Walther should have called it the Concealed Carry Compact Pistol: CCCP.

Well, I guess upgrading to a machined slide instead of the previous MIM slide of the Umarex made CCP is an improvement…

Walther has reissued some first generation P99 pistols. I have a friend that used one in several gun fights outside the USA.

He just bought 2 of these pistols serial number 006 and 007.

Any more info on the P99 Gen 1 reissues? First I have heard of this.

I will ask my friend.

Walther consistently generates interesting handguns. Yet I never actually buy them.

I had a 2nd model CCP for a few months and fairly neat, but wouldn't really do anything a G43 can do in a smaller package with a wider range of holsters available. Recoil to me was similar to other 9×19 of similar size and weight.

Chambering a round was quirky in that most of the slide travel was very light, but it stacked just at the point where it could strip a cartridge from the magazine and sometimes I wouldn't get it there due to the feel. That would be a non-issue with enough practice or as a 1st/only pistol, but it was odd vs. anything else I have used.

My main reason for trading it was the current state of ammo and powder coated lead bullets did not play well with the gas system which is not a strike against the pistol at all since it would go through jacketed ammo all day long.
