New Elk stocks for my .32 Seecamp

This may be the only Seecamp with stag grips. I did a search on google and didn't find any, or anyone that makes them. I contacted my friend, Patrick Grashorn to see if he could make them or at least sell me some scales that would work. Patrick said he didn't make them for the Seecamp but would find me some nice Elk with lots of bark.

so I got two nice looking scales, about 2.5 x 2.5 inches square and made them myself. The tricky part is that you have to totally disassemble the gun and inlet the left grip panel for the retaining bar and both sides have recesses for the hammer, mag release and trigger pins. And you have to inlet for the trigger spring. It's a one shot deal with the Elk scales, so work took about five hours.

These are thicker than the normal grips, so they fill the hand nicely.
Pretty happy with how they came out.
Now for a nice hand carved leathe pocket holster to go with it.
Will post more photos when I make it.

This Seecamp has become one of my most favorite pistols. It dissappears in my jeans pocket and has become part of my normal EDC.

A very interesting application of stag grips; kudos to you and your craftsmanship. I've got a shed rack that I found sometime ago that I want to put to similar use.

I think those grips look great. Congrats on stepping outside the routine and boring, and making your Seecamp truly unique.
