I have been evaluating the Kel Tec PF9 series of weapons for several months now. The one problem I have witnessed is the occasional depression of the mag release while shooting which results in a partially ejected magazine and a gun running dry due to failure to load the next round from the magazine. This has been while shooting the pistol left handed. I occassionally carry a (known to me reliable and accurate) Kel Tec PF9 with Federal Hydra Shock HP'S in a Blade-Tech Nano IWB holster. I carry the spare mag in weak side front pocket. It is light, slim, easy to conceal, and I have confidence in it. It is not in the class of a Glock 17 as a fighting handgun, but it has been realiable and accurate. It has taken me a few hundred rounds of both FMJ and HP to get used to the unique trigger pull (as compaired to a Glock, which is my primary concealed weapon choice).

Looks like a Kel Tec PF9 9mm handgun one shot stop was enough gun in this incident (Zimmerman Florida Incident).

Here is a detailed evaluation of the PF9 as defensive weapon combining value, reliability, and good concealability:

Ther is anot a better pistol that you can conceal no matter what you are wearing than a Kel Tec P3at 380. A shotgun is the ultimate home defense weapon. even an inexperienced shooter can grab a shotgun and point in the general direction. If you are looking for home protection and don't have more than $200 then you should consider the shotgun approach. Not many even cheap pistols for $200 or less out there. If you are dead set on not using a shotgun then you should probably consider a bat. It is closer to your price range and if you are inexperienced you will probably more effective.
