Post by: foxtrapper on February 17, 2009, 06:10:06 PM
Could someone please post a picture of a 9mm Rohrbaugh in hand? Also if you own a Seecamp 380, a picture in hand as a comparison ;D I just found out about the Rohrbaugh [I am late to the party] and am very intrigued [read I want one]. So if you have pictures with the gun in your hand please post away!!

Is a 380 Seecamp really selling for $1500?  Why?

I've seen several go for $1400 in the past 6 months.  Some feel the need for "got to have it now" and they pay the price.  Supply and Demand commands high prices on THE BEST stuff.

I paid $825 for mine.  Not anywhere close to $1500.    8)

MSRP for a .380 Seecamp is $795. I paid $850 for instant gratification.

Around $800 makes me feel better but, this is for my wife and I can't decide between a seecamp 32 or 380.  If I decide on a 380 do I get the seecamp or the Rohrbaugh?  Wish I could shoot both one at the local club but no one has either.

Dino, If recoil is an issue, I would go with the Rohrbaugh R380. If you want a Seecamp I would go with the .32acp.  Tom

Thanks Tom, I am leaning towards the Rohrbaugh 380.  

Shot my keltec 32 from 7 feet or so at a 55 gallon drum last week after a cleaning, the round bounced off went by me and landed on the hood of my truck a few feet behind me.

Not very impressed with that performance.

Rule #1  always use eye portection even if it is just one test shot after a cleaning!

I have paid $750 for a couple LWS 380s, ( so I got two for $1500!)MSRP is $795.00
The problem is the 12 to 14 month wait, so the inpatient buyer will pay more to get one.
On occasion a Seecamp 380 will get posted on the Seecamp forum for anywhere between $800 and $950.


If you're going to look at the R9, you should look at the R380 too.

Decisions, decisions....I just wish I could have my wife shoot them both before I bought one.  If it was for me I would not care, but you know how they can be.
