Blue Keltec P-32 DAO Pocket Pistol Description: S# CCR44,.32 ACP, 2 1/2 inch barrel, bright excellent bore. This 2007 manufactured double action only pistol remains in excellent condition showing just a few light scratches on slide and blue plastic frame. I didn't edit out the little holster snafu because I think it's worth discussing. As I mention in the video, the holster you see me using here isn't the one.

The Kel-Tec P-32 is a sub-compact semi-automatic pistol using the short-recoil principle of operation that is chambered in .32 ACP.[5] It was designed by George Kellgren.[6] It is manufactured by Kel-Tec CNC Industries Inc., of Cocoa, Florida and was designed for concealed carry by citizens and by law enforcement officers as a back-up gun.[7]
Design[edit]
Manufactured by Kel-Tec CNC Industries (founded 1991) in the city of Cocoa, Florida, United States, the P-32 has a barrel length of 2.68 inches (68 mm).[8]
The P-32 operates on Browning's short-recoil principle with a locked breech.[9]
Similar in concept to a revolver, the P-32 has no manual safety, relying instead on the long double-action trigger pull and an internal hammer block to provide safe operation.[9] The pistol meets SAAMI guidelines, and will not fire if dropped. The P-32 has passed extensive SAAMI drop-testing at the H. P. White labs, as well as drop tests to military specifications. The trigger must physically be pulled for the gun to fire.[9]
The P-32 is made of the following materials: SAE4140 ordnance steel for the barrel and slide; 7075-T6 aluminum for the internal frame which houses the firing mechanism (machined from a solid block of aluminum); and Dupont ST-8018 ultra-high-impact polymer for the checkered grip, frame, and trigger.[8]

Today tiny 32 autos like the Seecamp, the North American Arms Guardian and the irresistibly slim and light Kel-Tec P32 have found their way into the backup position on the bodies of many police officers and armed citizens alike.
