Carry the keltec pf9 everyday. Great carry gun not a range gun.

I carry the kel tec .380.. as stated above, great carry, not a great range gun.. NOt sure on the price for a sccy, but for less than $250 for the kel tec and good quality, im not too concerned about tearing it up.

I have a SCCY CPX-2 and I really like it. Less than $300 out the door at my local joint. It shoots well enough for a DAO gun. Build quality is nice for its price range and comes with 2 mags w/flat and pinky extension floorplates for both mags as opposed to all others in its range which come with only 1 mag. It also has a lifetime warranty that goes with the gun not the original owner. I bought it for a pistol to always keep in the car. Cheap, shoots well, if it gets stolen no biggie, I'm not in it for a lot of scratch.

I haven't shot the sccy yet, but it feels better to me and I can see the sights better. Have looked at both.

Never played with a SCCY but I am a happy Kel Tec P11 owner. Very easy to carry, not much wider than their single stack offering, and not terribly unpleasant to shoot once you learn to manipulate the trigger.

I own a cpx-2 sccy as well and I like it. Like PonchoMike says its not a range gun to be sure but i like it for keeping in the truck and im not worried if it gets stolen or beat up. i have about 400 down the pipe of mine and havent had a ftf or fte yet and have fed tula through winchester in it. This was my first gun with a DAO trigger but once I got used to that its pretty accurate as well. Grips are nice and i have the pinky extensions on the mag. Sights are decent and I gave less than $200 new on GB for it.

Never heard of SCCY until this post, I have owned a few KelTec 380/PF9/PF11 and have liked them all. But im curious and want I get my hands on one of these. Where is there a dealer around Garland?
