It's just cool to have both!    ;D At least, for me!    :)


Sounds logical to me ---

if you can afford it -  and/or

justify it.

I think it just comes down to wants!    ;D  And, of course affordability comes into play, for sure.

Of course HOW BAD one wants it.

If bad enough, we usually find a way.

Just like yankee2500  wanting an Aug/Microtec bad enough to sell his Seecamp to obtain it.

Quite the sacrifice I might say.

As kjtrains says "it just comes down to wants"

John never really liked his Seecamp; I could tell.    ;D  However, I like 'em!

Seecamp over Rohrbaugh 380 for the following reasons:
Size
Cost - comparing retail to retail
Custom serial number option

If purchasing a gun built on the Rohrbaugh platform, I think 9mm is the right choice.

  I liked the LWS just fine, but when deciding what to let go, it was the one gun that was almost new in the box and had a resale value that was more than I paid for it. Also I thought I may get another, but will order a custom serial number.

I hear ya, John!   ;D  My Seecamp .380 from Phil is a fairly low serial no. but not a custom one.  How's the hunt coming on the MicroTech?

I have a guy looking into getting one for me, and if that doesn't pan out there is a dealer on Gun Broker who sells them for $950
and $20 shipping. I have done a lot of reading and the Microtec gets positive reviews and good feedback from everyone.
  The standard version is what I'm going to get it takes MSAR mags, which can be had for about $20-$25, the E-4 model that takes AR mags is around five to six hundred dollars more. I can buy more mags than I would ever use for that amount of money.

If you are stuck, let me know.  We have a local MSAR dealer who has a few in stock.  Not sure if it's the model you are looking for or not.  Also not sure of his pricing.  I too would love to have one of these, but I can only safely/securely store a few long guns and I'm full.

Ljutic - the cool thing about the Microtec/AUG is with the press of a button the barrel slides out.  I have mine sitting on the top shelf of the safe with the pistols.

I wished they made the MicroTech in .308.

They do offer a 6.8 mm Remington SPC barrel.
