New CZ P-10 C Ported, the recoil tamer

It's compact, it's optic-ready, and it tames recoil and muzzle rise thanks to an integrated compensator and a cold hammer forged barrel that is 10% heavier: from CZ comes the new 9mm CZ P-10 C Ported model. As you can infer from the name, the latest addition to CZ pistol lineup is based on the CZ P-10 series, which means it's a striker-fired, polymer-framed gun. But the CZ P-10 C Ported has been designed with maximum focus on shooting control and user comfort while still being a 9mm everyday carry pistol.

CZ P-10 C Ported: the shooting comfort of a sport pistol in a carry gun

Thanks to a barrel that is 10% heavier and the large integrated compensator, the new CZ P-10 C Ported provides reduced recoil and muzzle rise. 

As already mentioned, compared to the standard CZ P-10 C the 4” cold-hammer forged barrel of the Ported model is 10% heavier to reduce recoil during firing. But the key feature is the large compensator port near the muzzle, designed to effectively reduce muzzle rise. To this the  CZ P-10 C Ported adds some more interesting highlights, starting from the modified slide ready for the mounting of red dot sights and featuring extended cocking serrations on the upper part for a secure grip under all conditions.  

The CZ P-10 C Ported uses a fiberglass-reinforced polymer for reduced weight and comes with an optic-ready slide. The grip and checkering were designed in accordance with the modern DiFEND methodology.

Speaking of comfort, the grip and and checkering were created in accordance with the modern DiFEND methodology that combines the use of software tools, sophisticated measuring devices,  digital models, strain gauges, and technology developed for NASA to prioritize ergonomics and user experience. Backstraps and grip panels are interchangeable, of course.

From this point of view you can appreciate the large port near the muzzle and the  extended cocking serrations on the upper part of the slide of the CZ P-10 C Ported.  Also worth of notice, the nice barrel crown.

You will also find the CZ P10 series' much-appreciated smooth trigger travel with short 4-mm reset, fully ambidextrous controls, and the today indispensable duster cover rail for attaching a flashlight or laser. Safeties include a trigger safety, trigger bar safety, and firing pin block. The CZ P-10 C Ported also comes with the same high-contrast, luminescent three-dot sights mounted on CZ P-09 NOCTURNE series to enhance the shooting experience even in low-light conditions.

The polymer frame is reinforced with fiberglass to improve lightness (overall, the pistol weighs just  760 g) and durability; metal parts are finished by the proven deep nitriding that CZ internally refers to as “BoBox”, which protects the pistol from rain, sweat, dust, and extreme temperatures.
