Heckler & Koch (HK) has released its new CC9 micro-compact, striker-fired 9x19mm pistol. With great accuracy, ergonomics, and reliability, the HK CC9 should be a top choice among micro-compact pistols. Designed and produced in the USA, this is the smallest double-stack carry pistol HK has ever built. The CC9 features a modular grip with swappable backstraps. With a “Safe Take Down Feature” for disassembly, there is no need to pull the trigger during field-striping, making the CC9 safer than a Glock. The slide is optics-ready and there is a short Picatinny rail on the front of the polymer frame for mounting accessories. The micro-compact CC9 is 6.03″ long and 0.99″ wide. The barrel is 3.32″ long and the CC9 weighs 18.4 ounces without magazine. MSRP is currently $699.00.

Compact and Concealable:
As the smallest double-stack pistol HK has ever produced, the CC9 should be a good choice for for concealed carry. Chambered in 9mm Luger (9x19mm), the CC9 comes equipped with both 10-round and 12-round magazines for flexibility in concealment. The CC9’s slim and relatively lightweight design (18.4 ounces without mag) features ambidextrous controls including slide-stop and magazine release. The edges of the slide are rounded for easier carry and smooth holstering.

Military-Grade Testing:
The CC9 is held to the same standards as full-size duty pistols and tested to NATO Army Armaments Group AC/225 standards. The CC9 was subjected to a battery of tests including extreme temperatures, dust, sand, mud and being dropped to simulate real world conditions. The CC9 had over 750 thousand rounds fired during development and testing. The CC9 is built to perform flawlessly in the most demanding conditions.

HK claims the CC9 delivers exceptional accuracy and control. The chassis system is rated for full +P 9mm ammo. The CC9 features a modular grip with interchangeable backstraps to fit various hand sizes. Boasting good ergonomics, the CC9 offers a full 4-finger grip and the same length of pull as the full-sized VP9 pistol. The trigger is smooth and consistent (better than a Glock in our opinion) and recoil is very manageable. Watch the embedded videos to see the new CC9 in action. The optics-ready CC9 features a tritium front sight, and a blacked-out, serrated rear sight for quick target acquisition.


Safety is integral to the CC9’s design. The pistol is equipped with multiple safety features, including a trigger safety, passive firing pin safety, Out-of-Battery safety and Safe Take Down Feature. The magazine must also be removed before the take-down lever can be rotated. Additionally, the CC9 includes a visual/tactile loaded chamber indicator built-in to the extractor.

Designed for modern concealed carry, the CC9 is 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 featuring a RMSc / 407k footprint compatible with most modern micro-dots.
