Editor’s Note: Weighing in at just 6.6 ounces and measuring 0.75 inches wide, the KelTec P32 is the smallest semi-automatic centerfire handgun on the market. Despite its diminutive size, the P32 still offers an impressive 7+1 capacity and uses a short-recoil operating system. A 5-pound double-action-only trigger pull rounds the features out. Designed for deep concealment, the P32 is ideal for a variety of carry situations and styles.

By The Numbers
Accuracy
For a little gun, it’s easy to control, and that helps with practical accuracy. Don’t expect to win any contests, but it’s no belly gun by any means.
Reliability
Pull the trigger, and it goes bang — not much to it.
Customization
You can add a magazine extension, a laser, and grip texture, but not much else. A company called Performance Shooting Enhancements makes some ingenious replacement sights that I might have to invest in.
Ergonomics
A tiny grip is necessary for concealed carry but not great for your hand. The weapon is simple, with just a magazine release to speak of. The last-round hold open is a nice touch, as is the lightweight racking slide.

FINAL VERDICT
"I wouldn’t carry the P32 as an EDC. It does, however, serve well as a special-purpose carry gun. When you need something extremely tiny and crazy lightweight, the P32 is tough to beat. Drop it in your pocket, load it with FMJs, and you’re good to go." - Travis Pike
