Do you want to see a doublestack 3at?

Now that IS an interesting thought. What about just carrying more magazines?

Well, this brings us back to the age-old question of which is better: length or width ;D We can't have 10 rounds single stacked because that would be too long. We can't double stack them either because that would make it too much like a P11. :

 

I like it the way it is. It does what it is supposed to do. Remember, a well placed bullet is worth a lot. Practice, practice, practice--that is the key to a well placed shot. Then, six will be enough. But then, Wild Bill Hiccock carried two!

I have often thought a stack and a half would be just about right. Just add a little width and two rounds.

 

I like it the way it is. Any wider and some people might think I am/was happy to see them.  ;D
If I did own such a weapon.
My body type is such that "wider" would print in pocket carry.......................

I too am happy with the width. Thick pocket pistols don't fit in pockets well, and why carry a .380 IWB when you could have a 9mm (or .40)?

 

No.

 

Definitely not! The size and weight of the P3AT are it's greatest features.

 

this reminds me of a friend of mine who is into muzzle loading. Center line, high teck , powder pellets, electric ignition... I told him of these new fangle cartriges that have the primer, charge, and bullet all in one, and the gun will load your next shot for you! It seems to me that the p3 is an extream. what makes it good is its extreamness. I got a 9mm that holds 15+1, but it donsn't fit in the pocket. With practice you should be able to load a new mag as quickly as you could do a New York reload. As long as you reload when the last round is chambered, but before it is fired, you don't re-rack. I will say that if the second mag was 10 rounds that might be a neat thing to have in my left pocket.

 

Nope! I'm much more interested in simply seeing enhancements/improvements to the P3AT, P11 & PF9.


Take care...

 

I vote no also. I'm very happy with the size, weight and concealibility of the gun as is.

 

I too am happy with the configuration of the P3AT. The only think I'd like to see is a pinky extension included with the mags. I mean right out of the box so I wouldn't have to buy one. Other than that, leave it alone.

Like with anything, you start adding this and that and before you know it, it not the same thing! It's something completely different.

 

If you went to a thicker grip you might as well carry a bigger gun since the grip is the part that makes the gun harder to conceal. IMO , the P3AT is perfect in all its lightweight and thinness glory.

 

No to the double stack. As a BUG it's not necessary, and if I used it as a primary, an extra mag would be easier to conceal.

 

NO!

It is what it is.

Anything with more rounds wouldn't fit in a pocket without printing.
And it would get heavier.

Bottom line = If 7 rounds won't get-R-done, you probably should have brought a shotgun or rifle to the gunfight.

I like the 3at like it is, you could just carry extra magazines
