Field strip and clean

By simply removing one pin, you can do a field strip of the P-3AT. Once the pin is removed, the slide easily comes off.

The pictures below are from the Kel-Tec P-3AT users manual which can be found here:p3atv2manual.pdf.

This little pistol seems to perform at its best when clean, so I recommend cleaning it regularly. It takes very little time to do this and will help keep your gun dependable and in good working order.

This is a good time to mention the best cleaning product I have know of, ballistol. Ballistol came recommended to me from an old-timer that had used it for decades. It is a cleaner, lube and preservative, all in one. There are others out there, but ballistol is my pick. You can find it at http://www.ballistol.com/. You can read the complete ballistol story here, beginning in Germany in 1904, the ballistol story.
