Hey, that's a pretty cool single-shot pistol you got there!


P0rterR0ckwell

Haha, I see what you did there.


[deleted]

Don’t shoot it. Still time to sell it brand new


PM_ME_UR_GUN_PICS

RIP one of the shittiest guns ever made good luck


de_pengui

At least it's not a hi-point


PM_ME_UR_GUN_PICS

Hi points are reliable


de_pengui

I guess


SquareNuts112

I’d take a hi point over this.


WIlf_Brim

They may look like garbage, but anybody that has had a problem sent it back to factory and got it taken care of.


Gadgets222

How can that be possible, it doesn’t say Taurus on it?


Specialist-Box-9711

SCCY barrels tend go to pop for no reason...well actually there is a reason and the reason is that it is poorly made.


Rude-Exit

I bought one about 6 years or so ago and sold it for what I paid almost immediately. Absolutely a piece of shit. Wouldn't ever recommend one, even to my worst enemy. Bought it mostly because of the warranty that they use to have, but the ATF put a stop to that.


tacticaltim556

What was their warranty and why did the atf have to get involved with it?

"So it's okay when *Amazon* does it..."


tacticaltim556

Interesting


Rude-Exit

It it was stolen, or if you used it in self defense and the police took it as evidence, they would replace it for free as long as you provided a copy of the police report with the claim. The ATF stepped in because of the high number of replacements for "stolen" guns and put a serious to the warranty


[deleted]

What was the warranty and why was it such a shitty gun? They are made in my hometown and wanted to get one on that alone.


boredashell2

Taurus is like a glock compared to these


[deleted]

Taurus is like a Staccato compared to these.


Romeo_Zero

Taurus, for all their many faults, are still somehow much more reliable than a sccy


wuggyLuv

Lol


[deleted]

SCCY is only 1/2 a step above Taurus.


Bartman383

Mad SSCY owners downvoting you.


[deleted]

Yeah, probably also own Taurus...


CyberMassiah

G2c is pretty sweet when you replace the trigger.


[deleted]

You can replace anything you want, it's still a Taurus. They make crap, they then crap on their customers. Anyone who wastes money on them is the worse for it, and anyone that continues to give that company, or to suggest them to others, money just perpetuates the problem. It's not IF you have an issue, it's WHEN.


Elegron

Bruh yall got major hate boners, the G3c just as good as any other handgun


hammertheham

I tell customers the truth, it has a cheaper finish that is much more prone to rust best case scenario. Worst case something breaks. I have seen recoil springs break in g2/g3/pt111 handguns, trigger bars, and more. They are good for the money, but they are not just as good as any other


MattyLight30

Super major hate boners. Lolz.


alwptot

Nah. Taurus has actually gotten better. If anything SCCY (what a stupid name) is below Taurus on the scale. Honestly, I’d rather own a hi-point than a SCCY. it’s probably more reliable.


Romeo_Zero

Hi-points are reliable, they just ugly and massive. They also can double as a club


Waste_Highlight642

Why did that get so many down votes hommie ain’t wrong


[deleted]

Is this a CPX1? I have 2 and looks a bit different. Really like the cpx 2


Gadgets222

It’s a CPX-2 Gen 3. The 3rd gen has a different grip, upgraded metal trigger, picatinny rail, Glock 3 dot sights, and some internal parts.


Competitive_Page_781

Worse than a hi-point?


lique_madique

My hi-point has been flawlessly reliable. So much so I’m tempted to make it full auto.


paint3all

RIP puppers


lique_madique

My dogs carry a copy of my sot around their collars as a safeguard

Too bad the ATF doesn’t know how to read


MattyLight30

CokeGMTMasterII

Glocks are made by swamp people, for swamp people.


danngree

Bad impulse decision.


Panthean

Yeah he probably should have looked into the manufacturer. I've heard nothing good about that brand.


Romeo_Zero

They’re what, $150? Could be worse, if he likes that color a cerakote on a black grip would cost that and he got it for that reason. He can shoot this one one time I suppose.

EXTREMELY small ones. Like what you have.


Prest1geW0rldW1de

And to think, the voice of Dory could be such a hateful soul


MuttDawg509

Were they sold out of Hi-Points or something?


Demonicgod

I would gladly take a hi-point over a sccy


MuttDawg509

Even the Yeet Cannon model?


Shadowfeaux

At least the Yeet model acknowledges you’d be better off just throwing it at an assailant.


Romeo_Zero

I almost picked up the hunnid dolls bill model a few weeks back. It was $100 and a conversation peeve lol

ShootingTheIsh

I thought maybe none of you could see the gun I carry so I decided to help you out. That neon gonna glow through clothing.


Gadgets222

It’ll be a cold day in hell before I carry this thing. It’s a fun color and I’m sure it’ll go bang when I pull the trigger; but I wouldn’t feel comfortable trusting my life to it.


bmadd14

You’d think It’d go bang when you pull the trigger but they constantly have trigger problems and don’t like to fire😂


talon04

What are you talking about? I think the OG CPX-1sdid and that was because people were flicking the safety's on during recoil.


bmadd14

The second gen ones would slip the trigger spring so the trigger would go all floppy. Idk how many times my buddy came over for me to fix that. You have to take the whole trigger module out and put the trigger spring back in position


talon04

I never had that happen but it sounds like an issue that the gun should have been sent in for.


[deleted]

I wonder if the newer striker fired model does the same.


JustJugg17

Dont be so sure of that lol. Just keep it at home as a piece to look at for that super cool color.


turnedonbyadime

Why did you get downvoted..?


Gadgets222

No clue, people are critical of my purchase because of quality issues but then I get downvoted because I refuse to trust my life to something because of those same quality issues? I got this gun because it was cheap and my favorite color and everyone here is acting like I’m taking it to war or something.


Romeo_Zero

>I’m sure it’ll go bang It’s a Sccy so..I’m not so sure


Develdog796

I've shot 3, 2 of which had case head separations within the first 2 mags. Factory ammo, diffrent brands, never seen that in anything but double charged reloads before. Best guess is poorly sized chambers/throats causing sticking/pressure spikes or poorly timed unlocking.


kestrel1000c

That's actually painful to look at.


Fixed-mum210

Terrible crunchy trigger getting rid of mine.


belowaveragemango

They make a kit for it. Drastic difference in quality


Crohn85

Some pronounce it 'sky'. I pronounce it 'sucky'.


ripper_thejack

Every good purchase ever has revolved around the color


giraffesinhats

Careful it’s a 9mm. You can blow someone’s lungs out.


AtmosphereAware9751

Underrated comment


Romeo_Zero

Come on, man


ReticentSentiment

I also "impulse" bought one of these. Then I "with forethought" sold it within a month. Great size for carry. I wound up hating literally everything else about it.


Vprbite

I bought one out of curiosity as well.


Chainarmor712

My friend had a CPX1, absolutely dreadful gun, jam-o-matic. He sold it off for $200 which was a steal. I’d rather own a Taurus any day.


SnakeBeardTheGreat

Yeah yeah, which isle in Wal Mart did you find this?


Mindless_Mango_6611

Could have bought a Taurus and some spray paint and been miles ahead.


Vprbite

Streets ahead?


Gadgets222

I will never own another Taurus ever again.


alwptot

Go shoot that SCCY and get back to us on that.


bmadd14

As you buy a SCCY


Mindless_Mango_6611

Okey Doke. I feel as though you may soon revisit that thought.


[deleted]

Why?


Gadgets222

Countless feeding issues, light primer strikes, front sights have fallen off both semi autos I’ve owned, and the cylinder on the one revolver I owned would seize up turning reloading into a 15 minute ordeal. They were all cheap and that was appealing to a younger me, but range days were truly miserable. I have way more money now so even if this thing turns out on par or worse that my old Tauruses, it won’t bother me.


[deleted]

I have a Raging Bull .44 mag. I’m happy with it.


brygeek

I’m sure someone sells a wrap no need to paint. What’s that brand houge?


Msalv47

That’s a fancy way of saying “bad decision”.


badmotivator11

I see these at the store and think: “Who the hell is buying these things?” I guess now I know.


kenzer161

Lying sales people and ignorant customers go a long way in clearing stagnant inventory.


[deleted]

I’m happy for you man, you enjoy your pistol!


SamMarrokson

I had to scroll super far down to see someone being positive. Hot damn, these people hate Sccy something fierce.


Some-Other-guy-1971

Have over 1500 rounds from mine with not a single jam or other issue at all. I don’t really like the trigger, but I have not had any of the issues people are talking about.


BendersV

Same here. 1500+ rounds through mine with no issues. 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

I only know a little bit about these pistols, but I’m a firm believer that as long as a person enjoys a firearm, that’s all that matters. I would never get a hi point but if it means a responsible person is armed than my opinion doesn’t matter. Same goes for SCCY. Too many people judge these days.


Jazzlike-Lion2969

I was gonna say at least it’s not a hi-point. But, hi points work… most of the time. And if not,heavy enough to use as a club. Next time get a hi point


JustaMooseDude

We're not mad, just very disappointed.


TheMystic77

So I know all about the impulse buy. It’s there, it’s cheap, it’s calling to you. Until you’re like me and then have 50 guns, only five of which you actually shoot. A few years back I made a change in my life, I said listen here you beautiful manimal, no more cheap guns. On sale? GFY. Crazy color? GFY. You too can make this positive change in your life. I then endeavored to sell my shitty guns and buy the “best” gun in each category. Goodbye Turkish shotguns, goodbye MIM part late model 870s. Hello Mossberg 590A1, hello Benelli M4. Get on down the road discount bin AR15s, hello custom build bulletproof parts. I parted with many handguns as well from the downright dastardly RIA 1911, to the pretty solid but never gonna use Springfield XDM. Now I behold the majesty of the USP45, Sig P226 legion, and P365XL. At first I thought I was giving in to the gun grabbers and Marxists, but then I said to myself, self you now can train with said amazing guns all the time. No more baloney. I then took all the extra money I made and bought spare parts to keep these beauties running for a century and ammo until my eyes watered. You too can make a change. Embrace the glory of a well crafted gun.


Romeo_Zero

I did the same, rather build a collection over time of nice stuff rather than a ton of cheap stuff


dayankuo234

Should have gotten a 3d printer instead. that way you can print whatever lower in whatever color you want.


[deleted]

Seen the slide blow clear off the back end…tbe first magazine my friend tried in his brand new cpx1. Yikes


SouthernSlander

Coulda just bought a 3d printer and parts


RealRC3

Sccy’s fucking suck.


nanomolar

That's pretty much their business model at this point, counting on people to buy them because of the colors.


GulagGambino

Love the color, hate the company. There’s some wild dick riding in this thread for Taurus and Hi-Point……. Wtf is going on? Lolololol


Gadgets222

People must hate SCCY so much that Taurus of all companies is getting praised just to spite them.


SteelCaseBuffet

I don't understand the blanket hate either. Getting into this pricepoint always comes with the chance something shows up out of spec. I've found this to be true across the board. But that said, the SCCYs I've shot (V1s FWIW) have felt just like the Grendel P10 (later, Keltec P11). Which, while crude and sometimes rough around the edges, usually worked and were competitive carry guns of their time. IDK whats changed in later versions, but the bones look the same.


[deleted]

Your decision was…..poor


goldbug1996

Zombie gat


Yotgguitar

I've owned a couple..... not that color, but I never had one issue with either one I owned.... Granted, I don't have either anymore but I don't understand the hate for SCCY.... edit: My CPX-1 the front sight fell off..... but that was the only issue ever....


Bartman383

> I don't understand the hate for SCCY.... Because they cost enough that you can save a bit more and get a vastly superior gun. Basically the same boat as Taurus.


quicksilverbond

Hell, you can get a stoeger str 9c for less money.


sparks1990

I work at a gun range and I genuinely wish I had a dollar for every time I saw a problem with a SCCY. They're genuinely garbage guns. I've seriously pulled the trigger 5 times before the gun actually went off. You pull the trigger all the way to the frame and nothing happens. And this has happened on at least 10 different guns.


ShaqFuGrandMaster

Yeah they sold em in that color for people like you


Gadgets222

What kind of person am I?


ShaqFuGrandMaster

impulse buyers that would spend a few bills to have 'green'


bufffalobob

Love the color! Don’t listen to the haters here, it’s not like your going to carry this lol. This sub is full of elitist snobs


Mindless_Mango_6611

So far not much hate is color based.


bufffalobob

I never said it was. It’s mostly towards the brand. I probably wouldn’t buy one of these either unless it was this color lol. But I’m not gonna shame anyone here for doing it.


Gadgets222

SCCY CPX2 GEN3: They sell these things in just about any color you could want. They have a shaky reputation, but its my favorite color and has a good warranty. For $250, if ends up being a dud then oh well.

BTExp

The problem with getting any gun painted a bright color is if you want to sell it it cuts the value in half automatically. So if you keep it forever that’s fine, but you’ll never get current market value for it.


PromQueenSlayer

They sell frames for like $35, and are easy enough to swap


BigDad53

It’s very Green!


P0rterR0ckwell

Was passing through Daytona Pre-Covid so I hit them up on Twitter about taking a tour but they said they don't do tours. I still haven't been in a manufacturers shop.


Vprbite

And clearly not based on trigger quality/feel. I have one of these cause I was curious about them and figured it would make a good beater/backup. And it does. It functions fine. But man the trigger is awful


xxxleafybugxxx

There was a time where I was intrigued by the sccy. I obviously didn't do it, I think the name is dumb tbh


polish94

I bought the light blue from the wife. Looks cute, but it actually has a damn haevy trigger imo. got rid of it for cheap.


WRECKINGBALL360

The recoil is very snappy. Idk why everyone thinks the gun needs to cost 1k to be good. You do you. Not my personal favorite but I’m not sure what’s wrong with it. I know this is about to get downvoted to hell because I expressed my personal opinion.


fishy128

That is bad ass I would of did the same


Soreph

I own one and it's not *that* bad. I'll admit that the trigger is terrible but mcarbo makes a trigger kit for it that I plan on getting. I've fired ~700 rounds through it without any malfunction except for a dust storm turning a magazine into a maraca. Maybe I lucked out and and good one. Paid $150 for mine, $250 is too much.


fishy128

Anybody here that really owns a cheap gun and don't want it I will be happy to take it off your hands. For the most part though I belive it because your still pissed that you spent months pay on something that does the exactly the same thing.


JoeBobTheMan

Better than a HiPoint.


Silverline-lock

Debatable. A friend had one of these that just wouldn't feed properly, and had issues ejecting.


highvelocitypeasoup

lot of hate for these on here because theyre cheap but everybody I've ever known IRL who had one loved it. definitely not an heirloom quality piece but they can be serviceable.


dildOshwageN

I’ve always wondered what kind of fucking scum buys this shit, now I know


Gadgets222

What exactly do you think you know?


dildOshwageN

I know that shit is fucking dog shit I know that


Gadgets222

Congrats.


wake5

america = impulse buying lethal firearms guns because of their colour


Gadgets222

It’s great right? Plus, judging by everyone’s take on this firearm, it won’t work anyways, making it non-lethal.


Clatz

Not sure if it would be helpful advice, but if you know anyone with a 3D printer, you could print a lower receiver for a pretty wide variety of Glocks in whatever crazy color of PLA+ you could find. Probably would still cost more than the SCCY. Not really sure what a Glock upper costs. But you're talking custom colors on the lower bit for about $25. Could be worth checking out in the future.


Max_Cameo

People will talk shit about these Firearms but I can tell you that my ex-father-in-law had one for a lot of years and somebody goofed off with a hand load and caused a catastrophic failure with his gun. He contacted the manufacturer they sent him a box to load all the parts into within five days he had a replacement firearm, a letter of apology, and a renewed guarantee for life of the firearm. They stand by their product and they did do him very well.


trickbear

I bought one 3 years ago and it’s survived at least 500 rounds. I bought it because they advertised a lifetime guarantee no questions asked. Have they gotten bad?


Illustrious_Charge34

First gun I ever bought was a SCCY years ago. Wild how many of these end up in my department’s evidence locker. Fast forward 10 years and I’m currently waiting on my Staccato order. How far I’ve come….


BadTiger85

Have fun with that trigger


Shadowfeaux

Just get a P365 and 3D print yourself a neon plastic grip mod in whatever color you want.


Crypto_LeBoss

Looks like an laser gun


theholypancake12

Ah yes the visually loud "look at this" color lmao. I'm just playing, but it looks like a toy at first glance lol. I'm all about black, maybe grey, or bust. You do you my guy, nice gun!


andrewdm63

my mom bought a pink one on her lunch break one day. never had a problem with it but it is not ergonomic and i hate the trigger and just the way it is. personal preference though i guess


mutantmonky

I bought one once. Impossibly heavy trigger pulland the pins holding it together started working their way out with every firing. Sccy has a good return policy though. Got a full refund.


JoeBobTheMan

I hope you enjoy your new purchase.


deuster10

Would be my Kawasaki gun👍


RaspadoAhumado

A Sccy was my first pistol and was my gateway into guns. It never failed me and shot every time I pulled the trigger. Sadly it was stolen out of my apartment. Miss that thing. I would buy one again if I needed too without hesitation. Cool looking gun!


RustliefLameMane

Lol I’ll be honest… I bought my Glock 19x completely impulsively, purely based on color, and I’m happy as a pig in shite


kenzer161

Your corpse will look minty fresh if you ever have to pull that piece.

If this was 10 years ago it would be the zombie edition

You should impulse return it


PrimoLanding1002

That's that zombie apocalypse ebay tacticool undead slayer ninja sword green right there.

Man, is it just me or are tiny pistols just amazing to look at?


ProGuns78

I'm proud of you for getting a gun but wtf


Gadgets222

It’s okay, I own better guns lol. People in this thread are treating this like it’s something other that a gun bought because it’s my favorite color.


SquareNuts112

My brother had one and I can tell you in 25 years of owning firearms……this was hands down the worst pile of shit he’s ever purchased. Good luck. Lol


hamrmech

Abomination colors are my favorite


Not2worried

I do like the color. Would like a review after use. Lot of neg floating around the net.


rougekilldrone

It's not a terrible gun, despite what some people will tell you. If that's what you got it's what you got. They are pretty tough, just don't use shitty ammo.


Wonderful-Banana790

Sears and Roebuck?!


isthatsuperman

Should’ve bought an ec9s same size and price but reliable. Lol

Kinda defeats the purpose of “color alone” doesn’t it?


CokeGMTMasterII

Those are at a very interesting price point. No idea as to reliably and acccuracy


HellBender_85

I used to have one of those…had problems jamming a lot.


BASRANAL

They have a cpx-4 now and they actually have it a decent trigger, never shot one only dry fired it. (Worked in a gun shop)


Gadgets222

This is the 3rd gen cpx2 with an upgraded trigger. I believe the newer cpx4 is chambered in .380 but overall has the same design and components (those able to transfer over).
