I have been having an extraction problem with my p3at. I was sent a replacement extractor (no charge) but still had problems. I contacted Kel-tec and what the rep wanted me to do was to try another extractor (another freebie) and if that did not work, he wants me to send him the slide assembly to check out for repair or replacement. Hey, I am disapppointed with these problems, but the customer service has been fantastic, so I can't complain but so much. Its probably more annoying than anything. However, I am not here to rant, because the folks at KT customer service are doing all that they can to help. I also know it is a great little weapon because I have several buddies that own them and have never experienced any problems whatsoever, and they are LEO who use it as a backup piece.
The question I have is this - If I can manually rack mag after mag by hand and have every round eject without a problem, why will it not do the same under firing conditions? I guess I do not understand the workings of the little KT as much as I do all of my 1911 models. Anyway, just thought I would throw this out there to see what ideas you guys may have.
Hopefully I will make it to the range tomorrow for a test fire session. I will post results as soon as I can.
By the way, please don't ask about limpwristing issues associated with this because that is definately not the issue. Even by KT's admission limpwristing will affect ejection, but will have no impact on the extraction process.
Finally, I want to express how great the CS has been with KT.
