I have both the Kel Tec P3AT and the Ruger LCP .380 and I'm very happy with both of them. I had the P3AT and installed a crimson trace laser on it and gave it to my wife. Then I ordered a Ruger LCP for a back up pistol for myself, I liked the slide lock on the Ruger that the Kel Tec doesn't have. That's the only difference I can really see between them They both are pretty accurate to 10 to 15 yards. You'll be happy with either one. The Ruger is around $40 more.

The biggest question for me is the last one (prepared to execute). I think I would be able to respond with deadly force if it was necessary but I guess that's something we will never really know unless we are faced with that situation. What worries me a little is "would I hesitate too long"??? I hope not, but I certainly wouldn't take someone's life either unless I felt it was absolutely the only choice. Anyone else ever thought of those same things? Lot of responsiblity comes with carrying a weapon....
Exactly!!!

ive pocket carried a keltec32 for 2 or 3 years, great little gun, deadly accurate at 7 yards. I also have a p11 which i carry sometimes, also a great gun. One suggestion, buy the belt clip....i have it on both of mine and its nice, allows waistband or sob carry and holds well. Also you can get an extended magazine for the 32/380.....if you have big hands it makes it fit your palm better and it gives you an extra 4 or 5 shots. Ive got nothing but good things to say about both of mine.
