About This Firearm
The Walther CCP M2 is a single-stack .380 built for concealed carry and home defense by someone who struggles with a slide. It has an MSRP of $499. Its SOFTCOIL gas system works against a fixed barrel, which keeps felt recoil low and leaves a slide light enough for a weak hand to pull back.
Two magazines come in the box, each holding eight rounds, and the sights are fixed front and rear. Takedown needs no tools. An external thumb safety sits on the frame, a loaded chamber indicator shows whether a round is up, and front and rear slide serrations give something to grip when racking it. Nothing else on the pistol adjusts, and there is no optic mounting.
If you're cross-shopping, the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ answers the same question with a grip safety and easy-load magazines, holding the same eight rounds at 18.3 oz with an MSRP of $469 on a shorter 5.05-inch grip. The Ruger Security-380 gets there with a conventional action and a lighter recoil spring, holding 15 rounds at 19.7 oz with an MSRP of $389, so it carries almost twice the ammunition.

Strengths & Limitations
- Tool-less takedown means the pistol strips on a kitchen table with nothing but your hands.
- The slide is steel on a polymer frame, and the gas system does work that a heavy recoil spring would otherwise have to do.
- The frame carries both a manual safety and an automatic internal safety, which is a belt-and-braces setup for a gun kept loaded.
- Eight rounds is thin next to a Ruger Security-380 carrying 15 in a package of similar size.
- There is no optic mounting, so the fixed sights are the whole sighting system on a pistol otherwise built for easy shooting.
- At that weight with a service-pistol grip height, it is not a pocket .380 whatever its single-stack width suggests.
