Why does it hurt to use the CZp10c trigger?

[ART338WM]

Rented a CZ P10c yesterday and put 100 rounds through it. Great shooting gun, great trigger, but it simply beat the snot out of my trigger finger. I'm talking I wouldn't have shot it any more if you gave me free ammo. Granted I shot the CZ P10 after putting 100 rounds through a P320 Compact, but I put 300 more through the same P320/C today, and although my trigger finger experienced some discomfort, it was by no means enough to make me want to stop shooting.


Is it the Glock like safety lever? I'm guessing because I've only shot Glocks less than 20 rounds total. Or could I be doing something wrong? My Shield has a hinged trigger and I've shot it several times more than 200 consecutive rounds during a single range session and my trigger finger was no worse for wear. As a matter of fact no other HG I've ever shot caused my trigger finger this level of discomfort.

Sure am glad I had an opportunity to shoot a CZ P10 prior to buying as I was seriously considering buying one.

I shot one of these and it irritated me as well. Stings my trigger finger.

I think that it comes from the thickness of the safety dingus on the trigger. I have a P10C and love the thing, but as soon as CajunGunWorks releases their new trigger for it, I'm buying one for mine. Everything else about the gun is great but that dang trigger is a PITF (pain in the finger).

Also, if you tend to shoot with gloves, you don't notice it at all.

Yep. I bought a used P10c from the classifieds here for a fantastic deal and promptly sold it a week or two later because of this issue. Great gun in pretty much every other respect, but that trigger sucks. I'm looking forward to trying 88's out when CGW drops their new trigger to see if it improves the situation.

Dang. Been really thinking about getting one here lately.

Keep in mind everyone has different reactions to the trigger. Plenty of people have the gun and love it, or are like 88 and love it in spite of the trigger. If you have some place nearby to rent one, I would suggest trying it to get an on hands experience with it. Important for any gun purchase, but especially so for this gun IMO.

Might be your little girly hands.

I was sneaking a quick read at work (for some reason this site isn't blocked) and I almost laughed our loud like the kids do, which lets me know they are playing on their cmps and not working!

He may need to consider getting that little pink .380 back......

 

[churchmouse]

Thanks guys. Not sure what I would do with out you.....

The mouse shot my 4" S&W 500 magnum one-handed ..... three times !
I've never had anyone else do that .... and that should tell you something.
The CM roars !

Nope, the little pink gun resides at my house now. NFS.

I shot one at a top secret gathering last year, don't remember the trigger bothering me. Was only a mag or two though.

May not be something you're as susceptible to. I know after 50 rounds or so it bothered my finger enough that I stopped shooting the gun.

I think it's the trigger safety. I get the same irritation if I run a couple hundred rounds through my Glocks.

Had a glock that bit my trigger finger. A few passes on the edges of the trigger safety tab with 600 grit sand paper just to knock the sharp edges off cured the problem.

The Sig P320s had that trigger slap in some of the versions of it. They corrected it, hopefully it won't be back after the "voluntary upgrade".

Probably...
