My first CC weapon was a SCCY CPX1. If my mind serves me correctly I payed about $269 for it. I really did not have any belief it was going to be a great firearm because of the cheap price. In college it was all I could afford. However, after firing 250 rounds of anything and everything, it became a great little pocket pistol for me. I still have it to this day. My only complaint was the safety. With a double action trigger, I find no need for a manual safety. The company has since redesigned the pistol and it is now available with and without a manual safety.
