Has anyone handled this weapon? I know there a good many CZ fanboys. Is this more like a G19 in size?

Awesome gun. The slide is a hair longer than the G19, and the grip is a tiny bit longer than the G19 is well. Awesome ergonomics, and no more "glock knuckle" to deal with. Far superior trigger than any Glock. The slide stop takes some breaking in. And the early models had stiff mag releases with a loaded mag already inserted, but tbey have worked that out.

It fits in my G19 holsters as well.

Love this gun.
 
They’ve been well under $400 for months. Even Hyatt was blowing them out.
 
The P10C is nice...….. I really don't think of it as a compact though..... it's almost full size.
 
Cdnn has them at 399.99 with night sights that is really not that bad.

Yeah that is a decent deal. The lowest I have seen them is the FDE one with nights sights for $379 shipped at Tombstone a few months ago. I almost pulled the trigger on it but there are too many other things in the works. Twogunjay on GB has them for $369 + shipping. Which ends up a little lower than CDNN. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/801719984

Yep that's not a bad deal at all.

Cdnn had an emp floor model sale a few weeks ago they were going at 699.00. So it just depends what they have at the moment.

I like mine, but I only have about 300 rounds through it. Trigger is just ok to me. But I don’t usually shoot striker fired guns so maybe it is ok for those. But my CZ Custom Protek 1 PCR is noticeably better. At 6x the price. :p

I also prefer the light LEM on my P30sk. But I need more time with the P10c.

You probably shouldn't ever let me get my mitts on that ProTek....it might turn into a hostage situation :D
 
decent striker fired pistol. i only kept mine for a few weeks. i thought i couldn’t shoot it for $h*¥ and sold it. then i realized i had some really bad ammo that was shooting all over the place with every pistol lol.

Unfortunately, I have a lifetime supply of that same ammo. :(

And imagine, I managed to buy it in every caliber they make.

I’ve sold and traded some pretty nice stuff, but the Protek is still here. Plus the prices for new ones have gone through the roof, so mine is a ‘cheap’ gun now. :p

Yep...I was looking at them today. $2k iirc.
Im considering trying to send CZC one of my PCRs and having them do unto it the Shadow package that they do to the SP01s.
Sucker would be su-weeeeet :D

Yeah I felt mine was a tiny bit overpriced for what it was, but I had the cash and the want. And that was when they were considerably cheaper than they are now. But they are sweet, and if you compare it to a custom 9mm 1911 they are a bargain. To me the Wilson EDC 9 or whatevr it is and the Proteks are functionally the same thing. So I can kind of see where CZC gets the $2k price, but it is steep. A P01 and a PCR with CGW goodies would be less. Something to think about. The weight savings on the Protek is negligible to me. I love the sight and action though.

I have three P01s with CGW goodies (one in shop Pro Pkg, one home installed Pro Pkg, one home installed Def Carry), one 75BD with home installed Pro Pkg.
They are all fantastic shooters, but none can compare to the smoothness that is my CZC SP01 Shadow. It just stands out a little more
That said, just today I ordered a Pro Pkg for one PCR and the short reach trigger to make that P01 def carry a pro pkg lol.
 
I've had both a SIG P320 and a CZ p10c for a while now, but haven't really had a chance to shoot them much.

I got the P10c in a trade and experienced quite a bit of trigger sting -- probably why the guy who traded with me wanted out of it. I nstalled an HBI trigger system for it, which pretty much ended the trigger sting, and improved the trigger a bit.

I went to the range (indoor) the other day and shot the CZ-P10c and the SIG P32 side by side. At 30' I was able to shoot 1" groups offhand with both of them, which surprised me (having only shot them for function tests prior to that). I seldom shoot new-to-me guns that well until I've spent more time with them.) And despite the fact that I had an upgraded trigger in the P10c (which was now good) I found that P320 trigger a bit better. I like both guns, and I'll keep them both. The sort of trigger bite I experienced with the P10c is not something you hear a lot about, so I wouldn't expect YOU to experience it if you bought one. (It can happen with other guns, including hammer-fired CZ compacts and a number of other brands, too)

I've seen both the CZ and the P320 being offered at sub-$400 prices recently, and I think they're both great deals at that price level.

( I've had a BUNCH of CZs and CZ pattern guns, and still have a couple of both types.)
 
Damn you're like a dog after a bone when you get after something...……...
