The Walther CCP delivers reliable concealed carry performance with its innovative gas-delayed blowback system that reduces felt recoil in the compact 380 ACP platform. This stainless steel variant combines corrosion resistance with the proven ergonomics that made Walther a trusted name among law enforcement and civilian shooters.
What Makes This Different
The CCP's patented gas-delayed blowback system sets it apart from traditional straight blowback 380 pistols by channeling gas pressure to delay slide movement, resulting in significantly reduced recoil and muzzle flip. The stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel frames while maintaining the same lightweight profile. Walther's ergonomic grip design accommodates various hand sizes without requiring backstrap changes, and the ambidextrous magazine release serves both left and right-handed shooters equally well.
Key Features
- Gas-delayed blowback system reduces felt recoil by approximately 25% compared to straight blowback designs
- Stainless steel slide and barrel construction for enhanced corrosion resistance
- 8+1 capacity with flush-fitting magazine maintains compact profile
- Ambidextrous magazine release and reversible button-style safety
- Fixed front and rear sights with white dot configuration
- Textured polymer grip frame with integrated trigger guard undercut
- Compatible with standard 380 ACP ammunition including hollow point defensive rounds
The CCP performs consistently across various defensive ammunition types, from 90-grain hollow points to 95-grain FMJ practice rounds. The gas system maintains reliable cycling with both standard and +P loads, making it suitable for everyday carry, home defense, and range training. The stainless finish withstands humid conditions and occasional exposure to moisture without showing corrosion signs that affect blued steel alternatives.
