So, my local gun store and range knows me well enough by now that they know what I like better than I do lol. Went in today with the explicit goal of handling as many handguns as possible to get a feel for a new carry piece, and had the CZ P-10C presented. Felt like John Wick at the Sommelier in chapter 2 lol. Anyway, I’ll be purchasing one ASAP, either when I get payed next month or sooner. My G19 Gen 5 is fine, but the CZ P-10 C felt like it was Taylor made for my hands, which is difficult due to having very very small hands with long-ish fingers.

Those were very popular models when I was in the industry, too. Better trigger than the glock and the low bore axis makes it less flippy.

I have a P10F. It is an excellent gun. They did a great job with the ergonomics on that gun especially with the swappable backstraps. As tera pointed out above, the trigger breaks better than a stock Glock and performs well right out of the box. In fact, it is one of my only guns that is bone stock. I haven't changed anything.
I'm sure you will love it once you make the purchase.

I'm going to echo the previous comments. I have a few CZs, and they are all quality guns. I will say that in my particular case, the trigger on my P10C was underwhelming at first.
As it turns out, that can happen and it's easy to fix. A couple of passes on the back side of the trigger with a fine file fixed the issue for me. I do recommend getting some 9mm snap caps and dry fire the gun a lot. The trigger will smooth up a bit, quite a bit in my case. I like it enough now that it's my current carry gun.

Dry fire drill is the way 👍
Edit: I got to play with a CZ Shadow 2 once. That thing absolutely ruined me for production guns.

Know what you mean. I own a couple of Tanfoglios, Stock IIIs, and it was the same for those.

Some CZ snobs look down on Tangfolios, but man, they can tune up really well.

I’ve got some but lost most of them over time, I’ll get more when I get he pistol. Snap caps are awesome. Got 2000 rounds of 9mm NATO that should help break it in with live fire too.

I'm glad you found something that feels "right" to you. For me, I have big hands, and I prefer the feel of my Berretta 92FS, and to a slightly less degree my FNX-45 (the size of the FN is right for my hands, but the texture of the grip is quite spicy without gloves on). I spent a lot of time with the M9 in my army days, and so the 92FS feels so familiar and "right" for my hands.

Fantastic single action trigger, but the thing is absolutely massive, like FN was trying to out-HK HK during the mid 2000s sidearm trial. Never handled a real 92FS, but my brother has a M9A3, it’s a little large for me but definitely quality.

It's just that I'm about six and a half feet tall (technically somewhere between 6'5" and 6'6").

I’m five five for reference, not even five and half feet lol.

I just got done purchasing it! My Pietta 1873 sold on consignment so it was 42 bucks to trade up to the CZ.

The CZ-P-10 C is definitely superior to the Glock 19 Gen 5, not just with subjective ergonomics, but with features such as glow in the dark sight dots. Attachments:

Please ignore my fingernails lol. I can do a tactical grip using the side front Fran and front trigger guard stippling much better than I can with the weirdly chonkey Glock. Also, glow in the dark sights.

I used to demo pistols for CZ before 'rona hit. The ergonomics of the CZ-75 and polymer framed CZs (P-07, P-10) are about the best out there for fitting a wide variety of hand sizes.

I carry a CZ P10c when I'm hunting. Also found it much more ergonomic than the Glock 19. I kinda regret not having bough the optics ready version but honestly iron sights work just fine for my applications (coup the grace on downed animals if the rifle cannot be brought to bear which is very rarely necessary in the first place). I have replaced the rear sight with an adjustable sight because I do occasionally take the gun to a 25m range for training and the standard sight wasn't ideal for that. Not that it's a match gun but it shoots quite well.

One of the members on the CZ Forum uses a red-dot equipped P-10c to shoot at 100 yards (from a rest).
The trigger on the pre-release P-10c was even better, but I think the lawyers got involved and they re-designed it prior to the official release. I was very sad when they made me return the pre-release version.
