Inspector had his dealings with the Seecamp company in it's early years when service was not what it is today. Service was admittedly of poorer quality then. His beef is legitimate.
Only about 4000 .25acp Seecamps were produced and have become pretty collectable. There are over 50,000 .32acps in circulation, maybe more, and the manufacturing process has changed over the years.
The .380acp is the smallest made and obviously "pushes the envelope" a bit. How many have been made is a guess, maybe 1000 or so.
In all those numbers is a small fraction of unhappy Seecampers, and for all their own good reasons. The company evolved into one of the better gun manufacturers, with excellent customer service now in effect. Seecamp has steadily improved and I think that is an important positive quality for any manufacturer.
Ruger may one day see my business, but I admit, I'm scared off of the LCP because of the KelTec reputation.
Here's a link to some BATF stats...2006 is the latest shown.
