Anyone seen a Walther CCP?

It sounds pretty nifty, but I'm getting the distinct taste of snake oil in my mouth reading about the benefits of the gas system. I could be way off, but is like to lay hands on one and see if its hype or if someone finally reinvented the wheel with auto loading pistols.

It's not new technology. HK did very well with the P7. It was just one of those things ahead of its time. The drawback is that it gets very hot with volume shooting since the gases stay more it less in the slide. That being said, it's not designed as a high volume combat gun.

I used to have a P7 and I can tell you what happens if you touch the gas port at the right/wrong time.   But I am more interested in how the Walther CCP fires and its ability to have the slide easily manipulate for people with "weak" hands due to age, arthritis, injury, etc.

Hmmm. So is this the single column magazine 9mm P that Glock's been foot-dragging about then? Of course it's a Walter instead though. To bad the Europeans keep wanting to stick that outdated squared off trigger guard on all of their new production stuff.

Had one in hand today. It was just ok; I was really hoping for a "wow," but got more of a "meh." Slide racks easy enough, but it's no wonder rack. Trigger has a long, somewhat gritty take up. The break is clean. It's not a small pistol. Seemed similar in size to the PK380, to me.

 

Not a "run out and buy." Worth taking a look at, though.
