I just returned from Shooter's Station in Conroe, and put about 150 rounds through my P3AT.

It did not like the Winchester 95gr FMJ Target Load. I had all kinds of FTF's and FTE's with it. The moment I switched to the Sellier & Bellot 92gr FMJ Target Load, I had absolutely no problems. It fired without a hitch using the S&B Ammo.

As a carry round I use the Speer Gold Dot in my .45, and had to put some through the .380 to check them out. The P3AT ran perfectly with the Gold Dot. Not a singlt hitch.

Just so you know that the P3AT is a picky gun. Different ammo, different performance. And I've never had a problem with Winchester ammo before.

Have fun with the new little shooter!

Well, I must be one of the lucky ones. I have a P3AT gen2, and have had no problems with it at all. Except for the first time I had it at the range, and had a couple FTF's due to not holding the little thing firm enough. After learning that lesson, I have had no probs. It's a good little gun in my experience.

I can't carry yet (packet in process), but I have a couple options to do so.
