CZ Shadow 2 Carry: First Impressions

[Talyn]

From Uncle Zo...

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

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.
