Newest handgun purchase...Walther CCP

[JRExplorer3]

Picked this one up just last Wed.

A Walther CCP in factory box with 2 mags, extra front sights and a Comp-Tac Infidel Ultra Max IWB holster.
Seller said it wouldn't cycle reliably......
On vacation next week so I'll do a fluff and buff on it.
Then run a couple of different types of ammo through it and see how it runs.

After that I need to send it back to Walther for a drop safe recall.
If it doesn't function well I'll have them check it out while they have it for the recall update.

Here's the kicker........I paid $100 for everything

Nice...You did good.

I field stripped it and gave it a good cleaning and lube. Especially the gas tube.
Inspected, cleaned/lubed magazines.

Took it to the range today along with 2 other handguns we haven't shot since buying. A Ruger EC9S and a LC9S Pro.

Range Report:

Shooting Federal Champion 115 gr. FMJ RN Brass ammo.

Happy to report that the EC9S and LC9S Pro both functioned 100%.
Both with the factory mags and a Ruger 9 round extended mag. Mags interchanged with no issues.
At self defense ranges accurate enough to do serious damage.

I did note that the EC9S sights were sometimes hard to pick up quickly.
A couple of dabs of white nail polish might do the trick.

The Walther CCP functioned admirably. More range time is needed before carrying though.
Using the same 9mm ammo. 8-10 magazines run through, 8 rnd. each.
Quite accurate with the sights as is.

We had 1 fail to feed jam, nose dived round, 2nd round 2nd mag. Myself shooting.
We also had 2 instances of failure to hold open after last round. Wife was shooting both times.
Other than that no other issues. Overall a good $100 investment.
I did notice the gas tube area was starting to get warm before shooting the last magazine.

I filled out the return info and it's off to Walther tomorrow for the drop safe recall.
I included a note to check the fail to feed and fail to hold open after last round.

After that. For fun, A few hundred rounds of .22LR T-Bolts through the M&P22, M&P22C and Sig Mosquito and we were done. Only 1 FTF in the Sig out of all the .22LR.
Not bad for Remington Thunderbolts.
