    Woke up this morning and bought myself a gun!

    Today I bought my first Kel_Tec, a P-32 from Gander Mt. They were out of the P3AT as all the other gun shops around here, but I'm happy with it ( I think). I have yet to fire it, just brought it home took it apart cleaned and lubed it. I do have one question for someone else that owns one. Is the barrel suppose to rattle around when the slide is back?

    You lucky man, my quota is full for the month with the purchase of a S&W 637 Airweight. Maybe next month I'll get a Marlin lever action 30-30 or 30-06 that I have my eye on.Big Smile [:D]

    For what it's worth, mine does some. Must be how they are.

       I had keltec 9 once that barrel rattled the same way, think it's pretty normal.

    It's normal for a locked-breech, delayed blowback pistol, common in 9 mm and larger.  The barrel shifts and unlocks the breech, then the slide continues back to cycle the next round.  The barrels of the venerable M1911 and the current M9 both rattle around when the slide is back.  What's important is that they don't rattle when the slide is in battery, which I've seen in old Army .45s.  The T380 and its variants are of simple blowback design and the barrel can be fixed to the frame.

    I thought the song went"Woke up this morning with a wine glass in my hand" but I think I like your lyrics better.

    C'mon, lets do it again!

    I think he was really talking about the theme song from the Sopranos though...


    You woke up this morning. Got yourself a gun.
    Mama always said you'd be the Chosen One.

    She said: You're one in a million you've got to burn to shine,
    But you were born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes.

    You woke up this morning all the love has gone,
    Your Papa never told you about right and wrong.

    But you're looking good, baby, I believe you're feeling fine, (shame about it),
    Born under a bad sign with a blue moon in your eyes.

    You woke up this morning the world turned upside down,
    Thing's ain't been the same since the Blues walked into town.

    But you're one in a million you've got that shotgun shine.
    Born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes.

    When you woke up this morning, when you woke up this morning,
    When you woke up this morning, you got yourself a gun.
