Heckler & Koch has been famous for creating precisely engineered and super-reliable handguns for a long time. For years, H&K fans have been waiting for a a micro-compact, concealed-carry-ready pistol from the famed manufacturer ... and as of 2024, that wait is over. It's called the CC9, and it's an all-new micro-compact, striker-fired pistol perfected for CCW.
As you may have guessed from its moniker, the "cc" in HK CC9 stands for concealed carry--but HK assures us that this handgun created for a uniquely American freedom is held to the same standards as H&K's firearms designed for military and law-enforcement use in Europe. Those standards are no joke: The CC9 was subjected to a battery of tests including extreme temperatures, dust, sand, mud and being dropped to simulate real world conditions. Built to HKs’ renowned durability standards, the CC9 had over 750,000 rounds fired during development and testing.
The CC9 is the smallest double-stack pistol HK has ever produced. It's less than an inch wide, with an overall length of 6". As you may also have guessed from its name, it's chambered in 9mm. The gun comes equipped with both a 10-round and 12-round magazine, for flexibility. Speaking of flexibility, this firearm has mirrored ambidextrous controls, so lefties and righties will adjust to its operation easily. The CC9 adapts to the user’s needs featuring a modular grip system with interchangeable backstraps that allows for personalized customization.
Of course, safety is integral to the CC9’s design. The pistol is equipped with all the safety features NRA families like to see, including a trigger safety, passive firing pin safety, Out-of-Battery safety and Safe Take Down Feature for safe disassembly – no need to pull the trigger during field-striping. Additionally, the CC9 includes a visual and tactile loaded chamber indicator built-in to the extractor.
Heckler & Koch didn't sacrifice shootability for concealability and safety. The CC9 handles like a full-size pistol and delivers exceptional accuracy and control while being built on a full +P rated chassis system. With a full four-finger grip and the same length of pull as the full-sized VP9, the CC9 stays on target when it matters most. Its advanced trigger system ensures smooth, consistent pulls, while the enhanced recoil management allows for rapid, accurate follow-up shots.
The CC9 is also compatible with a wide range of accessories, including lights and lasers, with its integrated Picatinny-style accessory rail. Optics can be mounted directly to the slide with a RMSc / 407k footprint, which is compatible with most modern reflex sights. Prefer to use your irons? The CC9 comes out of the box with a tritium front sight and a blacked-out serrated rear sight. It's shipping now! MSRP $699; HK-USA.com.
