The part that's called Canada  ROTFLMBO

We can own handguns, but they are very hard to obtain.  You need to take a special course, that is mucho $$$$  Then when you do have one, you are legally only allowed to take it from your property to a official gun range, and you're required by law to let the authorities know when you are doing it.  Waaaay too much hassle.  On the other hand, there isn't many places up here I wouldn't feel comfortable going to. 

Most people still don't lock the door at night...

That's OK Derby City.  There is one thing I've learned.  Don't make fun of someones College football team, and don't try and take away their guns  :D

I will add this.  I've traveled pretty extensively throughout America, and like home, I've never felt unsafe.  Maybe I'm dumb, naive, or both, but I can honestly say I have never thought I needed a protection.

That's what's great about  USA you have a choice to carry or not. I choose to. I'm not bashing your country, or the fact you don't feel the need for a gun, That's Great!!! I think it's a case of "We agree to Disagree" on gun matters, Oh by the way Kel-Tec is a great choice ........If you ever change your mind *cheers*

 If I'm carrying a gun to defend myself its going to be top of the line. One of the big names. Ruger, S and W, Glock, Beretta, Sig, Colt, and a host of others. Not a second rate one.

I have a Glock, Berretta, and S&W in 9mm and .40 but they are to bulky for concealed carry that's why I went with the Kel-Tec. Kahr makes a nice pocket size gun but I didn't want to spend that kind of money
at the time I bought the Kel-Tec.

Sorry, but in my mind, 380 doesn't have enough power for my liking. If/when I'm defending myself or my family, I'm carrying something with allot of knockdown power. I have a sawed off 12ga. here at the house....

     I will not carry any caliber under a .40. My choice is a .45 Colt, .40 Colt Defender, .44mag S&W, .41mag S&W......

     If harms way is headed toward me, I'd want to put them in a bodybag. PERIOD!!!

     If I seem a bit harsh, being a paramedic in the big city of Baltimore has made me that way, by being exposed to the criminal's ways of thinking & seeing what they will do to other folks.....They want, what you have and don't care about a bit about you as a person nor your family.

     I'll do what I have to do to stop them as quickly as I can........Don't send a boy to do a man's job.....

I agree 100% Zumer. For home defense I have a .45 and wouldn't have anything smaller than a .40. The Kel-Tec 380 is only for concealed carry when a I don't want a big bulky noticeable gun strapped to me.

Dont knock a .380 too much, its still a .30 caliber round. I dont carry mine as much as I do my Sig P239, but for something to throw in your front pocket and forget about unless needed, it serves its purpose well. If I am going somewhere that requires me to dress a certain way and its not logical for me to carry my 9mm or .45 on the hip, this thing is perfect. I am the type that says I would rather have a gun ( any gun) and not need it, than to need a gunu and not have it!

Carried a 9mm for years. Never had to use it thank God. Have a .45 and a .44 mag. The kel Tec 380 is still a good gun for pocket or womens purse.

Sorry, didn't mean to knock the weapon or the caliper at all.......Just not enough firepower for my liking.
