The CZ Shadow 2 Carry​

At its core, the CZ Shadow 2 Carry (S2 Carry for short) is an all-metal, 4-inch-barreled, 15-round-capacity, hammer-fired, double-action/single-action (DA/SA) 9mm pistol with a decocker. As of now, the street price hovers just shy of $1,400, though I’ve seen it as low as $1,299. I suspect that price will drop about $100 as the year goes on, assuming CZ keeps importing them to meet demand.

For that price, you get:
  • The pistol
  • Two 15-round magazines (CZ 75 small-frame compatible)
  • A cleaning kit (segmented rod and brush)
  • A manual
  • A warranty registration form
  • A cable lock
  • All neatly packaged in a CZ-branded hard case

when i received an email a month or so ago about this firearm, it became the 1st cz i would want to own. i've never found any cz handgun at a ffl place to even look at.............kinda wanna see if my wrist comply with the grip angle 1st............same with a 92/96, but did manage to hold 1 in okc tho.
 
I was able to fire a friends CZ a couple of months ago and I really liked it. The trigger pull seemed to be around 3 lbs and, frankly, I fired it better than my 1911s and Hi Powers. Therefore, I rode over to the LGS where they had one in stock:

I measured the trigger pull on mine and it was just under 3 lbs from the factory. The Holosun optic really helps my 78 year-old eyes. I've got just over 500 rounds through it without any issues.

I really wavered between on of these and my P229 Legion SAO…but, the Legion won out.
 
I have a Shadow 2 (Original, not “carry”. It’s heavy, but man does that thing shoot. By far THE most accurate handgun I’ve ever messed with in 56 years of fooling with ‘em. I’ve yet to see a Carry for sale, though the LGS has one in the rental rack (That they can’t sell🙄). Feels great in the hand.
 
I haven’t gone down this route yet. It’ll be a while before I get the capital to get past the CZ P10C.
