Description
The CZ P-10 S takes everything that made the P-10 C a hit and shrinks it down into a package built for everyday concealed carry. At 6.6 inches overall and just 24.4 ounces, it's easy to carry all day, but it doesn't feel like a compromise gun when you pick it up. CZ's grip geometry keeps the bore axis low, which means muzzle flip stays manageable even in a subcompact frame, and the dual recoil spring assembly helps soak up the impulse in a way you don't always feel with guns this size. The fiber-reinforced polymer frame paired with the black nitride-finished steel slide gives you a setup that's both light and built to take some abuse.
What Sets the CZ P-10 S Apart From the Pack
The trigger is a genuine standout. CZ engineered it to minimize creep and stacking, with a clean break and a short, positive reset that makes follow-up shots feel controlled rather than rushed. Three interchangeable backstraps (small, medium, and large) let you tune the grip fit to your hand rather than just living with whatever shape came in the box. The deep beavertail and undercut trigger guard encourage a high, secure grip, which works in your favor whether you're running drills at the range or drawing from a holster in a hurry. Front and rear slide serrations give you something to grab onto even with wet or gloved hands.
CZ P-10 S Controls and Carry-Ready Features
Ambidextrous controls are a real priority here. The slide release is oversized relative to a lot of comparable subcompacts and works from either side, and the magazine release is reversible with just a few minutes of work, so left-handed carriers aren't stuck with a subpar setup. An integrated Picatinny rail on the dust cover means you can mount a compact weapon light or laser without needing any adapters. The cold hammer-forged barrel CZ uses across the P-10 family is known for long-term accuracy and durability, and it's the same quality you'd find on full-size CZ pistols. The 3-dot luminescent fixed sights are straightforward and visible in low light, and the overall package ships with two 10-round magazines ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the CZ P-10 S handle recoil for a subcompact?
Better than you'd expect. CZ designed the P-10 S with a low bore axis that keeps the muzzle from flipping as hard, and a dual recoil spring assembly that stages the recoil impulse rather than letting it hit all at once. Most people find it shoots noticeably softer than other subcompacts of similar size and weight.
Can left-handed shooters use the CZ P-10 S comfortably?
Yes, and CZ put real thought into it. The magazine release is reversible and can be swapped to the right side in just a few minutes without any special tools. The slide release is also ambidextrous, so southpaws get full functionality without workarounds.
What kind of sights does the CZ P-10 S (MPN 01560) come with?
This specific model (01560) ships with 3-dot luminescent fixed sights, which glow after light exposure and are visible in low-light conditions. They're metal sights with a practical, snag-resistant profile that works well for carry. If you want tritium night sights, there are other P-10 S variants available that include them from the factory.
Is the CZ P-10 S a good choice for concealed carry?
It's built specifically for that role. The subcompact frame and 6.6-inch overall length keep the print manageable, while the ergonomics and trigger quality make it far more comfortable to shoot than a lot of micro-compact options. The interchangeable backstraps let you dial in the grip fit, and the Picatinny rail gives you the option to add a light if your holster setup allows.
Does the CZ P-10 S have a manual safety?
No external manual safety. The P-10 S relies on a firing pin block safety and a trigger safety, which is the standard setup for modern striker-fired carry pistols. As long as nothing is pressing on the trigger, the gun won't fire, and there's no lever to forget to disengage under stress.
Can the CZ P-10 S use magazines from other P-10 models?
Yes, with some caveats. The P-10 S can physically accept P-10 C and P-10 F magazines for use on the range with more capacity, though you'll typically want a grip sleeve or adapter to handle the extra length comfortably. The included 10-round magazines are flush-fitting and designed for concealed carry use.
