Hey everyone,
I had bought a Keltec p32 about a week and a half ago and finally got to take it to the range on Monday. I have a few questions for some people who have had a little more experience with this pistol. Here is what happened:
- first of all, the pistol shoots really nice, and really straight. But after about 60 rounds, the pistol started having failures to extract. (Note, up until that point, there was not a single ftf or fte) It seemed like it worsened the dirtier the gun got. Like it was getting too sticky in the breech face of the barrel for the extractor to do it's job.
The question is, I understand the purpose of this gun, that it is not designed to go through hundreds of rounds at a time like my Ruger is. But, I have also heard of people who were able to put 350+ rounds through with not a single ftf's or fte's.
- I'm picking up some 400# and 600# sandpaper tonight and I'm going to do the "illustrated" fluff and buff described on the keltec owners group website. Although I don't have a Dremel tool, but the description says that the Dremel tool is not 100% necessary.
- Do I have a problem, or am I expecting this thing to go beyond it's original design (which I am assuming, is reliably put 7-8 rounds of bullets in Mr. Bad Guy)?
thanks!
