Hopefully it's a stock part and someone will chime in with a web link. I've never seen this info in ~20 years of the lights being available, but you never know.

Boot is a custom made part. Nothing off the shelf.

...and I'd bet yours aren't made from that garbage 'rubber' from the other side of the world, some of which seems to just get all sticky and disintegrate / decompose in a matter of months (even if unused) either!

Nope. It is not.

Doesn't the magazine in a Seecamp only take a shortened .32 auto round that has to be handloaded and standard ball 7.65 doesn't fit?

What?

On page 1 they were talking about a small handgun and I forgot to quote a post. I remember reading about them on Geocities way back in the day. Of course I couldn't afford one of those.
The Seecamp was designed for hollowpoint .32 (originally it was Winchester Silvertip) which is shorter than .32 ball. You don't need to handload it but you have to buy the right ammo. That's another thing, in the old days their website would have advisories like "brand X ammo is .07" longer this year, so we suggest using brand Y."

Winchester rounds did seem to be shorter. That caused issues when I ran a vz. 61. Of course it was a remanufactured model and the magazines were used too.

Like just about any pistol, you need to find out what it likes to eat... the Seecamp is just a 2 year old who is VERY picky about it's food, and has some severe food allergies one needs to be aware of. Keeping that in mind, it will do what it is supposed to. I owned the original Larry version and this post Larry one. I've been quite happy with this one. They certainly are not for everyone.

The only way I can construe these topics to be connected, is the commonality of overpaying and underdelivering ?

It is the internet you can easily drift offtopic.
Welcome to the new candlepowerforums, where as bykfixer likes to say, the inmates are {mostly} in charge.
Kel-Tec can be shot quite accurately learning a sight picture that includes something of a partial view of the spent shell ejection port in the slide. No kidding.
Hogo Can bang the gong with a big bore that's for sure. Revolver evolved he is.

Its better than some uppity mod coming in and destroying years of hard work in gathering info on some light companies.

IIRC, he's also been known to sport a PPK and puff on a few Baccarats as well, so he's got pretty good tastes in my book.

PPK or PPK/S is overrated in my opinion. FN or Sig Sauer made better 32 guns.

I would have bet that was coming in Vegas if there was a line on it...
This place is nothing if not predictable. Non-stop negativity.
I'm not putting down FN (or Sig), as my favorite guns came from FN. That's not the point.
I don't feel compelled to knock everything else. Sheesh.

Alright PPK is better than Mauser 1914.
