Question for those of you that have both a P3AT and a P11 - Is the length of the trigger pull the same on both?
Let me s'plain; My trigger finger has stiff joints that limit how far I can move the trigger and how heavy a pull I can handle. (It's a long story - look at some of my previous messages if you are interested.)
Now I have a P11 and can't quite pull the trigger - my finger locks up just before the break point. I installed one of 2PP's LHS kits and bingo! I can pull the trigger.
Problem - I want it unmodified to use for concealed carry.
Problem - My grip is wimpy enough that the P11 hurts!

So, if I go to a P3AT - will it solve my length of trigger pull problem?

The P3at is MUCH easier than a P11. I don't know if its much shorter but it is like butter compared to the P11. I say go to the store and try one first.

I have both. Started with the P-11 and hated the trigger pull. Bought a P3AT and love it. the trigger, IMO has a much shorter pull and also much smoother. I have added a mag extenion, a belt clip, a grip sleeve and a ARMA-LASER. it's with me 24/7. On a side note , I have gotten more acustom to the P-11 and am starting to enjoy it also. [I will soon be adding a laser to this gun as well.]

The P-3AT seems to me to have a much nicer trigger pull. It's also a real pocket piece but the P-11 really is too much...both in size and weight. The P-11 is nice for an IWB carry.

Ditto incase someone is keeping score.

Screw the P11. Buy one of these for the best pocket 9mm available.

Would you please enlighten us all and reveal the make and model of the best pocket 9mm available.

Sure, that is the Kahr PM9. Read this review.

"At the 9 mm Luger power level, the PM9 is one of the few true pocket pistols, and one of the most practical carry guns available."

$900!!!!!!!! I'll carry my USP .40 S&W anyday before I pay $900 for a pocket 9mm.

It's NOT $900. Nowhere near that. That's probably the LIST price from when they first came out. I got mine new, out the door for $525 with night sights AND they come with an extra extended magazine. Let's see Kel-Tec do that. Oops! They don't!

And, before anyone brings it up. Yes, I do have a P11...and two P3ATs.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I've been looking for a P3AT locally to try out with no luck - I'll keep looking.
I'll be posting a P11 for sale or trade shortly.

Try looking at the PF9. 9mm. Easier trigger than the P11

 

[Drivebytrucker]

i was just about to ask what the trigger weight is on the KT pf9

 

[k9pound]

P3at is said to have a 5lb trigger pull P11 had 9lb. I didn't find info on the PF 9

 

[adamsesq]

PF9 and P3AT have the same trigger systems so they should be pretty darn comparable on weight/pull.
