My P-32 came with just one mag. Now, on a gun that size I'm not likley to carry a spare (if I felt I had to, I'd probably be better off with my Glock 19 :twisted: ) but a spare would be nice for practice.

Guess I also should have asked where I can order one over the web

The one mag that came with my P-3AT --- IS MY SPARE MAG ----, for my Kimber .45acp.... The old "New York Reload"....

Seriously if the P-3AT or P-32 were my primary firearm, then I might carry a spare mag for it.

Order them direct from Kel-Tec.

SPARE MAG.

Get a spare mag and a spacer from k/t for h/p ammo. I have several spares and since these are my primary weapons I carry 2 guns and a couple of mag's. I know most of these weapons are relaible, but things have been known to break so I just carry a spare gun. Also "reloading" is much quicker by just pulling your other gun.

Shootist,

Shootist, your avatar owns. That's one of my favorite movies of all time. Brilliant acting, indie film that states life unordinary.

Avatar?

Grin - Thanks Charger01. Its really one of my favorite movies - especially the last shootout at the end.

If you like 1911's (as much as I do) you have to get "The Way of The Gun", where my Avatar came from.

The two "anti-hero's" coming through the door with 1911's at the ready - grin, classic!

1911 lovers also need to take in "Last Man Standing" with Bruce Willis.
Fun fun fun!

I'd sell that piece of crap nu-western faster than Matrix:revolutions.
In fact, anyone that want my DVD, starting price- 5 bucks.

It's not a "Western", it's a gangster movie set in the 30s.

Last Man Standing?

Its been gone over again and again on various gun boards... :twisted: ...but

Things about "Last Man Standing" that tweak 1911 owners
(including myself) seem to be the "bottomless mags" Willis carries and the fact that the 1911 is seen as a "death ray" (ie guys getting shot do double back flips over and over.

I like the actors and the story is cool and of course its a great showcase for the 1911, just seems the gunplay realism is a little too Hollyweird for me.

Not so "Way of the Gun"...the last gunfight seems nicely gritty and realistic (witness one of the protaganists doing a one handed re-load, pulling the mag out with his teeth and then slamming a fresh one home while the gun is held between his legs) - I could almost sympathize with that scene.

Although I admit, it seemed liked del Toro and his collegue also at times had the "bottomless mag syndrome" that afflicts Holllyweird sometimes.

James Caan using an SP 101 in the closing gunfight was a nice touch. Made me glad I owned one

I know, I know, his guns don't run out of ammo, especially during the first gunfight when he's bodily lifting the bad guys off the floor with a wall of .45 slugs...
BUT...
Notice him loading about 20,000 magazines for the final confrontation, and -
I view movies as a form of Entertainment and give them a bit of poetic license, being in the entertainment business myself...
If I had to write my characters so that every SINGLE detail complied with it's real-world counterpoint my writing would be boring indeed.
Furthermore, having BEEN in a couple of gunfights... I've honestly had my share of reality on-screen, thanks.

Gunfight?

So Flyer, are you going to keep us hanging? You've been in a couple of gunfights? Or is it something you don't talk about?

 

[Flyer]

Folks who know me pretty well know my past history... not something I wish to discuss, really.

[Gun_Nut_2k1]

More of a pulp Gangster movie in IMHO. Liked it almost as much as Starship Troopers, a Pulp Sci Fi movie.

 

[gazpacho]

Watch Hardboiled.

'Nuff Said.
