Seecamp preorder - who wants one?

[CaseHardened]

I think it does. Even on a last-ditch gun that you just stuffed into your pocket because you're running somewhere you should have the ability to reload in case your five or six shots are spent or you have a malfunction. That European mag release is a joke. It was put there to build a gun cheaper.

Seecamp Senior was a master gunsmith with German Training, and so a European Catch is what he was familiar with.

I believe the European Catch was decided more to keep it small than as a money-saving measure.​

Honestly, if you think you're going to need more than six shots, you probably should be carrying a larger piece. IMHO.

There are .25 ACPs I'm similar size that have a proper mag release.

An American style button release is better but I don't think it's as big a deal as you make it out to be. Especially not on a point blank pistol like a Seecamp. This is, afterall a role to which a little ol' J frame revolver or similar is well suited.

And that revolver can be reloaded fairly quickly with speed strips. An American style button isn't going to make it that much thicker.

So you think loading a revolver with speed strips is faster than automatic with a heel release?..................

On a one fingered gun, yes.

It's totally inaccessible dug in there in your palm. You can definitely load a revolver quicker with a speedloader.

THIS picture is why you want one.

Not because the Seecamp is inexpensive (it's not)

Not because the Seecamp is fun to shoot (it's not)

But because it is SMALL. Very small.

EZ to conceal and no bother to carry in any situation.

No Derringer has six shots.​

You used to be able to order directly from the manufacturer. Of course the handgun would go to your FFL first.

And you could choose your own Serial Number for minor extra cost. And it could be Letters, Numbers, anything but the PRINCE SYMBOL. Mebe you still can.

The Kel-Tec P-32 is under $200 NEW ?

I may need one.

I am partial to stainless handguns. From what I can see, North American Arms of Provo, UT essentially copied the Seecamps.

And they are a bit less expensive.

A few years ago, I happened upon a used NAA Guardian in .32 ACP, and picked it up for kicks. It is definitely a snappy little gun. However, mine also came with the factory optional 10 round extended magazine. And for me and my big mitts, that makes all the difference. I can grip it as easily as a full size 1911. If it weren’t for the extended mag, I would not bother with it.

Even with the 10 round mag, it is as small as a pack of smokes. It is definitely a specialty item meant for up close and personal work. They do make specialty hollow point ammo just for it too.

NAA-32 GUARDIAN

NAA notes that the 10 round mags may have difficulty with hollow point ammo, but I have not had any issues, even after putting over a couple of hundred rounds through mine.

Wallet holsters are cool.

I've always wanted one of these in .32acp I have a weird fondness for .32acp and stupid small guns like this.

Guns that are for oh shit I need to run to the gas station to pick something up at 2am in my pajamas and dont feel like grabbing a real gun, and have the understanding if I run dry well I atleast put up a fight.

Butttt they are super pricey for something i almost never need, and personally I would never give any money to Suarez

No.

Reach up, strip mag, reinsert.

No way a speed strip/ loader is faster.

I want a little stainless steel .25 ACP for no reason other than when I was a kid my dad had one for under cover work and I fell in love with it. It was a POS. He gave it to a friend of mi es dad. I’ve been wondering if he still has that gun kicking around. I’d like to have it back for no good reason other than sentimental.
I don’t even remember the brand and neither does my dad. It was stainless with I’m sure fake pearl grips. I always loved it.

Here is my colt junior that I nickel plated. I have an ankle holster for it.

Yes. If you grab the gun with you support hand by the slide. The magazine release is buried in your palm otherwise.
