That's nice.  I have seen one of those, and you're right; been awhile.

Very nice example,and with the box..

They are asking a "premium" for sure though,according to my 28th issue Blue Book,350.00 is a 100% example..

If I remember correctly,these were made by the same group/family that made the Jennings,Lorcin,etc. brands..

Hey Brenden.  That's good information.  I was wondering about the COP name.

The R9 recoil is not bad...a Seecamp 380...a bit tougher...but that COP...with 357s...OMG!!   :o

I'd prolly wanna see someone else be the sacrificial lamb who fired that one first.  Just because they built it don't necessarily mean it was a good idea.

Looks GREAT...nice fit & finish, though.

That would look good, but $650 is a little steep!    ;D  Then again, if you want it, you want it.    :)

I'll bet it's right at home with the Downsizer WSP .45.     ;)

Re. the COP 357 it seems the operative words are, "the now defunct COP Inc. of Torrance CA." The landscape is littered with well intentioned palm rockets; it is a tough business.

I've got one that I bought when they first came out  in the late seventies/early eighties.
Bad grip angle or something, because it really stings with 357s.   Four shots was enough for me.  And I was raised on 44mags.

I have seen 3-4 of these for sale as of late,tells me that the aren't shooters,but they are sellers!! ;)

I have shot one,should have bought one to add to my meager "collection"of small pistols,but I will not pay 800.00!! :o

I was told by a very wise man:  If you want something really, really bad, ask yourself this question;  can I live without it?  If the answer is YES, then, live without it.

I most of the time forget to ask myself that question.  This time I remembered!    ;D

No I never did. That was 28-30 yrs ago.  I was too macho for that then.
Now I'm smarter, I think I have one of those gloves around here somewhere. ;)

I'm sure a lot softer.  I'm not sure exactly which safe the that quad barrel is stashed in the back of.  I haven't seen it in over 20 years.

If I come across it, I will give it some range time with the padded glove and post a range report.

Post by: Reinz on July 09, 2010, 01:47:19 PM
Well I spent 4 hour hours going through 3 safes looking for the "COP" 4 barrel.  Before I could get to last corner where  I think it may be, I realized I could not find my 32 Seecamp.

I was looking for it because I just bought  a holster from yankee2500.
I found the 25 Seecamp, but not the 32.  

So I was off chasing down other rabbit holes and am quite upset.

I sure it will turn up later.

Sure hope you find the Seecamp .32; and like you say, sure it will turn up as well as the "COP" .357.
Title: Re: Haven't seen one of these in a while
Post by: Reinz on July 09, 2010, 02:17:19 PM
Oh yea, one good thing about safe cleaning, I found THREE Rohrbaugh holsters and a mag pouch I had completely forgot about.  
And two were Grahams.

And to think, I was just getting ready to order a Meco Shark.

Sorry Robert, maybe later.

Title: Re: Haven't seen one of these in a while

Keep looking for that "COP" .357.  You may find something else!    ;D

If you find that "COP"  4 barreler, and want to sell it, send me a PM or even the Seecamp .25.    :D

I'll keep it in mind, you never know.

Are the 25 Seecamps  unusual/hard to find ?
Title: Re: Haven't seen one of these in a while
Post by: kjtrains on July 15, 2010, 11:24:47 AM
I haven't seen a Seecamp .25 for sale so they must be scarce.  My thoughts are you should keep it, being they're not made anymore.  

Saw where one had sold on the Seecamp Forum, but it was after the fact.
Title: Re: Haven't seen one of these in a while
Post by: Reinz on July 15, 2010, 11:31:40 AM
Obviously they are only a collectors item, who would carry it?
Maybe a grandmother.

I had two at one time, just had to have some other gun at a gun show and traded.  At the time, it was "just a .25" to me, you know, useless.  So I let it go cheap.    
That was when the .32 LWS was the rage.

Now, I appreciate it, regardless of caliber.
Title: Re: Haven't seen one of these in a while
Post by: kjtrains on July 15, 2010, 11:39:54 AM
You got it right.  With the Seecamp .25, caliber doesn't matter; it's the gun that some just want, for whatever reason.
