KT P-3AT Belt Clip

That two-screw Kel-Tec clip attaches only to the P-11, 9mm pistol. I've never used one, but it looks as if it fits in a very good place, holding the pistol up high enough to allow grabbing it properly.
The one-screw clip is meant for the P3AT. I've used that, and for my taste it attaches in the wrong place. It puts the pistol much too deeply behind the waistband to which it's hooked.
Oh, and by the way, it attaches to the plastic frame, not to the slide.

Day 187 (estimated) carrying with Clip-Draw or KelTec belt clip.... daily

Haven't shot myself yet....

I bought the clip for my P3AT also. I didn't like it. There is nothing protecting the trigger on when carrying this way. Since the P3AT has a fairly light trigger, for a Keltec any way, that bothered me. Especially since the gun is so small and so light that you have a tendency to forget your wearing it. Being the klutz that I am on occasion I worried that I might by some freak of accidental coincidence snag the trigger on a bush, or sharp corner and AD myself. I realize the odds of something like that happening are slim, but I carry this gun everyday. For my own peace of mind I carry in a pocket holster.

No, no, no...you wear the pistol inside your pants, not outside.
If you're using the clip properly, your pants' waistband is the trigger-covering holster. My wife and I tried repeatedly to actuate a clipped-on pistol's trigger, by snagging it on many different projections of many different sizes and shapes, and had absolutely no "success."
Unless you do something extremely negligent and foolish, a properly clipped double-action (or long-trigger-pull) pistol is safe to carry. (The same is not true of single-action semi-autos, however.)

Do you still have the clip? :watching:

I purchesed the kel-tech clkip when i purchased my p3at. The mistake i made was it was the clip that goes on the right hand side of the gun. So i would have to cross my body draw the weapon. I thought it was the only one they had. Already opened the pack and installed it. Dont feel like paying another $20 for the right side one. I will just clip it in my right pants pocket.

I use the clip for my jacket inside breast pockets during spring and autumn. The smaller calibers go into the safe for cold weather.
