What would be your choice? Kel-Tec P-9, P-11 or Taurus Mil Pro 111? Why?

Biased Opinion:

Taurus, because I've been so terribly impressed with my PT 24/7. As of now, 200 rounds through her (mixed ammo) without a single solitary issue. Great weight, great balance, great materials...phenominal firearm.

Have you also looked at the Sccy ? Sccy

And your purpose for this purchase?

I had a pt140 and it was a great gun. Your talking a big size difference though. The keltec is more of a pocket gun where as the Taurus would need to be in some sort of concealed holster.

That was something I also meant to mention but forgot.

Not sure I really understand your thoughts as the MilPro 111 is only 1/4" longer and 1/4" wider. This is from both websites specs.

Yeah, just saw one at a pawn shop last week. Think I want something with more of a track record.

Now that our shat Governor in Wisconsin said he is not running again, I am hopefull for CC to pass and that is what it would be used for.

Have you held them? The keltec seemed so much smaller and lighter to me.

 

[Pistol Pete]

Not the Kel-Tec yet......still trying to locate one locally.
These measurements are for the 3" barrels on both. Maybe that Taurus had a longer barrel. and I am aiming for a more slender gun. Thanks

I have a Kel-Tec P-11. While it is small, reliable, and easy to conceal, it has a strong recoil and a long trigger pull. I have not shot the Taurus, but I have held it. I am sure the Taurus would be much easier to shoot, but it is a bigger gun. If being able to carry in your pocket is not an issue, I would look at the Taurus over the Kel-Tec.

 

[whiskeytangofoxtrot]

I have the PT-111 and the recoil is not bad and I have a Kel Tec P3AT as a BUG-24/7 pistol. The kel tec has a warranty like Hi Point and Taurus has Original owner lifetime warranty, which means you send in a warranty card. I haven't used the warranty on either one. The Taurus in a kholster and kel tec in a wallet holster works for me.

 

[grantw9066]

I WOULD GO WITH THE KELTEC. I OWNED A P-11 AND CURRENTLY OWN A 3AT. EXCELLENT GUNS NEVER A PROBLEM WITH EITHER. THE PF-9 FIXES THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WITH THE P-11 WHICH WAS THE LONG TRIGGER PULL. THAT IS ACTUALLY THE GUN I PLAN TO BUY NEXT.

 

[Pistol Pete]

Thanks for the info. WHY are you yelling at me though?? (Turn caps off) :angel:

 

[mrwhite4]

If I might make a suggestion?

http://www.gunblast.com/Taurus-PT709.htm

bout the same size as a PF9 and about the same price to. I haven't owned any but i'd like to eventually get a small 9mm and I'd prolly go with the PT709, looks pretty neat.

 

[Loopster]

I biased toward Taurus, too, but the Kel-Tek is oka.

 

[gtv]

I really like my Kel-Tec PF-9 thus far. I went with the PF-9 over the P-11 due to the lighter trigger and the single stack mag makes the PF-9 slimmer.

THANKS, I'll for sure check it out.

 

[wrxty]

I was going to recommend that too. sounds like its just slightly bigger than the pf9. I may haft to look into it myself!

 

[47_MasoN_47]

I don't have any experience with the Taurus. I'd stay away from the P-11 if I was you, but the PF9 is a great gun and I can highly recommend that one.

Why stay away from the P11. I have a P11 and it has been totally reliable.
