they are accurate where they need to be. 7ft from you to the aggressor. the farthest ive ever shot one of those things was 15 yrds and it would put 5 rnds in about 8 inches. I didnt like the feel of it so i ended up with my current BUG.(back up gun) The S&W BodyGuard .380. Been very impressed with it so far. shot it a 35 yrds the other day and consistently nailed a 12 inch plate 7 out of 7 rnds multiple times. it puts down about a 4 inch group at 15 yrds. Shoot it if you get the chance make a decision from there. The keltecs have been around long enuf all the bugs are worked out.

You know Gunman, your the only person that claims every Kel-Tec they have ever seen has blown up. I know plenty of peole running Kel-Tecs and they have about the same amount of issues as any other brand of gun. Every single band/model of gun out has some guns with issues, thats why you run a gun before you trust it with your life. It's a machine made by humans.

Kel-Tec makes good affordable stuff and the pocket 380 is probably one of the top ranked pocket 380's out. If you can get it for a good price I would jump on it.
