The CZ P-10C can be called one of the best striker-fired pistols out there with hardly any exaggeration.

It boasts solid ergonomics, and unique for a striker-fired model, a crisp trigger with minimal creep and a short, positive reset.

The CZ P-10C is one of the best striker-fired handguns in the industry, and one of America’s most popular.

But like all popular platforms, it’s not perfect. There are ways to make it better, and lots of them.

There are plenty of features that make Glock handguns popular, not only for duty carry but for personal protection as well as for sporting and competitive use.

Among these are the fact that these handguns are polymer-framed, which keeps weight down and streamlines maintenance, and the fact that they offer simple, basic aesthetics.

What sort of muzzleloader did you learn to shoot?

Was it a modern inline or did you learn on a sidelock like the rest of us?

If it was the latter, there’s no surprise there. Many a front stuffer learns the ropes on a caplock or even a flintlock shooting “holy black” and patched round balls.

In competition, how quickly you can reload will impact how quickly you can shoot, which means that it’s in your interest to practice reload drills till you can load and shoot as quickly as is safely possible.

Of course there are also implications associated with reload speed and concealed carry, too.
