Kel Tec P3AT DFW area FTF okay
Second Generation P3AT, blued with black plastic. I have only put about 75 rounds through it.
Full disclosure: I had a few misfeeds, always while racking the slide to chamber the first round. I was using PMC FMJ and Cor-Bon JHP ammo.
I already have a First Gen P3AT that works 100% on any ammo, so I know that they can run just fine. On the other hand, I will not carry anything that is not 110% reliable, and I am not inclined to spend a whole lot more time, money or effort on this one. I'm hoping that someone who has some experience with making Kel-Tecs work can jump on this and make it work quickly and easily.
I paid $245 (plus tax etc) for it; if I have to pay another $50 to FedEx it back to Kel-Tec, I will have too much into it to sell.
Anyone interested in taking it off my hands for $200 FTF in the DFW area?

Re: Kel Tec P3AT DFW area FTF okay
Not really interested in a trade, thanks anyway.
I am just north of DFW airport.
Bass Pro in Grapevine is close by and a good meeting place (they have an indoor range if you want to test-drive.
You have a CHL, I take it. PM me for phone info, etc.
Thanks, Rich

I would prefer FTF, bu if that falls through I will ship.
Honestly, on $200 pistol, $20 shipping plus your FFL transfer fees make this a $240-250 deal for you.
If you have an FFL, then you are back to $220, which may be a good deal.
Let me know, Rich

we would be able to avoid FFL since we're both in the state of Tx.

A private party may legally ship a rifle to another private party (non-FFL) within his state, but (I believe) that one cannot legally ship a handgun to a non-FFL.
I know I can ship to a manufacturer (back to Kel-Tec, for instance) but as far as I know, that is the only exception.
Please correct me if I'm wrong; it happens from time to time. :)

As have I. The ATF is not involved in INTRASTATE transfers between non-licensed individuals. State law prevails.
