How do you grip your Keltec P32?

I find shooting my Keltec P32 to be more painful than shooting my other larger calibur guns. I can't seem to get a good grip on it and it hurts the web of my hand.

Has anyone had a similar problem with this gun . . . does anyone have any suggestions?

thank you.
 
Most surprising. I ain't no big feller with big hands and find the P32 a joy to shoot.
I usually have middle and ring fingers on the grip and the small finger curled-up under the bottom of the magazine.
 
I shoot it the same way as RBK: middle and ring finger on the grip, pinky wrapped under the bottom. We had our IDPA back-up gun match this past Sunday and I shot my P32. I was amazed at how quick it was and how easy it was to shoot it acurately. No problem keeping them in the IDPA target kill zone out to the farthest target, which was only about 7 yards away (back-up gun match, remember). Most importantly, the gun has been 100% reliable.

Regards,
Frank
 
While I have no problem gripping my P32, I put NAA magazine finger extentions on some of my magazines.

They improve the ability to grip the P32, but add just enough size to make it harder to conceal.

That's how I shoot it as well. It doesn't hurt and is very accurate for dumping all 8 shots quickly.

How are you holding the gun?
 
I'll second the pinky-tuck method. However, I've also added NAA Guardian finger extensions to a couple of magazines - gives me a place for my pinky, but I have pretty small hands. And the extensions do make it a bit harder to conceal, but not much.

Kill-gore: I don't have a problem with a two-finger grip. I guess it is that the P32 is so thin that it wobbles in my hand when I fire it.

I am experimenting with a grip where my support hand thumb is pressed (vertically) against the grip and my strong hand thumb is wrapped on top of the support thumb.

This gives me the feel of adding thickness to the gun, which will hopefully eliminate some of my wobbling.

Thanks for your replies.
 
Kill-Gore lol. That's not where my name came from, but I've had it pointed out to me before.

YOU SECRET SERVICE GUYS CHILL

Have you tried just shooting it one handed? That's the fastest and most accurate way I have found to employ it. When I shoot fast I spread the shots a little but they are centered well. When I take my time with a two handed grip and use the sights (try to anyhow) the group tightens some, but hits low and left by about 3 inches at 7 yards. Strange huh?

Anyhow, try shooting it one handed. Just whip it out, point, and let loose until you're out. That's my thoughts anyway.

Actually, I find the Keltec P32 much more comfortable to shoot than my NAA Guardian, the apparent recoil is considerably less. The Guardian gets painful after 50-75 rounds, but I've never had a problem with the Keltec.
