SCCY CPX-2 Gen 2

On a whim, I dropped $260 bucks on a SCCY CPX-2 Gen 2 9mm. I have a safe full of quality handguns and something about me rebelled at something they could sell for that cheap, but I'd read a couple of good reviews on it. Anyway, what you get for that is a made-in-America 9mm, 15oz, 10+1 capacity DAO semi-auto with good ergonomics, quality milled steel slide, aluminum receiver with full rails, milled steel barrel, two quality steel mags that come with both finger extension and flat base plates, very good three dot sights that were dead on from the factory but wind age adjustable, a customized trigger lock made just for the pistol, etc. I have 450 mixed rounds through it (FMJ and JHP) through it now. The trigger, which is long but very smooth, now feels almost as good as my Kahr, and it's combat accurate out to 15 yards and more if you do your part. Reset on the DAO trigger is revolver like in it has to be almost fully released to reset, but rapid fire is quite doable. And, although I haven't had to use it, customer service is apparently extremely highly rated. So I'm fairly amazed. It's sort of shattered my paradigm of you get what you pay for. Just throwing it out for discussion on what people think about it.
 
Thanks for the review. I have handled a gen2 at a LGS and found it an interesting piece. The trigger pull was long but smooth, I didn't want to dry fire it too much so never noticed the reset. With the xtra-large paws I have the grip felt thin and a little uncomfortable for me. Hopefully I'll get a chance to rent or fire one at the range some day. Please keep us up to date on how this SCCY does for you.
 
I recently purchased the same pistol and have been very pleased with the results. The trigger pull is pretty long because I normally carry a Glock, but I got this for my wife and she did very well with it. For the price you really can't go wrong!
 
I forgot to mention that the CPX-2 carries a lifetime warranty that goes with the gun, not just the first owner. Another plus for what seems to be a well thought out and so far utterly reliable pistol.
 
I had one and sold it for a loss.
My front sight popped off at the range before I could even get fifty rounds through it!
Glad yours seems to be in working order. Mine had many failures so I sold it and got a Glock.. (Which in turn, I sold for a Sig!).

I had a Gen1, in fact we went through 3 of them before we said enough was enough those guns were the biggest bunch of POSs I'v ever seen, fast forward the Gen2 come out, I told my gun guy, and he knows the story about the first ones, if he wanted to give me one for cost I would buy it, on the condition that if it gave any indication of effing up like the others he would take it back, he declined so the guns still sit there, don't really have a good reason for wanting one, as I have several others that do a much better job
 
How is the recoil on the SCCY? Is it too snappy to get quick follow up shots on target?
