MY SEECAMP .32

For I truly don’t remember how many years, I’ve been carrying a Seecamp .32. When we had the holster business, the first Pocket Natural front pocket holster we made was for a Seecamp .32 and I still use a holster that was handmade for me by two guys who worked for us. Now, I have other small handguns, of course, small handguns that I truly like. For example, the North American Arms Guardian .380 with Crimson Trace LaserGrips is a terrific handgun that I carry a lot. The NAA Pug .22 Magnum is a fine ultra-close range handgun.

My little Seecamp was with me the other day when my son-in-law and I went to The Firing Lane in Bogart, Georgia, to do some of the testing on a couple of firearms that’ll be showing up either in my GUN WORLD column, “Field Issue,” or my DILLON BLUE PRESS column, “Ahern Under The Gun.” Like a lot of people who write gun articles, I shy away from gun cleaning until absolutely necessary. My little Seecamp .32 hadn’t been cleaned in three years or so and the magazine had been loaded with the same Winchester Silvertips for two or three years. I put the magazine in the pistol – the gun was unloaded to take it into the range, of course — chambered a round and fired out the magazine without a hitch. I loaded the pistol after the range session and it’s in my pocket as I write this. That Seecamp .32 is a good gun.

That holster looks well worn! I bought one from you after waiting 2 years to get my seecamp. (When was that. Around 1990 ish?).

Were they all handmade? I never really carried so mine still looks new!

Yes, the holsters were all handmade. The rough side out leather would eventually develop a dark patina from being worn in a pocket. Jerry's holster was with him every day for many years as you can see from that photo. Sharon

Hello. Just tripped over you today as I just received my 3rd 32 Milford... Are your holsters still available? Thank you as I ALWAYS appreciate any Seecamp info found.. Doc

Sorry Doc, but the holsters for your Seecamp are no longer available. Both Jerry and I always had a Seecamp available because despite their size they always proved reliable.

Thanks for your comment,

Sharon
