| Pocket Pistols: Kel-Tec’s .380 And .32 ACPs Versus NAA Kel-Tec’s $345 P3AT .380 ACP pistol fared even better than the company’s $340 .32 ACP Model P32. The new Guardian 32NAA, $450, pushes the envelope, or pocket, too far, in our view.
| Top: Where’s the gun? The advantage of a pocket pistol, especially a flat gun like the Kel-Tec P32, is that it doesn’t cause a bulge in clothing. Bottom: As you can see, the gun prints about the same as a wallet.
| In this test we look at semi-automatic pistols that are small enough to fit into one’s pocket and avoid detection. One such pistol is the proven Kel-Tec P32. Because that gun fared well in a previous test of pocket pistols (October 2001), we wanted to see how the parent company’s slightly larger model in .380 ACP, the Kel-Tec P3AT, fared against the .32.

| .32 Pocket Pistol Update: Buy the Autauga Mark II This gun is a good pocket blaster. In the January 1999 issue of Gun Tests, we gave you an evaluation of three .32 ACP pocket pistols made by Seecamp, Beretta, and North American Arms. Recently Autauga Arms, Inc., entered the pocket .32 pistol market with a bang, and we think the company’s 32 Mark II is a winner. This Prattville, AL-based company offers a stainless-steel, double-action-only semiautomatic with no bells and whistles. You chamber a round and that’s it. The gun is all ready to go. Simply pull the trigger, which requires about 8 pounds of pressure, and the little gun fires each of its six-plus-one shots reliably, and with all the accuracy anyone would want. … |

I would like to know if there is anything North American is willing and
able to do to resolve the ejection problem? I really would rather have
the problem fixed, but lacking that, I would like to know if I may
return the pistol to you for a full refund?
Thank you kindly for your attention to this matter. -- John A*******
