Picked up one of these yesterday, used.

Whoever owned it before me didn't seem to like it very much.

It was brought into Sportsman's inventory on 07/11/2025 (sticker on box).

I don't think it saw many rounds through it.

What does everyone has to say about the CC9?
 
I fired 2 1/2 mags thru mine. Wasn't any better than the other mini-9's I purchased. I hate striker pistols.
 
I got mine a month or two ago. I really like it. I put a holosun on it. I put over 600 rounds through it with no issues at all. It has become my EDC now.

My SIL just got one with the optic on it already, I really maybe shot 25 <> rounds, I didn't like it at all but maybe it was the optic.
 
Other than the known accuracy issues with them (certainly disappointing for HK since they've historically had a high degree of accuracy with most of their pistols), I'm curious what dislikes others have with them? I get it if some prefer hammer guns. Is it the size relative to competitors (P365)? Is it the aesthetics? Is it simply FOMO and annoyance that it's not the SFP9CC? Let's be specific.

From my standpoint, as long as it's durable and reliable, my other main concern is accuracy. Namely, how does it perform at 25yds, since that's where problem guns tend to really fall off the rails, whereas ~10-15yds can mask some accuracy issues. On another forum, several highly experienced shooters were seeing ~4-6"+ groups, whereas similar-sized competitors (P365, G43/43X, G26, etc.) with the same shooters were seeing closer to 2-3" groups.

I'm genuinely asking. When the CC9 was first released, I was excited and strongly considering switching to one for my primary carry gun. After seeing the accuracy issues, I've held off to see if it ended up simply being an initial batch with defective barrels that would be corrected, or some other issue. So far, it's looking like HK won't be doing anything to improve the accuracy situation, which is rather disappointing if true.
 
I had the opportunity to get my hands on a CC9 last week at Impact Guns here in Utah; price was right at $599 (before tax). Cute little pistol and would be a nice CC gun. The trigger return is absolutely excellent (IMHO). Albeit having an OR feature, that kind of kills it as a CC (if one added). The magazines looked kind of cheap. The employee said they can't keep them in stock, and I was looking at their last one they had (they had sold four others earlier in the week). I didn't know these had any accuracy issues (as mentioned above). Anyway, I passed on the CC9 after seeing a MR223 A4 'pistol' hanging on the wall (drool). But...I promised my wife not to buy any more guns, so I walked out of the store empty handed (for now).
 
NO MORE GUNS???? AHHHHHHHHHHH

I hated my CC9. Just another little striker pistol. I hate strikers, and little pistols.
I put about 3 mags thru mine, and realized it wasn't any better than my little PC Shield I sold.

Wow that doesn’t sound positive, I was considering buying one!
 
If you like striker and very small....it's great. I just should have known better.
For a slim 9mm, that's not too dinky.... I've gone back to carrying my Walther PPS. It just lays so flat on my side.
I can also get a great "purchase" on it. I still don't like the striker-fire, but it's the smallest pistol I'm comfortable with and
carries without printing. That, and my USPc-40, are my daily pistols. Just depends on what I'm wearing.

Carrying without printing is what I am looking for in more of a summer situation!
 
With Silver-Tips. You aren't invincible......but I wouldn't want to be hit by anything like that.
 
Well, I picked up a CC9 after all. I couldn't pass up the special discount that Rooftop Defense was giving on these, plus I had like $23 in reward points from a previous purchase through them. I got this a few days after Thanksgiving but haven't had a chance to get to the range yet. Came with a 10 & 12 Rnd magazine and a larger grip backstrap if needed. I'm not much of a Striker fan, but I'm slowly getting used to my VP9 & VP40, so we'll see. Also, not a fan of button mag releases either, but this has a release button on each side, so that's a plus. The front sight glows nicely in the dark. So far, I like it.

For thin, daily-carry...I went back to a Walther PPS. I probably bought 5-6 small strikers, but just don't like them. The pistol has to be comfortable in your hand, and the midget-pistols all bothered me. The first I had was a PPS, and now I'm back there. Regular carry, is my compact USP-40.
