How much is a slightly used Keltec p11 worth? Have they moved into the reliable for ccw category?

250 or so but I wouldn't carry it. I had a bunch of problems with every Kel-tec I've owned. My P11 stove piped a lot.

I agree with the $250 amount. About carrying it, why not? Try it out, work with it, get it reliable, and there you go. It is a good lightweight ccw gun. It's not a GLOCK, but it's not a bad gun, either. Kel-Tec customer service is well-known as excellent, too.

+1.

250 if it still looks very new and nice. I have never had a single problem with any Keltec, just with some ammo in them. The only problem I have with a p11 is it is so close to size of a baby glock I dont carry it.

my keltec was reliable. Ball point ammo (cor-bon) was much better than hollow-point ammo in the ones i've owned

Maybe I'm just lucky or tngw1500se was unlucky, but I trust my Kel-Tec. The P-11 has been in production for 16 years and a lot of folks over on KTOG are nuts about theirs.

Here's some decent info about them (real quick read):

My experience with Keltec's exaclty.

And I was very excited when I noticed Keltecs. Great price and American made. I had high hopes.

There are some that claim their Keltecs have never failed. I'd love to have one of those cause I think a P11 is a great size for a pocket gun and I like the 9mm over a 380 any day.

But my experience is they aren't a range gun, they aren't a carry piece and they aren't a safe queen.

Well you could always get one reliable shot off with them for sure maybe 3 on a bad day. Perhaps that would be sufficent.

I have owned a variety of Kel Tec firearms over the years and I have never had any problems out of any of them including my p-11 that I carried as a BUG for a while. $250 sounds like a fair price as long as it is in good shape. Just take it out and shoot plenty rounds of your carry ammo to make sure there are no issues with functioning. If there are, try a different type of ammo and/or contact Kel Tec to see if they can get it running properly.

have you thought about PF9?

[seez52]

I carry a P-11 frequently, and shot it frequently. Factory ammo and reloads and it works like a champ. I must say though, with full power ammo my hand gets tired much quicker than my desire to shoot it. It's quite peppy in recoil. Personally I like the trigger better than a Glock.

The two Kel Tecs I own run just fine. Run enough rounds through it to know it is reliable but you do that with any carry gun. I will agee that they are not a range gun but if it works it's a fine carry gun.

I actually picked up a PF9 today. Took it to the range and ran 125 rounds through it. No problems to report. I paid 259 NIB....however.....its is "wallet brown" so i think that lowered the price a bit
