some help with a kel-tec pistol please...

[jshouse]

i am trying to install the belt clip on my kel-tec and need to remove the frame pins and i have no idea how to get them out.

if anyone is familiar with these pistols, any advice?

Not sure how to install a belt clip. I use a ITP holster for mine. No way am I carrying a pistol with no safety without the trigger being covered.

I put one of these on my Kel Tec and didn't have to remove the pins. You just degrease the side of the dust cover and glue it on, as I recall.

GLUE IT ON?

The two pins press out, one at a time replacing the removed pin with one of the pins provided that are internally tapped. Then you use the two little screws to attach the spring steel clip with a little serviceable lock-tite.

I love mine. It allows a nice in the waist band carry and the trigger is covered with your pants.

I will pull the booklet out in the shop and double check, but I remember replacing the pins with the internally thread ones.

Alright - that was easy. It was in the first place I looked.

be sure and loc-tite them in place, because they will loosen under recoil.

My Kel Tec is a P-32. They give you a little strip of rubber, sealed in plastic,with some serious glue on each side. And a little pouch of some degreasing solvent. You de-grease the dust cover and put the little rubber strip between the dust cover and the clip. Very secure.
