Check it out- http://www.kel-tec.com

Note that the P-40 is missing from the "Products" link.

What would take a nine-round magazine?

Well, it is a vast improvement over that mess they had! You're right, no specs, etc. on the P-40. (Probably should be discussing this in the P-40 area of the BB.) I did find the comments on the Recoils page of Dynamics under Information interesting. To wit:

"The P-40 is on the borderline of what a human can endure in sectional recoil and velocity.
Many customers experience feeding problems, as the rounds cannot come up fast enough
from the magazine.
Only shooters with strong and bony hand structure can reliably handle
self loading pistols with these dynamic properties......"

Do you suppose they are rethinking the P-40?

I saw that about the P-40 recoil as well. Either the website is still under construction or they decided to drop the P-40. I would guess they decided to drop it.

This website is much improved, the last one was pretty pathetic.

Looks like the P-32 lost a lot of it's power. Now it's wrong in the other direction.

Cuervo,

The P-40 uses a 9 round magazine.

Spoke to Cliff at KT this morning, the P-40 is history. Accessories will still be available.

Alamo, that's why I brought it up. If they are dropping the P40, why mention the 9 round magazines in the description of the P11?

It's a new website, probably just an error. Doesn't really make any sense, they don't offer a 9 round magazine for the P-11. The P-40 magazine will work in a P-11 I've heard.
I noticed the P-40 magazine is offered under the P-11 accessories.
