Dunno about the Guardian.

My P-32 is a total pleaser and sweetheart. Since it's got a 100% warranty, you'll always have a 100% P-32 whether or not you send a million or two rounds downrange. I can't buy the statement that the P-32 is of lesser quality since it gets as many stars as there are in judging that, IMO.

The design and implementation of the Kel-Tec pistols is absolutely ingenious, and the tiny size and ultra light weight of the P-32 is remarkable.

Reliability doesn't get better than 100%, and that's what mine is. It gets gigged as an "up close and personal" mouse gun, but I can consistently make aimed shots "between the eyes" from 50 feet.

There's no higher recommendation I can give to the P-32. You should probably arrange to shoot each one, maybe side by side, to form your own opinion.
