Kel-Tec P-11 9mm Luger Subcompact DAO, 3.1 in Barrel, 10+1, Discontinued, Made in USA
This Kel-Tec P-11 is a discontinued, American-made 9mm subcompact produced from 1995 to 2019. Notable for bringing a double-stack 9mm format to a light, polymer-bodied package, it combines a 3.1 in barrel, 10+1 capacity, and a DAO system with an internal hammer. Its compact 5.6 in overall length, 4.3 in height, 1.0 in width, and approximately 14 oz unloaded weight make it a historically significant entry in early double-stack subcompact design.
