KTOG Forum - color combo.

art sr. YaBB Newbies St. Louis, Cardinals Posts: 9 Gender:	color combo. 11/07/09 at 00:00:01 What is your favorite color combination for your favorite Kel-Tec?. I just bought my wife a P32, gray polymer grip with a black slide. I was looking at the OD green one for myself,but, I'm not real sure I like the green and black combo. I have not seen one with a SS slide yet.

They do not make a SS slide. It's blued, parkerized, or chrome-plated. I prefer the chrome plated P-32 for durability. Some have argued that a weapon for concealed carry should be black and that chrome is too flashy, but if it's concealed properly it doesn't matter what color it is. Plus the chrome is matte, not polished.

I think it looks very good with a black grip, but I'm probably biased.

Your black and chrome combo looks great. I think that is what I would like to have. By the way, How well does that belt clip work for you?. Do you clip it to your belt or to your pocket like a knife would clip?.

The belt clip worked very well for me for a while, but the stress of normal use caused the clip to gradually bend away from the gun. I removed it with the intent of replacing it with another clip, but have never done so. I mostly carry OWB now.

My method of carry with the belt clip was to tuck the gun down the front of my pants and clip it to the waist of my pants, under the belt. The clip would not have spread wide enough to actually clip around my belt.

Some feel that not using a holster to protect the trigger is an invitation for disaster, but I feel that with my "gangster" carry method, the trigger was very well protected by the overlapped denim of the fly of my pants, which is arguably more protection than offered by most fabric pocket holsters.

I can get by with OWB carry most of the time, but there are times when I really miss the belt clip.

Is the navy grip color offered by Kel-Tec or is that something special you had done?. I like it, they look great.

goldenloki has some really wild looking combinations.

They are made by Kel Tec for Sports South Distributors. If your local gun shop gets guns from Sports South you can get them (or do as I did and order em on Gunbroker and have em shipped in to your FFL,faster that way Wink

)
GL can also make your KT any color you'd want. He did a Ruger Mk I for me and it is splendid

I think tactical OD green for the grip, and either stainless steel for the slide (flashy) or tactical dark earth (muted). Probably do my S&W Sigma 9 and SUB 2000 in the same colors as well; nice matched family!

I couldn't resist! 360 and Ljutic: Any tips for taking gun photos? Yours are extra clear. Exposure, settings, lighting, equipment, etc? I liked the idea of the blackberry in the photo to give scale.
