Default Bought my first cheap pistol

I was looking at some new pistols today at Independence Firearms (in Texas for those who dont know me) and the owner made me a deal I couldn't turn down on a SCCY CPX-2 9mm. Its made in the USA and has a lifetime warranty so I said what the hell. I will be shooting it tomorrow and will post up how it does. I am trying to stimulate the economy one gun at a time.

Give us a review after you shoot it. I almost bought one once cause they are pretty cheap. I just question reliabilty.

I just sold my first pistol back in December, it was that pistol, I hated it.

X2. I have looked at them for a year now but havent heard of anyone buying one yet. Please let us know after you get several rounds through it. Any feed issues.

We should have shot it while we were hanging out at the farm.
