THE CZickness XLIX....Tackling 2023 with CZ style...

[jagee]

Strangely enough, I have a CZ question.

I am the proud new owner of a P-10 C & P-10 F ... well, I've had them since late last year, but didn't get them out to the range until earlier today. I really like the way they feel and shoot ... and grip your hand ... there were impressions of the stippling in my hand for more than a few minutes after shooting!

Anyhow, after I got home, I somehow stumbled into the CGW website and noticed there are several parts available to replace the factory parts. I've read that the trigger is a good investment. What about the other parts ... firing pin, springs, etc.?

Also, the P-10 F came with factory installed night sights ... the P-10 C did not. Looking on the CZ-USA website they show three (3) different sets of night sights ... any idea what the difference is between them and which might be better suited on the P-10 C? Are there other night sight options that I should explore?

Inquiring minds want to know.

You've come to the right thread. I have no info for you, but the wizard and others will be along shortly.

You guys are just babies…I watched Elvis on the Ed Sullivan Show. Was even in black and white….

Baby? Maybe? But I'll take Martha Quinn over Elvis and Ed Sullivan any day and twice on Sunday ... in color or black and white!

Personally, my favorite sights period, not just for the CZ P10 series are Night Fision sights. I recently put the CGW flat aluminum trigger in my P10C OR that I carry and I love it. Very, very similar is the HBI Theta trigger, which is also quite nice and slightly cheaper. I don't know about any of the other parts, like the springs and firing pin, but I've carried and shot my P10C OR for years, probably have a couple thousand rounds through it and it runs like a champ. Never had a single issue with it, so I'm going to say that outside of night sights and a nicer trigger, you really shouldn't need to do anything else.

Before CGW had a trigger we could only get the HBI Industries trigger, which is what I have in mine, and I love it. WT recently put the CGW trigger in one of his and compared it to the HBI trigger and he feels like it is a little better than the HBI. I forget all of the upgrades that Ive done to mine, but if I were starting fresh I'd probably get the CGW and get the other upgrades as well just because.

Yeah, I think the CGW trigger was ever so slightly nicer, but it was just barely a difference. I did have to hold my finger a bit higher on the trigger than normal on the CGW trigger though, or it drug on the bottom of the trigger guard and was uncomfortable. Holding the trigger a bit higher fixed that issue.

Awesome info ... a lot to digest in just a few responses! As always the CZickos provide!

I did a quick run down to HHRP just before it got dark to run a few rounds through both of these beauties.

This pic took for ever to load . . . . was it just me?

Yes.

I have a CZ P-10F, C and S. I bought the P-10F used and it had an HBI trigger installed. The other 2 still have have the oem triggers.

While the HBI is a little lighter and a nice trigger, I have never shot my other P-10's and thought, "hey, I need to replace this with a nicer trigger". Someday I might add another HBI or CGW trigger to an order but it is a low priority for me.

Short version...IMHO, the CZ P-10 triggers are very nice and the aftermarket triggers are slightly better.

VERY nice Colts.

I prefer the larger photo files. It's nice to be able to zoom in for the finer details.

My P10C benefitted from a new trigger but my P10S was good from the factory.

VERY nice Colts.

I wish they were both Colts but the SAA is a Uberti and the 941 is a Taurus. As much fun as the SAA was to shoot, the 941 was a hoot to shoot. Even the 18# DA was still a blast with .22 Mag. I'll take a look inside sometime this spring and do some polish where needed, but for plinking cans, it was a blast

I do find myself thinking that a 38 Special S&W Model 60 with a 4" barrel would make a great 'around the house' gun.

Thus, my desire for large photos to zoom in on.

Been awhile since Uberti has made an appearance around here!

Excellent pieces.

It sounds like they ran fast, and sweet !

Great birds, terrible photography thru 3 pieces of glass with a camera phone at 4x or so.
