CZ Shadow 2 is a full-size pistol with a metal frame, developed by the Czech company Česká zbrojovka (CZ) specifically for sport shooting, primarily for IPSC and USPSA Production Division disciplines. It is an evolution of the popular CZ 75 model and its sporting variant, the SP-01 Shadow, combining modern engineering solutions and ergonomics aimed at achieving maximum accuracy and firing speed.

Design Features:

Low Bore Axis: The slide moves inside the frame (unlike most pistols where it sits above), reducing muzzle rise during firing and speeding up return to the sight line.

Extended Slide Cover: The increased mass at the front of the pistol further stabilizes the weapon, reducing recoil.

Ergonomics: A high beaver tail and undercut trigger guard allow the shooter’s hand to be positioned as close as possible to the bore axis, improving control.

Adjustable Magazine Release Button: Configurable in three positions, making it convenient for shooters with different hand sizes.

Advantages:

Exceptional accuracy and stability due to the combination of weight, design, and a high-quality barrel.

Smooth and crisp trigger mechanism, often regarded as one of the best in its class among production models.

High reliability and wear resistance, proven by its use in world-class competitions.
