CP meaning "Competition Pistol". Ever since the PMR-30 came out people have been asking for a 22LR version. Well here it is, although they went down a different track with it. At first I was like, why is it bigger and heavier than my 22mag PMR-30?
Looks like they're trying to compete in the mid range target pistol market against the Ruger MK series, S&W Victory, etc. Seems to be accurate enough and has a fixed barrel/slide to easily accommodate supressors and optics.
The big difference? It holds 33rds in the magazine, and a 50rd is on the way. There also appears to be additional features designed specifically to support suppressed shooting.
