Hello Everyone

[Just Ed]

I have a SCCY CPX1 that I have had since Sep 2020. I have only managed to fire around 50 rounds down range simply because the weapon feels like it is about to explode in my hand when I fire it. I have experienced recoil wit a weapon and I am no novice. As an Army veteran I am an experienced shooter and qualified expert on every weapon I fired with exception of the M60 machine gun. My problem with this weapon, and I may be overthinking it but my trigger finger after 5 mags was actually bruised because of the recoil and shootability of the weapon. Also, the palm space between the trigger finger and thumb takes a beating with this weapon also. I don’t consider my self to be a softer by any means and my hands are quite tough. It just seems to me that it could be so much easier to shoot because it really is a nice weapon for the price. Maybe it’s just me. Anyone else have this issue and what did you do to improve it?? Please help!!

Welcome.
Small, light, polymer pistols will do that to you. Others will chime in and help you out (some will even tell you to buy a 1911)

No fair jumping right to the correct answer!

Not every gun will fit every person. It just might not be the best option for you. But, one thing you can try and this is assuming you were shooting 115g ammunition, is to try some 147g. The heavier load tends to push back instead of snapping up like typical 115g does. It might make it a bit easier to handle.

As noted, that's a common issue with light guns.

You should be ashamed of yourself keeping all that hardware locked away like that. Do you know how many under privileged gun owners could use one of those pistols.

Also when I shot my Beretta 92FS It was so smooth and effortless that I never picked up the SCCY again. Seems I can’t give the darn thing away either
