Description
The SCCY CPX-1 Black Stainless takes SCCY’s proven CPX-1 design and gives it a black frame and stainless steel slide. This one has a black frame and stainless steel slide, a 3.1″ barrel and holds 10 rounds in the magazine plus one in the chamber. It is small enough for pocket or appendix carry and still big enough to shoot well.
All-black is the classic carry look for a reason. It disappears in a holster and goes with everything.
Why people choose the SCCY CPX-1 Black Stainless
Going with 9mm means cheap practice, easy-to-find ammo and a long list of proven defensive loads. It is the round most carriers settle on.
Every CPX-1 is double-action-only and hammer-fired. Each pull of the trigger cocks and drops the hammer, so the pull is long, around 9 pounds, and it is the same every shot. Nothing sits partly cocked, and if a round ever fails to fire you can simply pull the trigger again for a second strike.
This model has a ambidextrous manual thumb safety. Some people want that extra step, especially if they are new to carrying or keep the gun in a bag or vehicle.
There is a short Picatinny rail up front if you want to add a compact light or laser.
Inside, SCCY uses its Roebuck Quad-Lock barrel system and a polymer frame around an aluminum chassis. The result is a pistol that stays light without feeling flimsy.
Who the CPX-1 is for
It is a strong choice if this is your first carry pistol, if you want a second gun for the car or the house, or if you just want something light enough that you will actually carry it every day.
Before you carry it, put a couple hundred rounds through it at the range so you know the trigger and how it groups. Pair it with a good holster that covers the trigger guard, and keep a spare magazine handy. Extra SCCY magazines are cheap and worth having.

Some states and cities limit which models or magazine sizes can be sold. Please check your local laws before you order. If we cannot legally ship to your area, we will cancel the order and refund you in full. See our FFL transfer page for the full details.
