First off,they're on gunbroker for about $450,and you should consider a North American Arms Guardian. Avery well built copy of the seecamp. Better in my opinion.

First off,the .32acp version is $450 on gunbroker.This is a .380acp.Secondly several 380 "mouse guns" were recently tested in American Rifleman magazine (the Seecamp was excluded,presumably since new orders are currently not being taken).The NAA was wrote up as a fine weapon,but had reliability issues.A few others did,as well.I've talked with many other Seecamp owners,and very,very RARELY do you hear any complaints about them.Nuff said.

I'm not sure I understand the 7 or 5 yard comment...I was firing from 7 yards in the video,and scored mostly hits,including one bullseye.If you don't think you could hit a man-sized target at over 5 feet away,maybe you'd be best off just dialing 911 and hoping.

Apologies to "carolinadare"...I clicked on REMOVE instead of REPLY....His/her comment was as follows:It is a "get off me gun", There is not much difference between 21 feet(7yrds.) and 5 yards.. IMO this is a under 5 foot range gun..

Where were you firing that thing? From the looks of it, it must have been is a cow pasture, with all the fly's buzzing around...

[nejitenfan587]

Actually,it's a town slate quarry that was closed a couple decades ago,and is now State property open for public use.Alot of people shoot there. But since you mention it,my family DOES own a beef farm,where I often shoot and hunt.

@TheVert1276 Actually,you do more pointing than aiming...As you mentioned,there are no sights..But Ammo selection can have a BIG effect on how these pistols shoot!! My friend Larry Seecamp (the guy who builds these pistols) not only recommends trying different ammo types from the "Recommended Ammo" list on the company website,but he also says you should test at least a couple of magazines from the lot number of that ammo before trusting it to defend yourself. Ammo can vary from lot # to lot #.

"It's hitting high"...really means your aiming high lol...has nothing to do with the ammo type...The seecamp doesn't even have sights(I own all 3 by the way)....

The waiting list from the factory is up to 2 years. Mine took 18months and just received it 2 weeks ago. Dealers on Gun Broker are asking 2 to 3 hundred dollars over the $795.list. Beautifully engineered, manufactured and finished but mean on the shooting hand. It is a lot different than the .32 Seecamp and the jury is still out as to which one I will carry.

This thing kicks hard and will hurt your trigger finger.

Trust me after firing two magazines fulll you will probably put it away unless you wear a trigger finger glove or wrap your finger with a good bandaid.

@shoopdanerd In most cases,I've noticed that,all other things equal,a shorter barrel DOES seem louder.A great example is shooting a rifle with .22LR ammo,then a pistol. You can't help but notice a BIG difference.

[shoopdanerd]

seems loud for such a small gun. are smaller ones louder than normal sized pistols?

@Joeak74

$450 sounds like the .32 auto version. The .380 should be at least $700 bucks.

I just picked up my .32 and it is a gem . Hand built precision all the way! In case you havent held one...the Seecamp is smaller than the NAA....it is the ultimate pocket pistol for any size pocket.

@patsyd80 I posted this comment under my girlfriend's acct by mistake because she forgot to sign out LOL here it is from my acct created since this was posted:

I've been hit by the casings before,but not the bullet.I know I REALLY DON'T WANT to be hit by the bullet of it.I'm guessing a bad guy won't want to,either.If you DO have to shoot,bullet placement is all important.I'd rather be grazed by a .357 magnum than hit squarely with this little .380
