The PF-9 retains the best features from our P-11 and P-3AT pistols combined into the flattest and lightest single stack 9mm configuration ever made. The barrel, locking system, slide stop, assembly pin, front sight, recoil springs and guide rod are adapted from the P-11. The PF-9 is nearly identical to the P-11 in length and height and shares the same exterior controls. The shorter trigger system with integral hammer block and the extraction system are adapted from the P-3AT. Just like the P-11, the PF-9 will accept +P ammunition, however, not with continuous use. The rear sight is a new design and is adjustable for windage with the supplied allen wrench as well as for elevation with the use of shims (not included). The included 7 round rectangular magazine is supplied with a finger extension base plate and numbered holes. The under barrel accessory rail shares the dimensions of the MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rail although there is only one locking notch in the forward position.

Kel-Tec PF-9 Features

The now discontinued Kel-Tec PF9 is a sub-compact polymer framed pistol chambered in 9mm.  It has a 3.4 inch barrel and a trigger with an impressively light 5 pound pull.  The 7 round capacity puts it on par with other sub-compact pistols on the market.

Kel-Tec PF-9 Capacity

Shipped with a 7 round single-stack, flush-fit magazine, the Kel-Tec PF-9 is also able to accept 7 round magazines with extended floor plates for a better grip or 8 round magazines built with a +1 round extension.

Kel-Tec PF-9 Ergonomics

Ergonomics
The Kel-Tec PF-9 is a very small 9mm pistol.  Even with an extended floor plate on the magazine, getting more than 2 fingers to wrap around the grip is not possible for many users.  With a width of only .88 inches (7/8ths of an inch), this pistol may be uncomfortable to shoot.  The controls are very low-profile and can be difficult to engage, and the square grip texturing does little to assist the user in controlling the recoil.

Kel-Tec PF-9 Fit & Finish

The Kel-Tec PF-9 is a pistol with a unique look, although everything Kel-Tec makes looks unique.  The screwed-on extractor is a bit of an eyesore for some while the square texturing pattern on the grip looks to be more of an aesthetic choice over a functional one.  All of the parts are well machined and coated, and the long 5-pound trigger pull of this double-action pistol definitely place it in high regard compared to other micro-compact 9mm pistols on the market.
Fit and Finish

Kel-Tec PF-9 Concealability

Concealability
The Kel-Tec PF-9 was clearly designed to be concealable.  With a height of only 4.3 inches and a width of .88 inches, the PF-9 is incredibly easy to conceal just about anywhere such as in a handbag, inside the belt, in a shoulder holster, or even in an ankle holster.  The low-profile controls and the contours of the slide and frame allow the pistol to be drawn from a holster while minimizing interference from clothing or other objects.
