Kel-Tec P11

The Kel-Tec P11 is a subcompact polymer-framed semi-automatic pistol chambered in 9x19mm, introduced by Kel-Tec CNC Industries in 1995. It was one of the lightest and thinnest 9mm pistols of its era, weighing just 470 grams (16.6 oz) unloaded. The P11 features a 10-round magazine, a 3.1-inch barrel, and a unique unlocking system where the barrel rotates slightly to unlock from the slide. It was Kel-Tec's first handgun design and established the company's reputation for innovative, lightweight pistols. The P11 was a pioneering design in the modern subcompact 9mm category.
