The CZ P-09 is a polymer-framed, semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod (CZUB) in the Czech Republic. It was introduced in 2013 as an updated version of the CZ 75 P-07 Duty. The P-09 is designed for use by law enforcement, military personnel, and civilian gun owners.
The P-09 has a unique look with its three-dot sights and angular contours that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional for quick target acquisition. The slide is made from high-quality steel and features front and rear serrations for easy handling. It also has an accessory rail for mounting lights and lasers.
The P-09 has a 4.53-inch barrel and an overall length of 8.1 inches. It weighs in at 29.5 ounces unloaded and has a magazine capacity of 19 rounds when chambered in 9mm (it is also available in .40 S&W with a capacity of 15 rounds). The trigger pull is crisp and smooth, with a short reset, making it easy to shoot accurately.
One of the standout features of the P-09 is its ergonomics. The grip is textured and adjustable to fit a variety of hand sizes comfortably. The magazine release and slide stop are ambidextrous, making the gun accessible to left-handed shooters. The trigger guard is undercut, allowing for a high grip and reduced felt recoil.
The P-09 also has a number of safety features, including a firing pin block, loaded chamber indicator, and a manual safety. The manual safety is frame-mounted and can be easily engaged or disengaged with the thumb of the shooting hand.
The P-09 has received positive reviews from gun enthusiasts and professionals alike. It has been praised for its accuracy, reliability, and versatility. It is also relatively affordable compared to other high-end polymer-framed pistols on the market today.
If you are looking for a high-quality, durable, and accurate pistol at a reasonable price, the CZ P-09 is definitely worth considering.
