I recently bought a Glock 48 and a Glock 19 COA. I gave away my original Glock 43, did nothing for me. I am absolutely loving this G48 though. I bought a bunch of PSA mags and have a couple 3 hundred rounds through them with zero issues. I just ordered an Upper Hand Holster for the 48 and I plan on carrying with the PSA mags. When the 48 COA finally gets available to the peons I am definitely getting one. I love the 19COA. The sight is basically an improved ACRO. I love my PDP ACRO so that is saying something.

I’ve been carrying a 43x for awhile, but after reading this I think I’m ready to pick up a cc9, even though it lacks the paddles.

I'm not a fan of the small OEM paddle on my P2000 but love the ones that came on my HK45c and HK45.

I've never been a fan of ambi. magazine releases but the HK/Walther paddle works great. But like everything else, nothing is 100% fool proof. Many years ago, I let my son shoot my HK45 and he somehow managed to eject the magazine on the first shot. I asked him how it happened. Turns out, he was not holding on the the pistol hard enough and the recoil caused the pistol to shift in his hand. It's the only time I've ever heard of where someone managed to do this.

A range member showed up with one who allowed me to put a few rounds down range with it. It’s sized right, but doesn’t do anything better than the pistols I own in its category.

Jupiter I like the paddles on my 45c as well. That gun is one of my favorites, it’s on my nightstand right now.
That’s the first I’ve heard of an inadvertent mag drop with the paddles, which just goes to prove anything can happen.

After posting yesterday, out of curiosity, I did a google search and found this.
It has to be pretty rare considering the time I've spent on forums over the years and never ran across it happening.

"HK P30 magazine falling out as it recoils..."

As far as the CC9 is concerned, I'm sure it's a nice pistol. I considered picking one up but I just don't need another small gun. I already have several small pistols including a P365x,Hellcat and G43x. I carry the 43x the most out of the 3.

I have read about one or two instances of mag dropped. I’ve read about/know about a ton more with button mags.

I find myself carrying my CC9 quite a bit. I shoot it well it carry’s enough ammo (for me personally. Yes I would prefer belt fed amounts if I would ever need it but 12 is a sweet spot for me mentally for some reason) and if I’m honest it’s a bit of a “lazy gun” for me. It’s just easy to carry.

Like I said good little gun …….just like all the other good little guns out there.

I'd buy one if I there was one in any of my LGS's! I still haven't seen one in person.

3rd time shooting mine today and I’m liking it more and more.

HK had/has a chance to stand out in a crowded field and chose to run right down the middle. If somebody offered me a one for one trade Cc’s for 365’s I would probably take it because I like HK’s. That being said I wouldn’t take it because I thought I would get a demonstrably better platform. It’s the same platform as everybody else. And by everybody else I am implying that everybody else basically copied Sig and their 365. Sincerest form of flattery and all.

They make this with a hammer, my pref is LEM, and a paddle release and this thing screams out HK and it actually moves the market choice to a positive direction. Short of the mini 1911 style stuff, the micro world is all striker.

This gun is great. As are all the pretty much exact same guns. Boring. Try again HK. Please.

I agree, make a sub compact USP and I’ll buy one for sure.
