After receiving my pistol a couple of weeks ago, I have been working on breaking it in and completely familiarizing myself with it. After firing 200+ rounds, I have been looking at some upgrades. The stock sights have to be replaced since they are almost impossible to line up on targets further than 15+ yards. The model I purchased was a non-optic-ready one, so I will work with what I have. Trigger is meh, and I will be replacing it and looking at options currently. Ergon, HBI Theta, and Overwatch Precision are my main picks thus far. Springs will be replaced as necessary in order to further reduce recoil and give a lighter trigger pull. The guide rod and striker will be upgraded to steel rather than the stock polymer. Grip is definitely aggressive, and I will be getting either a Hogue rubber grip or Talon grip for it. While I am not really looking for competition-level upgrades, I do want it to be more fine-tuned to my needs and preferences.

Any interest in this item here before I move it over to ebay...? Want to give y'all first dibs if interested. -
Looking for a CZ P-10 Extended Takedown Plate in order to preserve what skin I have left on my fingers when disassembling the gun. My research showed galloway precision had one about five years ago, but not finding any available for purchase now. Any suggestions?
-
I tried the strong side draw as well and noticed it did not hurt as badly as I had expected, but it felt very uncomfortable. AIWB is not an option, unfortunately, due to my shoulder issues.
-
Talon Grips is actually on my radar as well, but I have not had any interaction with them as of yet.

Update: Got my P10c in and ran some rounds through after inspecting and cleaning. Found out pretty quickly that it did NOT like the Turan 124g HP since the first one I chambered hung up, and I ended up having to force rack the slide in order to eject the unspent round. CCI and Fiocchi ran flawlessly. I will definitely be upgrading the front sight as the three white dot system is difficult to see, but I still managed a decent group at 25 yards. Now, I just need to work on repetitions and work toward better grouping and speed as time goes along. The gun feels great in my hands, even with the needle-like stippling, but I think I will try the Hogue rubber grip for it and see how that feels in comparison. Pics will be added soon.

Lowering the price to $450 obo in an attempt to let y'all know I am legit being this is my first item for sale on this forum. Feel free to ask questions or message if necessary. -
Appreciate all of the feedback on this topic. I think I will go without on my carry, and look into a comp on my next handgun purchase instead. Without a true benefit, I don't see dropping the money on one when there is ammo to purchase instead

After EXTENSIVE research and experimentation, the only comfortable position to draw from for me is OWB Cross Draw. Now, I already know this is not a winner in past topics here (like I said, EXTENSIVE research), but due to my ailments, I strongly believe this will be best for me. With Tennessee being an Open Carry state, I know the option is there, and I intend to use it within reason. Others have replied in the past that open carry will scare anti-gunners and such with it being paraded around in open sight. While I cannot fully disagree with this mindset, I also think of how I feel when I see open carry around me. Thoughts going through my head are: Do they have the necessary training to open carry? Are they FULLY aware of their surroundings and not just the immediate threat? Does pride motivate them alone to open carry, or is it responsibility? These are questions I then ask myself and put myself in check. Open Carry is and is not a statement. Having the right is not enough for me to simply strap up and walk outside. Accountability has to be at the forefront of everytime I holster and walk outside. Light concealment is possible while still going open carry. Maybe, and I apologize for all the feathers I may ruffle, but maybe we could start working toward getting our rights back if we holstered for the right reasons each time and continued our training and education. Now, I am just an old feller who has decided that with this being my home till my boots are upside down in the dirt, I plan to protect everything I love here. When I was diagnosed with degenerative bone disorder, I thought I would not be able to hold a gun, much less carry one. Sometimes its the negatives in life that get you refocused on the positives. For me, the choice is OWB Cross Draw, and I will continue to practice and learn even when I have my gun on me. Just hoping others might read this and see the need vs the show. Y'all keep staying safe out there

I got to hold one at a shop last month, and then fired one a few days later. Amazing fit in the hands, trigger is nothing to sneer about, and the price was jaw-droppingly low. But, I chose to wait on my purchase since it is so new, and wanted to make certain I would not be the one with the gun that decided to malfunction. So I went with the reliable CZ for my carry weapon for now.

Hey y'all, I recently purchased a CZ P10c online (great deal that I could not pass up), and lo and behold, the Compensated model hit a ridiculously low price in the past couple of days. The model I purchased is unthreaded, so I was curious if anyone had any experience with the rail mount compensators out there. Looking at a couple of options that not only help with felt recoil, but also assist in follow-up shots. And yes, I do wish I had the money to just buy another CZ right now, but it is not quite in the cards.

Browning Hi-Power Detective Slide Kit 9mm Recently found this slide kit and wanted to offer it up here. Looking for $500 or reasonable trade in a hunting rifle or, as my wife is currently searching for a run down pop up camper we can gut and rebuild for our business. Feel free to ask questions, and I will do my best to answer promptly. In Sparta

Went and shot a few different models, including the Canik TP9 Elite SF, CZ P10c, and the Ruger RXM in an attempt to further narrow down my choice for a carry firearm. A purchase was made online yesterday for a CZ P10c. That pistol not only felt better to me, but it was almost effortless to fire follow-up shots. Now begins the task of finding the best holster to use in an open carry cross draw role. I have to admit this is quite the adventure, and I'm having fun piecing everything together!

Would love to find a CZ p10c or a Stoeger str9 close to that price range. Definitely looking into safest option vs overall price. Adulting sucks sometimes...lol
