod, take down pin  and barrel.  

Read the owners manual, check the weapon, make sure it is unloaded, pull the takedown pin, and send us the top and the pin.  It all fits neat into a USPS $4.90 small flat rate box.

OPTIONS…
We can port the firearm when it is here, do sight work on the older version .380 (1st generation) and polish the feed ramp.  Owners of ported 9mm. and .40 cal Kel-Tecs reported they had better 2nd shot acquisition (muzzle rise) and a reduction in felt recoil, and retained all the feeling in their hands after being at the range.  Call for pricing. 

Ruger LCP owners, we are also working on the Ruger LCP and the other small self-defense pistols available on the market today. 

Almost every day you read of someone who "might of been able to defend themselves" had they some form of protection.

This group of firearms are light, concealable and with the right tune and ammunition assert themselves well when you are in danger.
