SCCY CPX-1 Carbon 9mm Pistol

A: Ronnie, yes Sir. This pistol has "Last Round" Slide hold open.

A: yes it does lock open after last round

A: Ronnie - This is copied directly from the SCCY CPX-1 Owner's manual on the SCCY web site: "After firing the last cartridge, the slide will remain open see Figure 12. This allows the operator to visually check the chamber and magazine area to make certain the firearm is empty." The entire manual is at: www.sccy.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/SCCY-Manual-8-2016_150web.pdf

A: Monica, I own 2 SCCY's and have shot +P without issue. I switched back to regular loads since the shorter barrel does not give the expected added velocity but, does increase recoil and muzzle blast. With the standard load, a good hollow point - you will be more accurate with shot placement.

A: I can not find a answer that I would trust so I suggest that you contact SCCY at this link and ask them https://www.sccy.com/contact/

A: Monica - SCCY is one of the very few who actually seem to avoid addressing the "+P" issue. Their owner's manual for this pistol only states to use "only 9mm luger" ammunition. Well, Duh! Honestly, from all the conflicting reports I've seen since SCCY introduced their firearms, I would avoid getting near one. I know some people like them, but some people are so limited in their firearms experience they have no basis upon which to know what is actually a good firearm and what isn't, having acquired their 'knowledge' from YouTube and playing Call of Duty. Were I in a position to choose a $200 9mm pistol to use for self defense, I'd go with the Taurus G2C. Taurus has certainly stepped up their game in the last couple of years, have reinstated their lifetime warranty, and the G2C is getting some good reviews., Alternatively, and preferably, I'd look at a Ruger EC9, which is only a few bucks more, and made by an established, American company with a good reputation for customer serv

A: NO, this pistol is not on CA pistol roster and is not legal in CA. Check HERE ( https://oag.ca.gov/firearms/certified-handguns/search )

A: Robert, unfortunately no SCCY handguns on the CA DOJ approved Roster. The Smith and Wesson Shield and SD9 VE are Ca compliant : https://www.nwarmory.com/product/smith-wesson-187021-mp-9-shield-ca-compliant-double-9mm-luger-3.1-7181-black-polymer-grip-black-stainless-steel ------------------------ https://www.nwarmory.com/product/smith-wesson-123903-sd-ve-ca-compliant-double-9mm-luger-4-101-black-polymer-grip-stainless-steel --------------------- https://battlehawkarmory.com/product/smith-wesson-187021-mp-9-shield-ca-compliant-9mm-luger-3.10-71-81-black-stainless-steel-black-polymer-grip --------------------- https://www.johnsmilitiagear.com/products/smith-wesson-022188239034-3364

A: Bill, I have owned several of these in the past and have large hands and have never experienced any Safety Bite. It does have an isolation rib for the safety. Cheers and stay safe!

A: You might need to adjust your grip if you're experiencing "Safety Bite"?

A: Me and my wife owned one of these and we had no issue with safety bite. Hope this helps.
