I have just applied for a license for a p10c,cant wait to get my hands on it. Your videos helped me make the choice,thanks a brunch! Really like your honest and comprehensive reviews. Getting a license for a handgun in Sweden is a lengthy and complicated process, but it is possible. Seasons greetings to you all!
Tim, I saw your last review on this gun and I get the idea that you were a little disappointed, compared to the one you tried at the Czech republic. Specially on the recoil issue.
Military Arms Channel Tim, the other day you said you didn't like a trigger pull under 5lbs for a carry gun, sootch was getting 4.5 lbs. Would you carry this edc?
I can't say there was much different about the recoil, but the triggers definitely felt different. CZ reached out to me and said this pistol, which is still a "pre-production" sample for writers (yes, I have to send this one back but I will get another one!) it had the incorrect disconnector spring installed thus making my trigger a bit heavier than what the production guns will be. I'll report back when I'm able to get my hands on a production pistol.
Man I’m telling you what Scootch I’m loving my CZ P10c. It’s truly an amazing gun. The grip is phenomenal, trigger is the best I’ve ever shot, and recoil management is smooth as butter because of how high your hand gets up under the slide. I can get back on target very quickly. Thank you for reviewing this gun I bought mine based on your review and a few others. And now I’ve got about 600 rounds through mine. Awesome reviews brother keep them coming.
Perry Hughes Reviews by internet "experts" point to the CZ P-10C as being a highly regarded striker fired pistol. I prefer hammer fired so I'm deciding between the Sig P229 or the HK P30. Any suggestions, people?
UnabashedNationalist I'll call around. They're opening what's billed as the finest shooting range in the country in South Austin very soon called The Range at Austin. They should have both.
very true!! My new (20) 75 full polish stainless is the best shooting pistol I own. bullseye every shot! smooth quiet trigger for a hammer pistol. My newer springfield 1911 45 operator loaded is accurate also with the "Ultimate" trigger of any gun, but my 75 is still even more accurate.
I posted something on a board about it and CZ fans came out in full force, CZ is a great handgun but CZ can't keep up with demand and aftermarket parts are hard to come by. G19 killer handguns have come and not done well in that past and honestly I don't see it happening, Magazines itself are going to be next to impossible to get not to mention the goofy prices.
So, it's 00:17 in Dublin, kids are asleep, wife went to bed already as she has to get up in 5 hours to go to work and the FIRST thing I'm going to do on my own in 2017 is to watch this video. A good start :) HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I'm glad to see cz getting competitive lately they are my favorite manufacturer. I think glock really needs to step up their game if they want to hold onto the law enforcement market. I'd rather have a cz then a stock glock
Great review, thank you! I bought this gun last week, my first gun. The hand feel is indeed great. I was shooting at the range for my first time last week and my hands were sweating, the aggressive grip 'knurl' was just what I needed for best control. My trigger doesn't seem as smooth as you showed, but I have not fired mine yet, taking it to the range next week. I hadn't fired a gun prior to buying this one, but I got on the range with a rented CZ P10 C, and shot 25 rounds, then I bought one. I look fwd to shooting my gun next week at the C2 Tactical range where I bought it. God bless America #2ndamendment
I have this unit in black - probably one of the nicest if not THE nicest striker fired Compacts that have hit the market in years a superb firearm and the price is right ...
When I spoke to the people from CZUB, they said the full size and subcompact versions are ready. They are just waiting to give the P10C some time to hit the market :-)
This has become my EDC even over my glocks. You don't know me well, but that's a strong statement from me. I hold the P10c in the highest regard. Thanks for the video, I thoroughly enjoyed it. God bless brother!
Just to let everyone know, the trigger take-up smoothes out after some time. I've had my p10c for over 2 years now and it's only gotten better. Never malfunctioned. Hard "running and gunning" training and out shot the glock guys with me.
CZ sure knows how to put together a gorgeous looking handgun. I can't say I'm a huge fan of tan pistols; but man is that a fine looking weapon. It doesn't hurt that CZ weapons are so well made.
Sootchoo always nail it right at the head. You're the most excellent speaker and analyst anout guns. Thank you so much. We always learn and discover much from your reviews. ❤
Little bigger and heavier than the G19, mags are a little more expensive, SLIGHTLY more felt recoil. Still, i think this is a better gun than the G19. I love it. CZ really listened to the Glock criticisms and and did a great job taking the positives, and fixing the negatives.
Jake Johannesen am I the only one that would trade metal cz mags for polymer mags if it makes the mags less expensive? And if we mill the slide that will help with the weight. Just ideas.
Great review like always. Everybody in the gun community are exited to know more about the CZ P10C...it has the chance to become the "new norm" of the industry. I appreciate your perfectionist approach on every little detail of your reviews. Thanks for your honesty and love for the gun community.
Finally bought one and love it. CZ can't make these fast enough. When I got mine there were two of us on the list for this gun. Both were sold and they were never even displayed in the store. These guns are just HOT. The trigger is just the best out of the box.
Yet another great review, sir! I just purchased an HK VP9 a few days ago. I have sent roughly 415 rounds through it with no malfunctions! Love that gun! Have a great New Year, Sootch!
Bought the czp10c it is the most accurate gun I have ever shot at 10 yards.A friend and I were in the gun store and the first time I held one I had to have it I traded my czpo7 and although I liked the po7 I like the p10c ten times better.Im not saying it's better than a Glock but the Glock is going to have to be some kind of gun to beat this.
I love watching gun videos! I own most all these new "glock killers" that came out the last few years. all great shooting pistols, but the p10c definitely "IS" "THEE" glock killer! Any real gun people that shoot a lot know the p10c is a formidable pistol!
Lol, loved it in the bloopers when you actually looked at the pistol to remind yourself what it was called! God bless ya Sootch. Thanks for the review...got my eye on this one for myself.
Definitely the gun next in line on my must have list. Strangely alot of people don't know about CZ, I'm hoping that remains the case until I can pick one up. There expecting it to be a real hot commodity!?
APB 28 ha ha ha ha...you devil but to be honest, i was a Handgun Lover for a loooong time now from 1997 until now, i have never ever heard the name CZ before in my life until i saw it with the reviewers here in the youtube and the first gun i saw from them is this P10C i hope one day they allow guns here in the KSA so we can enjoy them too
Solid review. I can see this pistol putting more market pressure on Springfield, S&W and Walther than on Glock. The CZ challenge will be meeting market demand, getting a sub-compact to market as quickly as possible and keeping magazine costs competitive.
Sootch, I subscribed to your channel because I like the fact that you tell it as you see it. No punches pulled. Personally , I love CZ handguns. I can't wait to get the new P10 !
Had the p10c now for a while. It's now my main carry pistol. Sold my g19, ppq, tp9, American, etc. It just plain outshines with the trigger, comfort, styling. Only other poly pistols I have and love are the XDM series. Those great quality too!
Comparisons are done with guns that are common to most people. It's the biggest reason I use Glock a lot. Steyr makes really good guns but they aren't as popular. Hopefully I'll be able to get one for review at some point. Thanks
I was actually eyeing up the Steyr at one point but for the price I simply couldn't justify it over the Glock, sadly. The grip angle on the Steyr is INTENSE, even compared to the Glock!
First off, respect to sootch00. Such an awesome review of the CZ. This is the 2nd review I've watched. Bottom line, for me, I will purchase this pistol. That was some of your better groupings with this pistol. I'm excited, impressed and ready to buy. Help me find one!! 👍👍👍
Great vid, thanks for your opinion on this handgun. I am very interested. I still regret selling my CZ75B compact, but I used that money to enter the striker fire polymer world. This looks like the best of both! Hope the CZ quality control remains high during what may be a huge demand surge. Good to see you supporting your N.C. compatriots as well. Happy New Year Sootch!
In a world where everyone is going striker fired, I liked that CZ was still maintaining hammer fired relevance. And this pistol doesn't have the signature CZ, slide-riding-in-the-frame. Just not interested in this when a P09 or P07 is already a phenomenal gun.
ksztyrix I don't get why everyone talks up glock to the point of they are the king of pistols? Its funny all the glock fanboys upon purchase have to change the sights, grind off the finger grooves, Swap out the trigger (or connector), slide stop, take down tabs, mag release, grip plug and on and on and on....Doesn't seem so "perfect" to me? The CZ P10 C should definitely put up a challenge!
Nick Palie Too many things nto list right? On my Glock 17 I even put grip tape where my left thumb goes right in front of the breakdown switch so I'm glad gun makers are putting texture there.
I have TZ-75 series 88, which is a TZ-75 made by Tanfoglio, which is Italian. It's an all metal gun, I haven't touched in years, it was a birthday gift from my mom way back in the early 90's, she passed away in 2021 and I can't bring myself to get rid of it. But it is HEAVY being all metal, I'd almost forgotten what it's like to hold an all metal handgun other than the Colt 45 my dad had in Korea. I just love my CZ P0-7 second gen. I can drive nails with it at 10 to 15 feet.
I have three Glocks, a 20, a 22,& 23. I dion't hate them, but my CZ's, of which I have six, fit my hand so much better than any of my other hand guns, The first time I fondled a CZ 75, I thought; "Jeez, it feels just like my Hi Power". Thank you John nMoses Browning.
I am actually REALLY curious how aftermarket parts companies are going to improve on this trigger. Imagine most of that pre-travel removed with a forward set trigger, and the lack of overtravel that the trigger already has. I'm REALLY looking forward to what Apex and other companies bring to the table for it.
I'm with ya. I have numerous CZs and just not excited about a striker fired CZ that looks like a Glock. I'll take my all metal hammer fired DA/SAs. -Jen
Will Harrison Like MAC said if you don't like it sell it. Owning at least 8 pistols you should know guns hold their value. If you lose $50, who cares, consider it a rental fee. I have bought and sold many, about to sell my M&P because I just can't shoot it as well as I'd like.
Gideon Cooper I feel the exact opposite. I think striker fired wins all day with no safety, decocker and the same trigger pull. Steel frames seem cooler to me, because It feels like a gun, and looks like one too.
Gideon Cooper FTF with a center fired cartridge is HIGHLY unlikely. One of my favorite handguns is my CZ-75bd Police, da/sa decoder only, but one of my last choices for "self defense." I own both steel frame, aluminum frame, and polymer frame handguns, I just like guns. My point is, I never understood why one only shoots one or the other, or worse yet, only one brand such as Glock, or one model such as the 1911. Too many great guns. Don't get me started on AK vs AR!✌
Wow this looks like a great polymer pistol and a great home defense or range fun gun. I never see anyone around here with a CZ, they aren't the most popular for some reason. But I want one! I need to add this to my long list of "wants" lol. It never ends.
I've owned CZs for years and this is the striker fired pistol I have been waiting for CZ to produce. I will own the 9MM as well as the .40 variants just as soon as I can buy one of each. As soon as the hoopla dies down and prices stabilize I will own both. If you've never owned a CZ you are in for a treat.
I was thinking the same thing. With those roll pins I have to have a hammer and a good surface to safely manage those. Kind of a pain. I even have a nice little idiot mark on my Shield because of that. I still don't like the ergonomics on a Glock but they are so easy to tear down.
I reload my own ammo for about a dozen different calibers and I shoot between 10-20K rds per year. In general my rifles and range handguns that I don't carry don't get cleaned that often, but my carry gun does. I'll do a complete tear down and cleaning on my Glock 19 about every 3 to 5 times I shoot it which could be around every 1500 to 2000 rds. I own 13 other handguns from different makes and aside from the Sig P320 the glock is the absolute easiest to fully strip and clean. It literally only takes about 5 minutes when another gun might take 5 times longer to fully strip and detail clean. Because of that and because I shoot a lot the 1st thing I look at when it comes to a gun I might buy in the future is how easy it will be to fully tear down.
Great video !! I purchased one of these in FDE and took it to the range. The way the frame is contoured below the slide in the back caused an excessive thumb bite for me, so bad in fact that I sold the pistol. Otherwise the gun was flawless. Thanks for your reviews, they are dead on !
for what ? Glock doesnt own patent on striker fire mechanism. So what exactly would you say is Glock intellectual property that would require CZ to pay royalties from theyr design ?
sootch00 Thanks for your great videos! Just recently upgraded my SD9VE by watching your video. And now....after this video, there is a new pistol in my future. Happy New Year.
I just bought one and awaiting delivery (today is 12-5-23). You got your wish of a sub compact model. But I bought the P10-C version because I think the plain non optic C model is still made in Czech instead of Kansas so will have legendary finish and fit quality. Long live Republic? yes indeed, just vote for people who don't attack the capital and it will live forever.
Scootch what do you think about how the govt took away people's guns in Katrina , and how can we make sure it doesn't happen to us? I live on an island so I'd likely be better off not bugging out and after watching videos of police and BLACKWATER taking people's guns it really was a reality check and now I'd like to have a plan.
There were many State Gov't that passed laws protecting gun rights during a National Emergency after what happened during Katrina. But to be forewarned is forearmed. Having a plan is no. 1. Be smart.
Great review sootch00. I finally found one this past week and grabbed it. It was everything you said it was. Amazing trigger, wonderful grip, very accurate pistol. Keep up the good work! Thanks man
man I want one of those. I am more excited about this than I was about the vp9 when I saw hk was coming out with that, and im an hk guy. looks like cz really hit the sweet spot with that pistol with the size, grip, trigger, slide machining. damn I want one.
Looks like a winner! That said, the PPQ gets a little flack for being a carry pistol because the trigger is light and smooth. Haven't yet heard any reviewers yet state that particular concern with the CZ yet. Since the trigger is indeed yet lighter and smoother...I wonder if ppl will also say the same thing. Personally I'd be fine with carrying this or the PPQ
That reaction @ 13:52? I still have that reaction on a regular basis whenever I've been shooting something else for a while and go back to my CZ's. Which is usually followed by asking myself, "why do I even bother with anything else?"
I have a Glock 26 which I carry aiwb, but my all-time favorite is my CZ75-P01. It is - without question - one of the finest guns ever made. I'm not a marksman by any stretch of the imagination, but the CZ lets me shoot like one. Good video.
The indoor range that I'm a member of has one for rent to shoot. I have read and heard some good things about CZ so I shot it. My reaction " WOW" A smooth trigger, great sights and a nice recoil. Two of the guys that work at the range said they traded in their Glocks for CZs. CZ will be my next pistol
Love the look over the BLOCK. BLOCK fanboys would need to spend more money or mods to get some of features (trigger, front slide serrations, grip undercut) this new pistol already provides.
awesome review, now I'm even more excited about It!!
I have just applied for a license for a p10c,cant wait to get my hands on it. Your videos helped me make the choice,thanks a brunch! Really like your honest and comprehensive reviews. Getting a license for a handgun in Sweden is a lengthy and complicated process, but it is possible. Seasons greetings to you all!
Ahoj z české republiky , vlastním čz p10F hodně povedená zbraň, u nás v ČR licence(povolení) max.měsíc, ale většinou 14 dní.
Great video, I'm glad you got your hands on one.
Tim, I saw your last review on this gun and I get the idea that you were a little disappointed, compared to the one you tried at the Czech republic. Specially on the recoil issue.
Military Arms Channel Tim, the other day you said you didn't like a trigger pull under 5lbs for a carry gun, sootch was getting 4.5 lbs. Would you carry this edc?
Thanks Brother, looking forward to your Gauntlet test.... I have my fingers crossed! Lol! Happy New Year!
I won't carry any striker fired pistol anymore as I carry appendix.
I can't say there was much different about the recoil, but the triggers definitely felt different. CZ reached out to me and said this pistol, which is still a "pre-production" sample for writers (yes, I have to send this one back but I will get another one!) it had the incorrect disconnector spring installed thus making my trigger a bit heavier than what the production guns will be.

Man what a great time we're living in. Pistols just keep getting better and better and better!q
Man I’m telling you what Scootch I’m loving my CZ P10c. It’s truly an amazing gun. The grip is phenomenal, trigger is the best I’ve ever shot, and recoil management is smooth as butter because of how high your hand gets up under the slide. I can get back on target very quickly.

Awesome reviews brother keep them coming.
I have several CZs and they are great quality pistols that are buttery smooth to shoot and dead nuts accurate.
Tim Whitlock Smoother and more accurate than a Sig P229 or P250? I'm asking for my first CCW.
UnabashedNationalist how do you know you haven't shot a CZ p10 and your already recommending it! 😂 dumb ass people!!!
Perry Hughes Reviews by internet "experts" point to the CZ P-10C as being a highly regarded striker fired pistol. I prefer hammer fired so I'm deciding between the Sig P229 or the HK P30. Any suggestions, people?

Let's hope CZ can make enough for the masses!
Scott Person That's what I'm thinking too!!
There is gonna be huge sales for this gun if CZ can produce enough of them. I would also like to see a full size and a subcompact version.
David H yeah but we know they can't!!!
A subcompact would be awesome
I posted something on a board about it and CZ fans came out in full force, CZ is a great handgun but CZ can't keep up with demand and aftermarket parts are hard to come by. G19 killer handguns have come and not done well in that past and honestly I don't see it happening, Magazines itself are going to be next to impossible to get not to mention the goofy prices.
Another reliable striker fired pistol. Should be a success especially with the popularity of CZ's pistols in today's world
So, it's 00:17 in Dublin, kids are asleep, wife went to bed already as she has to get up in 5 hours to go to work and the FIRST thing I'm going to do on my own in 2017 is to watch this video. A good start :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy New Year my friend.
when Im fixin to purchase a new piece, I go to SOOTCH for a Solid/Honest/ No Nonsense Review.
I'm glad to see cz getting competitive lately they are my favorite manufacturer. I think glock really needs to step up their game if they want to hold onto the law enforcement market. I'd rather have a cz then a stock glock
I just got a P-07 for my birthday after Turkey Day. Both mags had the P-10C slot on them.

They need to make this in a Rami sized sub compact.
I just bought one today! And I love the way it fits in my hand. Great quality and affordable
Such a beautiful and reliable 9mm pistol
Great review sir! Thank you. I know this video is over 6 yrs. But I'm looking to replace my sig p320 xc and this might be the one. 🙏🏽🇺🇸
okay so I bought a Windham Weaponry 7.62x39 because of your video and now this video comes out and I'll be buying this because of you! LOL
over time, if this gun proves itself reliably, we have a major winner...fantastic review thanks sootch!!
looks great
Mrgunsngear Channel I smell a review in the future from you bossman. I mean If you wanted to.
they need to put one into your hands, and all our paws

Sootchoo always nail it right at the head. You're the most excellent speaker and analyst anout guns. Thank you so much. We always learn and discover much from your reviews. ❤
I like it. better beaver tail than Glock. better looking slide than Glock. better grips than Glock.
It looks like an absolutely amazing pistol. We are in gun heaven these days I swear.
And better bore axis, and better trigger, and ambidextrous functionality, and metal sights, and smoother mag release, all around better gun
Little bigger and heavier than the G19, mags are a little more expensive, SLIGHTLY more felt recoil. Still, i think this is a better gun than the G19. I love it. CZ really listened to the Glock criticisms and and did a great job taking the positives, and fixing the negatives.
What a joke. Nobody wants that pos. A huge Glock fail.
Jake Johannesen am I the only one that would trade metal cz mags for polymer mags if it makes the mags less expensive? And if we mill the slide that will help with the weight. Just ideas.

Thanks Messina, I appreciate your comment. Happy New Year!
cz p10,walther creed,canik elite. 3 guns less than 1200 all together = winning..... will be in my safe whenever available
Finally bought one and love it. CZ can't make these fast enough. When I got mine there were two of us on the list for this gun. Both were sold and they were never even displayed in the store. These guns are just HOT. The trigger is just the best out of the box.
I can hardly wait for it to be released. Licking my chops!
Yet another great review, sir! I just purchased an HK VP9 a few days ago. I have sent roughly 415 rounds through it with no malfunctions! Love that gun! Have a great New Year, Sootch!

I'm 100% sold on this, coming from a Gen 2 CZ - P07 Duty 9MM.
Excellent video, excellent quality, subscribed.
This looks like what a Glock 19 should be from the factory.
Lol, loved it in the bloopers when you actually looked at the pistol to remind yourself what it was called! God bless ya Sootch. Thanks for the review...got my eye on this one for myself.
beefy internals of that cz may imply a 10mm in the forecast
Joe Strother that would be great
That would be crazy. It'd be a huge contender.
Don't say that, my wallet is within earshot.
There was a demo video here on youtube of a 97b in 10mm...but that was all
LOL, good one Omnis !!! {=^)
That was a terrific review, you left no stone unturned. CZ was not on my radar, but it is now. Good job
Definitely the gun next in line on my must have list. Strangely alot of people don't know about CZ, I'm hoping that remains the case until I can pick one up. There expecting it to be a real hot commodity!?
APB 28
ha ha ha ha...you devil
but to be honest, i was a Handgun Lover for a loooong time now
from 1997 until now, i have never ever heard the name CZ before in my life
until i saw it with the reviewers here in the youtube
and the first gun i saw from them is this P10C
i hope one day they allow guns here in the KSA
so we can enjoy them too
Can't wait to get my hands on one of those!!! Been wanting to get something from CZ. This and the sp 01 are on my list.
Sootch you are the man. Trump needs to put you in charge of the ATF.
Solid review. I can see this pistol putting more market pressure on Springfield, S&W and Walther than on Glock. The CZ challenge will be meeting market demand, getting a sub-compact to market as quickly as possible and keeping magazine costs competitive.
They are ganna do a full size more than likely and call it a day, just my guess. Their full size guns are a dream to shoot.
Very nice!
Sootch, I subscribed to your channel because I like the fact that you tell it as you see it. No punches pulled. Personally , I love CZ handguns. I can't wait to get the new P10 !
Im not a strikerfire fan but I may have to buy this one.
mojo jojo oh so your just a CZ fan???
well im a CZ fan with a P07 as EDC. this might be the first striker fire that i like enough to buy
My country Philippines immensely appreciates your reviews.
so when does the single stack come out?
Had the p10c now for a while. It's now my main carry pistol. Sold my g19, ppq, tp9, American, etc. It just plain outshines with the trigger, comfort, styling. Only other poly pistols I have and love are the XDM series. Those great quality too!
"C" must stand for Cool cause Compacts seem to keep getting bigger and bigger through out the years.
POGMarineFPS The Reloading Bench this is more sub compact
OH HELL YEA ...THANKS FOR THE REVIEW...ALREADY CALLED ONE IN AT THE LGS
Why do all reviewers skip over comparing these pistols to those made by Steyr? Steyr has had the great price, ergonomics and triggers for years
Comparisons are done with guns that are common to most people. It's the biggest reason I use Glock a lot. Steyr makes really good guns but they aren't as popular. Hopefully I'll be able to get one for review at some point. Thanks
I was actually eyeing up the Steyr at one point but for the price I simply couldn't justify it over the Glock, sadly. The grip angle on the Steyr is INTENSE, even compared to the Glock!
Which Steyr has a comparable trigger?
I believe he's referring to the new A1 series (M/S/L/C-A1) of Steyr pistols. Many stray away from Steyr due to the lack of aftermarket support.
First off, respect to sootch00. Such an awesome review of the CZ. This is the 2nd review I've watched. Bottom line, for me, I will purchase this pistol. That was some of your better groupings with this pistol. I'm excited, impressed and ready to buy. Help me find one!! 👍👍👍
I just got those impact earmuffs. I am a drummer and was hoping they are good. Glad to see they are used by a credible source!
CZ > Glock

Soulman1282 I agree! The P07 and P09 are sexy guns but this thing looks like a Taurus rip off! Not excited at all!!
+Perry Hughes did you even know what you are talking do this gun FIre by itself?
I like the fact that CZ did what good companies do, meet the demands of its customers. Some people wanted a striker fired CZ and they delivered.
Soulman1282 I like the PO7 and PO9 but after two broken trigger return springs in under 5,000 rounds I gave up.
So since when men bought cute guns?
Great review. Clear and very objective, focusing on the points that are really important at the first glance.
Congrats.
Thanks Flavio!
Glock killer? CZ propably will be cheaper, plus better ergonomics.
ksztyrix I don't get why everyone talks up glock to the point of they are the king of pistols? Its funny all the glock fanboys upon purchase have to change the sights, grind off the finger grooves, Swap out the trigger (or connector), slide stop, take down tabs, mag release, grip plug and on and on and on....Doesn't seem so "perfect" to me? The CZ P10 C should definitely put up a challenge!
adam briar They are not best from long time. And IMO little overpriced now. But I'm talking about taking that market position from Glock.
That plastic guide rod was the first thing I swapped out.
No need to change out the poly guide rod.
Nick Palie Too many things nto list right? On my Glock 17 I even put grip tape where my left thumb goes right in front of the breakdown switch so I'm glad gun makers are putting texture there.
I have TZ-75 series 88, which is a TZ-75 made by Tanfoglio, which is Italian. It's an all metal gun, I haven't touched in years, it was a birthday gift from my mom way back in the early 90's, she passed away in 2021 and I can't bring myself to get rid of it. But it is HEAVY being all metal, I'd almost forgotten what it's like to hold an all metal handgun other than the Colt 45 my dad had in Korea. I just love my CZ P0-7 second gen. I can drive nails with it at 10 to 15 feet.
I hate glock I've had three I think this will be a good replacement
I have three Glocks, a 20, a 22,& 23. I dion't hate them, but my CZ's, of which I have six, fit my hand so much better than any of my other hand guns, The first time I fondled a CZ 75, I thought; "Jeez, it feels just like my Hi Power". Thank you John nMoses Browning.
Such a crazy selection of excellent handguns these days, it's harder to find a bad decision than a good one.
still like the old 75 steel with hammer
My favorite pistols in the world: Walther PDP models, CZ P models, and the Canik TP9 models. All of them 3 superb modern combat handguns.
Nice gun, i'd still choose a G19,,,
There are shit loads of awesome guns now, still waiting on a compact VP9, now that i will jump on in a heartbeat,,,
THEZOMBIEBUNKER they announced the Vp9 subcompact
For real? Share a link man,,,
I cant wait, the only gun i desire more than a Glock,,,
I can't wait for this! Already have a P-01 and a P-07
looks like an apex trigger shoe
I thought the same thing!!!
I am actually REALLY curious how aftermarket parts companies are going to improve on this trigger. Imagine most of that pre-travel removed with a forward set trigger, and the lack of overtravel that the trigger already has. I'm REALLY looking forward to what Apex and other companies bring to the table for it.
Alexander De Santis cz customs (ghost products) im mesa az can turn any cz trigger into perfection, my p07,p09,scorpion, and 75b all done by them A++
And Me I'm referring more along the lines of drop in triggers, not one you'd have to ship the pistol to a gunsmith for.
Alexander De Santis
Thank you for lowering the levels on the intro music!
Well,...I own 8 CZ pistols, none are striker fire (plastic) & I doubt I ever will.
I'm with ya. I have numerous CZs and just not excited about a striker fired CZ that looks like a Glock. I'll take my all metal hammer fired DA/SAs.

Why limit yourself? Try one. You can always sell it. I don't think you would sell it once you shot it a bit... but I could be wrong.
Will Harrison
Like MAC said if you don't like it sell it. Owning at least 8 pistols you should know guns hold their value. If you lose $50, who cares, consider it a rental fee. I have bought and sold many, about to sell my M&P because I just can't shoot it as well as I'd like.
Gideon Cooper
I feel the exact opposite. I think striker fired wins all day with no safety, decocker and the same trigger pull. Steel frames seem cooler to me, because It feels like a gun, and looks like one too.
Gideon Cooper
FTF with a center fired cartridge is HIGHLY unlikely. One of my favorite handguns is my CZ-75bd Police, da/sa decoder only, but one of my last choices for "self defense." I own both steel frame, aluminum frame, and polymer frame handguns, I just like guns. My point is, I never understood why one only shoots one or the other, or worse yet, only one brand such as Glock, or one model such as the 1911. Too many great guns. Don't get me started on AK vs AR!✌
A very good review of this weapon. I was glad to see the comparisons of the Glock 19 and Walther PPQ to this.
This is the responce. And Cz kills Glock like Apple killed Jack ;)
Wow this looks like a great polymer pistol and a great home defense or range fun gun. I never see anyone around here with a CZ, they aren't the most popular for some reason. But I want one! I need to add this to my long list of "wants" lol. It never ends.
Hey Sootch today is my birthday can I get a reply back?! Love your videos!!
I'll reply. Happy Birthday!
ha thanks man.
Hey Matt! Happy Birthday my friend!
Yes! Thanks!
Matt Man88 well happy birthday since it’s been a year I’m guessing it’s coming again soon
I’m late to the party but I’m picking mine up from my local dealer tomorrow. Cannot wait to take this out to the range.
My HK vp9 is 6 pounds on my Lyman trigger scale.. I am a bit jealous of that 4.5 pound trigger.
I've owned CZs for years and this is the striker fired pistol I have been waiting for CZ to produce. I will own the 9MM as well as the .40 variants just as soon as I can buy one of each. As soon as the hoopla dies down and prices stabilize I will own both. If you've never owned a CZ you are in for a treat.
I like everything except the use of roll pins which means a glock is still easier to fully tear down.
I was thinking the same thing. With those roll pins I have to have a hammer and a good surface to safely manage those. Kind of a pain. I even have a nice little idiot mark on my Shield because of that. I still don't like the ergonomics on a Glock but they are so easy to tear down.
Prepare2Survive how often do you really need to completely strip the frame? Sounds like an excuse. Hk uses roll pins and many others.
I reload my own ammo for about a dozen different calibers and I shoot between 10-20K rds per year. In general my rifles and range handguns that I don't carry don't get cleaned that often, but my carry gun does. I'll do a complete tear down and cleaning on my Glock 19 about every 3 to 5 times I shoot it which could be around every 1500 to 2000 rds. I own 13 other handguns from different makes and aside from the Sig P320 the glock is the absolute easiest to fully strip and clean. It literally only takes about 5 minutes when another gun might take 5 times longer to fully strip and detail clean. Because of that and because I shoot a lot the 1st thing I look at when it comes to a gun I might buy in the future is how easy it will be to fully tear down.
Great video !! I purchased one of these in FDE and took it to the range. The way the frame is contoured below the slide in the back caused an excessive thumb bite for me, so bad in fact that I sold the pistol. Otherwise the gun was flawless. Thanks for your reviews, they are dead on !
In order to look like an "operator" on RUclips you need to have a beard now. LOL
Yeah, but mines White so I look even older and less of an operator.... which I'm not. LoL!
I asked for, and received, a shoot dummies kit. Thanks Sootch , for introducing it to me.
looks like CZ needs to pay Glock some royalties
ROMALD Hullum the first thought in my head was, so it's a glock 19 clone lol
for what ?
Glock doesnt own patent on striker fire mechanism.
So what exactly would you say is Glock intellectual property that would require CZ to pay royalties from theyr design ?
ROMALD Hullum imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!!!!!
its a glock copy
How?
sootch00 Thanks for your great videos! Just recently upgraded my SD9VE by watching your video. And now....after this video, there is a new pistol in my future. Happy New Year.
Nice!!!!!!
I just bought one and awaiting delivery (today is 12-5-23). You got your wish of a sub compact model. But I bought the P10-C version because I think the plain non optic C model is still made in Czech instead of Kansas so will have legendary finish and fit quality. Long live Republic? yes indeed, just vote for people who don't attack the capital and it will live forever.
Scootch what do you think about how the govt took away people's guns in Katrina , and how can we make sure it doesn't happen to us? I live on an island so I'd likely be better off not bugging out and after watching videos of police and BLACKWATER taking people's guns it really was a reality check and now I'd like to have a plan.
Sootch^
There were many State Gov't that passed laws protecting gun rights during a National Emergency after what happened during Katrina. But to be forewarned is forearmed. Having a plan is no. 1. Be smart.
+sootch00 interesting. That was scary to say the least. Have to make a hidden stash.
thanks for pointing out extras like thiness in frame and texture next to the take down lever I need this CZ now thanks sootch
Great review sootch00. I finally found one this past week and grabbed it. It was everything you said it was. Amazing trigger, wonderful grip, very accurate pistol. Keep up the good work! Thanks man
man I want one of those. I am more excited about this than I was about the vp9 when I saw hk was coming out with that, and im an hk guy. looks like cz really hit the sweet spot with that pistol with the size, grip, trigger, slide machining. damn I want one.
I have the P01 and the PCR which are simply awesome. Was very excited to hear the P10C was coming...cant wait
Looks like a winner! That said, the PPQ gets a little flack for being a carry pistol because the trigger is light and smooth. Haven't yet heard any reviewers yet state that particular concern with the CZ yet. Since the trigger is indeed yet lighter and smoother...I wonder if ppl will also say the same thing. Personally I'd be fine with carrying this or the PPQ
Big time kudos for directly comparing it to the PPQ. Sincerely, an anxious lefty.
Happy New Year, sir. I thoroughly enjoy your videos.
I've been waiting for a strikerfired CZ. This is definitely on my list for 2017. Great video, thanks.
That reaction @ 13:52? I still have that reaction on a regular basis whenever I've been shooting something else for a while and go back to my CZ's. Which is usually followed by asking myself, "why do I even bother with anything else?"
My favorite handgun no contest. It's accurate, has great grip and recoil. My most trusted firearm that i would bet my life on.
I have a Glock 26 which I carry aiwb, but my all-time favorite is my CZ75-P01. It is - without question - one of the finest guns ever made. I'm not a marksman by any stretch of the imagination, but the CZ lets me shoot like one. Good video.
The indoor range that I'm a member of has one for rent to shoot. I have read and heard some good things about CZ so I shot it. My reaction " WOW" A smooth trigger, great sights and a nice recoil. Two of the guys that work at the range said they traded in their Glocks for CZs. CZ will be my next pistol
Ive been at gunshow, ive hold Glock and yet im feeling undecisive but when i hold Cz.. it goes straight out at the counter 💪🤩
Love the look over the BLOCK. BLOCK fanboys would need to spend more money or mods to get some of features (trigger, front slide serrations, grip undercut) this new pistol already provides.
The quality of the fit and finish of the Czech CZ guns cannot be beat for the price.
