Any one have experience with this gun? If so what's your opinion? Good, bad, in between?

I own two ccp’s. My black one is picky on ammo but my stainless is flawless. Very accurate pistols with fixed barrel. Triggers are sometimes slightly gritty at first but smooth out quickly to a nice trigger. Cleaning is a little more work you have to clean the gas chamber then spray gun scrubber in it. No oil in there! Take down many might complain but its not that bad and you can use any punch. Once you do it a few times its nothing. The grip is awesome in the hand and the slide is easy to rack but you have to pull it back all the way for reset. I shoot Federal 124 hst’s in my guns without issues. I like them a lot my only complaint is Im left handed and it has a right hand only safety, so I dont use it. I like them and many here might complain they are made by Umerex and not Walther in Ulm. They are made in that factory but these pistols are made in a separate division by walther. Quality is fine. If you buy used make sure it has a drilled out dot at the bottom of the magazine port. The early pistols were recalled and thats how you know they had their updates done.

Thanks for the come-back. I had about decided that no one had ever purchased one. I handled one for the first time yesterday and really liked the way it fit my hand. I may have to have one.

My wife had a CCP but it was not reliable for her so she changed to a Ruger LC9S and then finalized on a Glock 43.
The CCP was very accurate and easy to shoot well. It was more reliable when I shot the pistol, though not 100%, IMO, it requires a firmer grip than similar pistols to be reliable. It was difficult to clean the gas cylinder bore and it was difficult to use a hard cleaning rod form the rear. A bore snake would be very handy. I did't like needing a tool to get the gun apart, but it wasn't a deal breaker either.
On our example the striker spring broke and jammed the slide. It was returned to Walther and we reported the FTE and FTF issues. Walther repaired the slide, said the gas tube wasn't clean enough and sent it back. Performance was not improved and my wife lost confidence in the pistol.
