ogfarmer 138 Posted March 7, 2014 http://www.ammoland.com/2014/03/walther-ccp-compact-pistol/#axzz2v708B3az In the DEFENSE area we are featuring the brand-new WALTHER CCP, a compact 9 mm Luger. Its gas-delayed blowback action and polygonal barrel ensure outstanding shooting characteristics. The PPQ family, with its M2 models (magazine release on the side) in 9 mm Para, now has four-inch and five-inch versions, and the small-caliber PPQ 22, also in a four-inch and a five-inch sport version, has the same good handling. ColionNoir--- http://www.mrcolionnoir.com/news/new-gun-alert-walther-ccp/ In case you’re wondering, the “CCP” stands for “Concealed Carry Pistol” There’s no price yet, but I plan on getting my hands on this gun to put it up against the XDs and Shield. The Information below was pulled from the Walther site. WALTHER CCP: Small. Accurate. Reliable.Walther Sets The New Standard for Concealed Carry PistolsThe new WALTHER CCP combines the easy handling of a pocket pistol with the power of 9 x 19 mmcartridges. CCP stands for Concealed Carry Pistol. The innovative SoftCoil s ystem operates on a gasdelayed blowback principle, that allows a significantly reduced recoil and results in easy racking of theslide. The CCP has an ideal combination of ergonomics, size, shape, accuracy and ability to concealcomfortably. With a length of 163 mm this single-column, 8-round firearm comes with numerousfeatures that are otherwise found only in larger models. The precocked trigger has a constant low trigger pull of 2.5 kg and a trigger travel of only 7 mm. Byrerouting the gas pressure the designers were able to use a soft main spring with a gentle release, thusreducing the recoil as compared with a standard Browning system. Moreover, the polygonal barrel doesnot dip downwards, which considerably reduces the vertical motion of the pistol and improves theprecision. The slide is also significantly easier to cock, with the help of front and rear slide serrations. Considerable attention was given to safety, but without impeding simple operation. For example, theeasy accessible manual safety pulls back the trigger bar, allowing the trigger blade to move withoutresistance. This takes the strain off the parts and prolongs their service life. A striker safety providesdrop safety. In addition, the torque-free design of the trigger mechanism ensures that components stayin place if the pistol is dropped. Finally, the pistol can only be stripped if it is decocked, and a strippingaid is supplied in each package.The WALTHER CCP comes with a 3-dot sight. The polymer sight is screwed on, and three heights aresupplied as standard. The polymer rear sight is laterally adjustable. The front and rear sights arecompatible in size with the Walther P99, PPQ and PPS pistols. Thus the tritium sights offered asaccessories for these models fit the CCP as well. The CCP is available with a stainless slide orstainless with a black CERAKOTE TM finish.Advantages for the customer at a glance:• slim design and single-column magazine for a good grip• trigger and safety can be operated even by small hands• easy-to-cock slide• easy-to-move slide stop lever• safe, smooth operation with all standard ammunition, no effects from variations in gas pressure• low recoil and reduced upward kick• multiple drop safety and trigger safety features Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Purple Patrick 638 Posted March 7, 2014 If you love walther so much why don't you marry it:p. Saw this yesterday and it might give my shield a run for its money if it truly is a single stack ppq this signature exceeds the 15 character count capacity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtToadette 59 Posted March 7, 2014 The safety is a bit of a bummer but looks solid otherwise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlueLineFish 615 Posted March 8, 2014 I am torn. Loved the ppq but had many bad experiences with the pps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Matrix 105 Posted March 8, 2014 Looks nice. As for the PPS- my fell apart during a shooting session. Walther took it back and sent me a new PPQ. I requested a PPQ, b/c I really did not like the PPS. Walther took care of me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sixtytwo327 14 Posted March 8, 2014 Worried it's a "me too" gun, though I'd still like to take one apart and see if "softcoil" is marketing hype or fancy engineering. Walther is making interesting things these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raz-0 1,259 Posted March 8, 2014 I'm wondering how they do the gas system. The p7 was gas delayed, and it could get quite hot. Not sure that combined with polymer is a great idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Underdog 1,593 Posted March 8, 2014 Yeah, Walther doesn't have anything up on Glock in terms of looks. The 22LR version might be really cool as well as the single stack. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SgtToadette 59 Posted March 8, 2014 I think the photos from Colion Noir are far more flattering. The profile of the CCP looks much better than the "up-the-nose" shot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
checko 180 Posted March 8, 2014 Yeah, Walther doesn't have anything up on Glock in terms of looks. The 22LR version might be really cool as well as the single stack. Disagree. I think Walther's pistols are very aesthetically pleasing, especially compared to a block Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

david8613 69 Posted March 9, 2014 I love my glocks but that does look pretty nice, what she going for price wise? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dro8 1 Posted March 12, 2014 I'm with David on this one.... Glocks rule but, Maaaan that's a sweet looking gun. The trigger looks really fat/wide, though. I feel like it almost looks too wide. Guess I'll have to shoot one to see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PD2K 115 Posted March 12, 2014 Pretty nice - directly competes with S&W's popular "Shield" line. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
svt3183 14 Posted March 12, 2014 Sounds awesome and I love the look of Walthers. Need a price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
svt3183 14 Posted March 23, 2014 Walther’s suggested retail price will be $469-489. Better than I expected. Still need a release date, which I am sure will be after my current permit expires - thanks NJ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
