Taking it apart is a snap too. The gun is oily and a bit dirty and looks to have been fired a couple of times, but will clean up nicely methinks.

Now for the fun of customizing and polishing it up!

As for the HS2K, I didn't get one. He ran out of pistols before customers, so I bowed out for the sake of the brother next in line. Next time. Unless I get a P11 first of course! :D

The gun is very dirty. oil running all over da place. can't have that! and the barrel is so cute! I just want to polish it mirror brite like a little peice of jewelry!

Now on to a carry pack for it. The Blue KT pack seems worthless to me. Boxster seems expensive for me, so I will most likely get one of those desantis jobs. fun to outfit a new gun!

Go to North American's web site (www.naaminis.com) and order the Desantis pack for the Guardian. The P32 and one mag fits this great and it's only $19.00.

Take a look at the other thread by Cruzer for some additional product reviews.

1) Exchanged slide/barrel for chrome
2) Bought DeSantis pack
3) Bought leather pocket holster/mag holder from Graham's leather
4) Bought Uncle Mike's #1 pocket holster and did the "Pussball" mod to fit extra mag
5) Bought two extra mags
6) Modified one mag with NAA extension
7) Modified other mag with +1 extension
8) Shot 100 rounds silvertips, 100 rounds PMC, and 200 rounds Fiocchi (no hiccups)

Good luck!

You bought the DeSantis pack from NAA? How do you like it? I'm sure glad you, Mike, and I figured this thing out. It is an excellent deal for $19.

I love the DaSantis pack. I tried to buy one directly from DeSantis as listed on their website. They said I would have to buy it from Beretta (private labeled for the Tomcat). I called Beretta, and after telling me twice that no such item existed, they quoted me $39.99 - ouch!!! I had looked at the one on NAA's website several times, and after seeing you and Mike post you reviews, I ordered one. I like it because it is perfect for carrying your P32 in a brief case. Where did you get your +1 mag extension from? I have considered ordering a couple from Kel-Tec, but instead I ordered the NAA extensions when I ordered the pack. I may switch back to the KT extensions since they will fit better in the DeSantis pack.

Got my +1 from my local dealer for $14.95(they have been on backorder at Kel-Tec for at least two months). The +1 extension definitely helps, although it isn't as good for control as the NAA extension. I'm keeping both (1 on each mag) so I can pick and choose, and practice with both.

If this is the one, I don't see the point. Do you carry your P-32 like this or do you just use it for storage?
===========================================
Just saw the other thread on this pack. Now I get it.

1) Great way to carry in my briefcase (doesn't say Kel-Tec on the front, isn't baby blue, and looks like a Palm Pilot case; clips to a side pocket)
2) Great way for my wife to carry in her purse (keeps the lint and dust out of MY gun), and clips upright to a side pocket)
3) Holds 16 rounds total (8 in gun, 8 in 7+1 mag)
4) Goes from briefcase to safe without having to handle the gun or mags (unlike my leather)
5) Goes from my briefcase to the glove box, my desk at work, my wife's purse, safe, etc. without anyone ever wondering what it is (it's a PalmPilot right?)
6) Yep. Sometimes I carry it on my belt (when my pockets are full w/ keys, wallet) or clip to my shorts that have no pockets
7) I have been known to clip it to the sun visor in my car
8) I can lock it for storage in plain view, knowing that a cheap pair of scissors won't cut into it like the crappy KT pack
9) Fits my P32 with a +1 extension on it
10) Great for carrying to the range...carry it dirty, from the range, in the KT pack

There, whew, 10 points for buying a $19, ballistic nylon, pistol+extra mag, DeSantis Belt Pack.

The magazine extensions are two items below the gun rug on Guardian accesories page.
