Default Re: The most unreliable handgun you have owned

Kel-Tec P3AT, .380. Wonderful to carry, but I had FTFs and it disassembled itself while firing a couple times. The first time that I took it out, the guide rod bracket thing fell out of the slide, and I couldn't find it. At about the 250 round point, the hammer spring broke. Many of the parts, including the aluminum frame in the grip, were peened pretty badly, and I only shot standard pressure ammo through it. I couldn't trust the pistol, and sold it through the KTOG classified board.

I bought a Kahr PM9 to replace the KT, and I love that pistol. Slide locks back when the mag is empty, it works, and I don't see any peening after about 800 rounds.
