#CPX-1

We have taken a look at the SCCY CPX-1 here at The Firearm Blog previously but when I walked past the booth and saw a rainbow of colors i had to snap a photo to share with you. SCCY is known for having one of the best warranties in the industry. Not only is it a lifetime warranty, but if you use your pistol in self defense or it gets stolen they will replace it as long as you provide them with the police report (this is the way it worked last I checked). Getting that kind of warranty on a pistol with a street price of right around $260-$300 is almost unheard of. The CPX series has a 10 round double stack magazine and a double action only trigger similar to some of Kel-Tec’s offerings.

Yesterday I got to go on a SCCY Industries factory tour. CEO and founder Joe Roebuck showed us his facility and broke the news that they are working on a new pistol in .380acp.The gun is still in the prototype/pre-production phase so I don’t have any pictures of it yet. They estimate a release date around this summer 2015.  Capacity will be the same as the CPX-1 and CPX-2, 10+1 rds. We did get to see a slide and barrel and compared it to the 9mm slide. The barrel is not that much shorter. We estimated about 0.4 inches shorter compared to the 9mm barrel. The slide is a bit shorter but I do not recall by how much. There was talk about the grip being a smidgen smaller. Ideas of possibly reducing the back and front straps. We shall see what they come out with very soon. Oh and the price will be the same as the CPX-1 and CPX-2.
